It’s a new year. You can be anything you want. You can do anything you want. You have nothing to lose. And everything to gain.

At Pennsic, the parties apparently used to be much more diverse, and, well, weird. But with age and success, things seem to homogenize. You can basically be assured of a bar, a drum circle, and fire demonstrations of some kind. This picture came from Vlad’s camp, the night of the slave auction, I think.

A year ago tonight I met this wonderful woman. And now my life has changed in many ways, and I love her more all the time.

I love this photo. He just nailed the depth of field. The colors and the lighting are incredible. The urban-porn of all these different people going in every direction from the train platform. The single, centered vanishing point. The halo around the girl.
