Sinatra, Cadillacs, & Mrs. Cleaver

Good Morning! Lately, I've been on a 50's kick. Yea, I've always loved 50's, but really addicted recently.
You know, Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Sammy Davis and the like.
I listen to this stuff while I play xbox, drink coffee, anytime, anywhere. Therefore, I could only wish to be listening to it while strolling along in something with fins. Fins. Gotta love 'em.


I don't want hydraulics, flame stripes, or demeaning sayings on my car, I just want big, 4500lb. fins. Classy fins.

But of course, you can't listen to Frank Sinatra or ride around in a Cadillac without taking the time to remember Barbara Billingsley, otherwise known as Mrs. Cleaver.

Mrs. Cleaver, housewife from the television series Leave It To Beaver.

Barbara passed away recently, and the media brought to my attention her style. The 50's housewife style. Wear pearls while vacuuming, what a thought! If I could find a girl that would dress like a 50's housewife, well, yea. It's just so cool!




Totally cool.

That's all for now, just had to share what I'm diggin' right now.

A Pondering

Photography is so cool. Once you forget you're looking through a viewfinder, you're set. You watch life happen. The only difference is, as a photographer, you can capture life, and share it with the world in seconds. As if everyone was there. Are you a pro photojournalist? You have one of the coolest jobs ever. You get to watch life, the ups and the downs, but then, you get to show the world what you experienced. You have one of the most important jobs, too.

Think about this next time you're shooting candid work. You're providing the world with an experience. Take pride in that.
