Howdy!

My internship is nearly over :-(. Monday is the last day. At some point next week I am going to make a portfolio post, somewhere around 20 images from the entirety of the experience. In all reality, there will be a goodly amount of duplicates, but I think it will still be worth posting so you can see the best of the summer! I’m going to sit down with a few of the other photographers in the office. But here are some from the last few days. Enjoy!

Well that about does it! Big stuff on the horizon, lets see where things go! Now if only I could figure out how to wake up in the mornings…
