My First Moon Shot of 2020 1/11/20
So this poem, or song, whatever I change it into eventually is not because of anything happening to me or my own. It is just something for anyone who has suffered a loss or anyone who is in tune with the universe and has a connection with it.

New Year 2020
It is a brand New Year folks and time to make some resolutions, or is it? I used to make resolutions that I failed to complete. For years I did this and I felt like a failure because I couldn't own up to what I said I was going to do. Then I realized what a waste of time it was worrying about it. I also realized why even wait until the New Year to make a resolution.
My life really started changing when I moved from Kingman, Arizona to North Carolina and back. I threw myself into my Photography that I failed miserably at constantly. With each failure though, I realized I was starting to become more successful but it was also because of the people around me helping me. I am so blessed to have family, friends and colleagues around me that had faith in me. I started to have faith. Then it happened......I got pushed out of my comfort zone.
I met the Mickey Utley Band and things started changing for me. I have always shot bands and I love doing it, but something was different. I was being challenged by Mickey Utley himself by pushing me out of my comfort zone and pretty much stating that I was doing it lol, and I did. I started picking up graphics arts design skills and now I am learning and it's not stopping.
From there I met a few other bands that I've had the pleasure to shoot along with some of my other favorites such as the Rivals and Black Lemon, two amazing bands and friends as well. They have all challenged me and believed in me. People may think it is easy to shoot in low light, bad light and multi colored light with bands that are constantly moving and have shadows, it is not easy at all. It takes technique and skill, something that I am learning more and more about each time. On January 18th, I get to practice my raw video skills with another band in Las Vegas and I couldn't be more excited.
