Happy Birthday Matt

Today is my friend, Matt's (~Pikafart ) Birthday. He's an awesome friend and a very talented young artists. Matt is the type of person who is always happy to help anyone and never asks anything in return.  I wanted to do something special for his Birthday; so I decided to make a Journal feature dedicated to him. Please look through his gallery, Fav. his works, give a Llama , and just say "Happy Birthday" to him.
"Matt. I know you've been feeling down in the dumps lately; but I hope this puts a smile on your face."

GOOD NEWS EVERY ONE ......

I'm Back.


Ok. No one gives a crap. I'm fine with that.
But that doesn't change the fact that I'm back after several months.

First off, to all the people who has sent me comments; I'm so very sorry I've taken such a  long time  to respond to you.  My fault completely. I will respond too every comment sent to me ( It just might take dang near forever).
  The last few months have been extremely  busy for me.  It started with a crushing blow to me; the death of my best friend and companion of 21years: Nermal (my small black kitty). Her sudden passing sent me into a dark place; but by the grace of God, I was able to find my way back into the light. Just last week I adopted a new Cat from a local No-kill animal shelter called "The house of Mews". Her name is 'Koshka (its female-cat in Russian) and she is a 4 year old Russian blue.  What's amazing about her, is how incredibly affectionate she is. 'Koshka loves to ride on my shoulders as I walk around the house.   She makes me so happy.
   In other news, I've discovered another new Joy in my life. Conventions and Cosplay. A friend of mine, here on DA, had been telling me for the longest of time how much fun going to Conventions and dressing up was. So I decided to give it a shot. And what do you Know, It's the  MOST FUN I've ever experienced.  A whole new world suddenly opened up for me. I was surrounded by thousands of my fellow geeks (It's difficult to put into words the feeling of being at home with all these people.).  My first Convention was GMX (Geek Media Expo) www.geekmediaexpo.com/ held in Nashville, Tn.  Its a Multi-Fandom convention (meaning it coves Gaming, Science Fiction, Fantasy, Robotics, Movies, Music, Anime, Technology, Cosplay, Steam Punk, Sports,  and everything in-between) designed with people my age in mind (20's and 30's). I built two costumes to take with me to the Con.: a Link (The Legend of Zelda) outfit and a Vault Dweller (Fallout 3 and New Vegas) costume.  I was at first worried that I might be the only guy there in Cosplay; but to my amazement 1/3 people were dressed up.  I was able to me hundreds of new people and make dozens of new friends. I took tons of photos; some of which I'll be posting in my Scrap folder.  Simply Fantastic.
    A few weeks after I got back home, I discovered another small Con in my home town of Memphis: The Memphis Comic and Fantasy Convention. This time I was able to convince my little brother to skip a few days of college and come with me. I dressed up as the Vault Dweller (again) and he went as Dr. Who (the 10th Dr.). The contrast in both size and content, between the two cons, was striking. However the one thing that stayed the same was the people attending. Once again I got to meet and befriend dozens of new (and a few that I'd meet at GMX) friendly folks.  And a wonderful time was had by all.
   I know this is a rather long and boring story, but I'll try to sum it all up simply.  After several months of emotional lows and highs, I've returned to Deviant Art. Now it's time for me to get back to my nature photography. I've got about 20 photos ready to post and several hundred waiting editing. So more then enough to keep be busy for some time. I hope you like them.

Happy Trials, my friends.
