Vulnerable Raging Barriers.
paredes repugnantes fumadores mortales que hacen girar las almas cosmos sueños altos,
appellationen Komplikationen lästige Antworten eminent Hoffnungen unter Robben,
родовые счета цепи субмерсией коралла говорят эндшпиль страдания шахматных рты,
discinctus viribus repellere consilia legibus coercendo fronte inclinata ungues waltzing oculi filiorum,
خنق البرق التعرق قادة شره الضحية المريضة والسناجب بطن الصفراء إخفاء,
μακρινή πολυλογάς δυνατά παπαγάλους ζηλεύει σπασμένα χέρια αιμορραγία σκοντάψει δρόμους λιοντάρια φωνές,
obsceniteiten slepen accouchements gek snijmessen plunderen steden diefstal hounds,
koordinačné opatrenia trojrozmerné míľ pozície predstaviť horizontálnej perspektívy pochybila diagramy,
成功した何百万一貫した試み分布が移動し、外国の海岸を旅達する将来の地域.

Now I don't want anyone to feel they have to feed me compliments after this. I just want to be honest with my fans and I wanted my pages to be a place I can share my thoughts with you all and keep myself accountable. Bare with me
The past few months I have been really down on my work, myself. I think I am not good enough to continue, why am I here. I know we all get like this, its just how artists are. But I started to lose sight of why I started in the first place. I really have been down with having no engagement on my page (Facebook) anymore. Thinking damn man my work must suck, nobody clicks like on it. Now I know facebook doesn't show many ppl my posts even with over 15K fans but I still can't get it through my head that's why. I feed myself over and over again, no I must just suck that bad. (Bare with me) I have had this on my mind way more than I should. And I even know likes don't mean shit. It shouldn't and doesn't define an artist. But I still feed myself that bull. I tell myself out of 15K fans this is what you get. Why are you doing this. I didn't start to be popular, or get a shit ton of like or whatever. But we do it, we all do it,. I don't care who you are. We are here sharing for a reason. We obviously want people to see our work so I would definitely be lying if I said it didn't bother me. And it only continues to get worse. Its not that I need anyone's acceptance or anything like that. It doesn't bother me when others don't like my work. I shoot for me and have the style I have because I like it. But at the same time although I know I do not need acceptance from anyone. It does feel great when you know you aren't talking to yourself when you post, it feels great when you know people actually see you and like your work, right? Of course it does. You would be lying if you said it didn't. We all share because we want others to see our work and we want to share it with the world.
Now my whole point of this post is to say, I definitely lost sight of why I started, why I am doing this. I started to make memories for my children. To have an outlet for me. To have something for me to love and do in my own time. Something to help me heal in my journey from my past. Something to help me get my thoughts and emotions out. Although yes, it feels amazing when I know a bunch of ppl see me and do love what I post but its not why I started. Its not what I am doing here. We tend to lose sight of things and fall off track. I know I do a lot with all I do in life. I am far from perfect. But as long as we get back on track and continue trucking forward, that's what matters, right? I am frustrated with engagement. I am sure a lot of us are. It does make me feel like crap and not good enough. Even though, like I said I KNOW it doesn't define people. I see the most amazing artists on a daily basis with thousands of fans get no engagement almost. So, I need to get back on track and get my mind straight with knowing why I am here and getting that bull crap out of my head. Keep doing what I love and do it the best I can and know how.
Life is hard man, so hard. Life is frustrating. We don't know the whys or what ifs. But we certainly can change and fix the way we look at things. We can change our outlook on anything. And thats what I am trying to do. I know I am not the only one that feels this way. And that goes for anything I post. So hopefully my thoughts on my pages can help others struggling through life or anything that they do.
Like I said above. I want my pages to be real and honest with my fans and I want them to be places I can share my thoughts and stay accountable if needed. If I can help others in the process that's just a bonus to me.
Staying focused and on track and keeping in mind why I do what I do is something I am working on. That goes for anything I do, not just photography.
As always. Thanks for reading my thoughts and statuses. Always appreciated.
This is an image I took when I was doing the still photography on a short film called WUSS on IMDB www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=6ET6ibK...
Every image tells a story, but some images define a story. This portrait was chosen as the official poster image for the short film WUSS, capturing the essence of its tone and emotion. The expression in his eyes, the subtle tension in his expression/posture, and the cinematic lighting all contribute to a visual that speaks before a single word is spoken.
This image is not just a still, it’s a moment, a feeling, a preview of a larger narrative. Can a single frame capture the weight of a film? This one tries.

