In my moment of fame

Hi, for those who are coming from this link:

the proposal *unedited*

Here’s the story:

I was biking back with my designer friend Megan Vo from a new startup space in SE Austin, called The Chicon Collective, it’s just starting out, but I think it’s going to be huge.

We had a couple beers and food in us… so we were tired by the time we reach the capital building. We stopped for a quick break, when Megan spotted the couple. I tried to get as close as possible, since my camera actually doesn’t have a zoom setting (I shoot primes only). I think I got a pretty decent shot.

The irony of this whole situation is that while I stress how important Photoshop and processing RAW images is to photography, the image I uploaded to imgur is actually a low quality jpeg, since I was at work (yes I’m admitting it now) when I put it up on reddit.

I plan to post process the image, and put up a final version for the couple to have, entirely free (maybe 2 beers and a meal >_<??)

-Where can you meet me?

-Every other Thursday in Austin at Google +’s Drink and Click ATX

 

If you work for flickr.com or Olympus, I need to speak to you about something.

 

That is all, I’m free for beer most nights in Austin! Cheers!
