AWOL

I’ve had questions in the comments for my photos asking where I’d gotten to over the past few months when I wasn’t updating this site. I had increasing problems with illness that led to a health scare back at the end of May. This left me with two choices: Clean up my diet and start exercising, or say goodbye to my sigmoid colon. I haven’t been posting many photos because most of my energy has gone into repairing the damage from 25 years of physical inertia and poor nutrition.

I’m 30 lbs lighter, can run 5 kilometres without a problem now, and am training to run a half marathon by November. This is in sharp contrast to January of 2009 where I weighed 264 lbs and couldn’t run as far as a city block without keeling over.

All of which doesn’t leave much spare time for photography. I’m hoping that living 20 years longer will even up the score.