I just had this enormous dinner for my mom's friend at this Chinese restaurant. I don't know why I always feel like throwing up after I eat Chinese food .. even though I'm Chinese. =( But I mean especially the super oily seafood-y kind. I FEEL SICK NOW!

This week has been a whole lot more positive for me. I've had a few wobbles here and there but I'm generally feeling chirpier and more positive. This time of year can be difficult for many and my heart goes out to them especially.
Special thanks to my other half for going out in the pouring rain with me and holding my camera up high for me.

African elephant (Loxodonta africana) called Ndlulamitsi living in an extended family at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. Ndlula (for short), whose name means “taller than trees”, can be identified by her great height and by her right tusk, which curves underneath her trunk.

Have you ever been in love? Horrible, isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens your heart and it means someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses. You build up this whole armor, for years, so nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life . . . You give them a piece of you. They don't ask for it. They do something dumb one day like kiss you, or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so a simple phrase like maybe we should just be friends or how very perceptive turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a body-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain.
- Neil Gaiman
We've broken each other's walls down to reveal that we are similar on the inside. Fearing vulnerabity we mask ourselves to rest of the world, but we are transparent to each other.

i see this every day as i drive my many routes...
it never ceases to call to me.
these lonely trees, huddling together...
against the elements.
the open sky offers no cover.
vulnerable.
It would be hard to find a more vulnerable place than the Maldives, the lowest lying country in the world, meriting its own entry in the Guinness Book of Records. Every one of the Maldives' 1200 islands, 200 of them inhabited, are suffering from erosion. On all but one, one can see coconut and Pandanus trees lying dead in the sea after the sand holding their roots washed away.
"For the Maldives, 350 is more than just a number: it is a passport to survival for our entire nation" - Quote from an email from His Excellency President Mohamed Nasheed of Maldives to the Global Work Party 101010
Location: K. Gulhi, Maldives

The service stations are the most vulnerable sites to sexual exploitation of children
and adolescents on the Brazilian roads.
The conditions of the offered services at these places reflect the very bad situation of the drive truckers, and also a silent complicity in relation to sexual exploitation.
Indirectly, the owners of service stations benefit it as a source of income for their business.
"Vulnerability is the birthplace of love, belonging, joy, courage, empathy, and creativity. It is the source of hope, empathy, accountability, and authenticity. If we want greater clarity in our purpose or deeper and more meaningful spiritual lives, vulnerability is the path." ― Brené Brown
For Self Portrait Sunday, with the theme "vulnerable".
Our third major leopard encounter was with a lovely female African leopard Panthera pardus pardus). It was nearly 7pm and the light was beginning to fade, but she was still clearly visible lying on a branch. After a while she sat up and looked out beyond our vehicles. I think dinner was on her mind. She must have seen something because she suddenly bounded down the tree to the ground, walked a bit through the grass, and then disappeared.

Conservation status: Vulnerable
Vulnerable (IUCN 3.1)[2]
A Vulnerable species is one which has been categorized by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as likely to become Endangered unless the circumstances threatening its survival and reproduction improve.
An adult male sand lizard (Lacerta agilis) basks in the open in his conspicuous breeding colours. Not only is he vulnerable to predators such as kestrels but he is also on a particular scrap of heath that requires urgent management (although a small amount was done last winter) to prevent gorse encroachment. Five years ago I recorded around 60 animals in less than half one hectare, yesterday numbers seen were around 10% of that. Taken during a licensed survey, and the individual lizard was not disturbed.
