Photogenized

Brian is taking a photography class during the first Summer Session at UCI and needed a 35mm camera with adjustable lens. Being the good brother I am (is that grammatically correct?), I paid him a visit with what my parents had to offer.

Brian is currently working the front desk at the UCI housing office. MESA COURT!

Look at that dirty ass mustache. Fuckin' gross son.

So this is what Brian does at work: goes online to nikeskateboarding.org

And talks on the phone and looks at pictures... On top of that, free housing on campus? Pretty good gig I'd say.

After finding out that the cameras we had weren't gonna work for his class, he and Trish had to make a trip to Newport Beach to the camera store.

Pretty cool ride. Not so cool licence plate.

Our destination.

Much to my surprise, this place had more than vintage cameras. It had its fair share of bike frames, handles, wheels, and other accessories. The owner said that he started the bike thing a few months ago and has really just picked up for him by word of mouth.

And vintage sunglasses for $10.

Brian ended up buying a Canon. Of course I had to pick up the shades.

Back to the dorm to drop off Trish. Shoe picture!

No time to relax though. Everyone was hungry and we drove to the local Whole Foods Market. This one is by far the largest one I've seen. It's about the size of a Walmart.
Photobucket

Got pretty lazy and didn't take any pictures of the food, just of people eating.

Nina and Jenn enjoy their tostada bowl. Noodles...not so much.

My steezy ginger ale.

And Brian's "Muscle Water", which was less satisfying with each sip.

As far as Brian's camera, turns out that his dormmate Brandon actually had the same exact camera. So Brian didn't really need to buy one in the first place. Good job Brian. (FAIL)

I think my own photography skills are pretty good. Let me know if you need any tips brudder.
