Miss Viet Georgia / VAC Lunar New Year 2011

Extra Pix! Notes: I draw.  I take photos.  I don’t speak Vietnamese. 😉  These are the silly photos I usually end up liking. …Team Blanco, white is for winnahs!   Apparently everyone got the inception to wear white in the dream state.  Hey, those photos look familiar. 🙂

LAS Ball Recap

Laotian American Society   |   6th Annual Charity Ball  |   November 20, 2010 Hi Team, I would like to thank everyone involved in the LAS Ball. Even though I looked liked I was stressed out (which I was…) I think overall it was our most impressive one yet, in the event’s 5+ year history. There is […]

Atlanta Dragon Boat Festival 2010

View all posts tagged: Atlanta Dragon Boat Festival Notes:  Thanks to everyone for coming out to participate in this year’s Dragon Boat Race!  I think the best times were when we just sat around and talked and when we threw the football and frisbee.  Oddly enough, I didn’t take a single picture of a boat or heat this year.  I did […]

Dragon*Con in Infrared

Notes: Didn’t get to shoot much of the parade in IR due to me forgetting to charge the battery…but what I did get sure was creepy looking… 😈

Video: RLCD Festival

Notes: Just random clips thrown together, 5D mk II and D90, mostly handheld, and of course manual focus on everything.  One could see the advantages of the little “HD” cameras out there with their extreme depth of focus (i.e. every unnecessary thing in focus), but I still like the messups and the old 16mm look.  Song is […]

AAPA Awards

AAPA Convention | Marriott Marquis | Atlanta, GA When I was a kid, I wore thick glasses and read a lot of books.  Relatives would call me “little doctor.”  I guess it would have been a smarter career move, instead of this whole “artist / photographer / documentarian / lazy thinker” joyride that I’ve been on […]

Wat Sattha Dhamma

Wat Sattha Dhamma | Alto, GA Random Notes: Like most Lao things, humble beginnings on this one as well, but there aren’t many times in America these days where you can witness an old timey barn raising, people pulling together to build something.  Time will tell if this becomes a Lao “Bonnaroo” field, and more complaints from […]

Room to Read Event

The Lovett School | Atlanta, GA Notes: John Wood had a pretty comfy position at Microsoft ten years ago.  While travelling through Nepal he visited a quaint school in the mountains and found their “library” was merely a filing cabinet with things left over from hikers and travelers.  Apalled at this he vowed to return with more […]
