gearfaggotry = measurebator

I hate people whose first question on seeing my photos is What camera do you use?

could not have said that any better. Perfect.


But you could make it more succinct. "This is exactly what the world needs, another Merrick."


Haven't had a boss since 2005.

You can be anything you want to be Stonefiend

Here's a thought for the day - "You will find as you go through life that those who give advice most freely are precisely the individuals who are least qualified to do so. Busy, successful people don’t have an interest in telling you how to live your life. They are busy living their own. Failures or mediocre people have all the time in the world. They also delight in seeing you fail, and are quick to say “I told you so” when you experience a temporary setback. If someone tells you that what you are attempting to achieve is impossible or not worth the effort, take a close look at them and what they have accomplished with their lives. The chances are good that you will find they haven’t done much. Successful people are optimistic people. They have the habit of success because they learned long ago to listen to themselves and not to those who would like to see them fail."

Like Ali, tell the fucking bitter doubters "Ima show you, how great I am."

Took R&I over a year to pay me for a couple of photos. Do not plan to make your living doing climbing photography.

Oh and have a blast with the Weddings. I have a hard time here in El Paso, as everyone wants me to shoot quinceaneras and I fucking refuse to shoot them. My current plan is to get debt free and revisit photography on my own terms. I am positive I will always have a day job. At least I will be able to pay for the travel once I start my travel photography career, when I retire.

Good luck.


just got paid for work that appeared in January.

just enought to cover the cost of fixing my camera in January.

i wonder what it's like to be Simon Carter?

or, you know, one of those guys.

edit to include that i just recieved an industry email from UC/Climbing addressed to photographers saying that they are trying to clean up their act...........

I believe thats what your mother asked to do at the hospital where you were born, but they said that if a baby starts to eat its own shit as early as you did that pretty much no one wants to adopt it and that she would be better off keeping it or throwing it out. As we see today, she opted not to throw you in the garbage. How unlucky for the world.
