Gomar's Archives: Candids/Portraits

     It's people like GaGa who make me want to get into the photography business. You gotta give the girl credit for having the audacity to arrive in a "vessel" at the Grammies. 

     Although her latest single is somewhat bland and obviously distinct to her previous records, she has no problem reinventing herself. That's what I'm about. You gotta push boundaries and really, truly define yourself as an individual before you go out and make impact and change the world. 

     What I am saying is this... Bravo GaGa. 
GaGa is photographed as part of a spread in March's Vogue.
     And now on to me! Aha! I've been taking pictures. Haven't been getting the wanted results but with time, like wine, I'll get better.

     Sometimes it's just finding the write time to actually photograph. I try between writing stories for the paper, writing in general, studying, reading the Stephen King book I've had for three months, picking up an interest in science, finishing a few art projects, catching up on work trying to pull my straight "B"s into "A"s, studying to be confirmed... Hard work I tell ya. Oi. 

    Most of these are recent; just didn't get around to posting them. Some w/ flash some w/o... Honestly I think they look fine yet I feel like I've broken rules using the flash. Ehhh... They are what they are. 

Chancey and Tracy actin' a fool while working the food drive. 

Salmon wasn't too far behind. 

The Arrow Christmas party. They weren't the only ones laughing. 

Watching Mr. Calvert play was beyond awesome. 

Mitch was emulating his inner GaGa. 

My Padrino Manuel playing my mom a tune on her birthday. 

My niece and nephew. 

And the oldest picture on here... me and cousin Brian. He didn't want to be with anyone else that day on our trip to the water park. Here he was handing me the small rocks he was stepping on. He thought it was the greatest thing.
