Things were picking up and I was busy shooting again. I was stressed out a bit lately so I thought “hey, I should just take a break and drive and shoot around.” So I took a day off work (and by that I mean NO work at all). I went to White Rock early for an early brunch, then went to Steveston and chilled for a while. I then went out for a coffee with my laptop in the evening.

When I went home, I said this to myself: “I need to do this more often.” I’ve been shooting quite a bit since last summer and haven’t really been stopping down till early Feb of this year. Things picked up again during May and I realized that I’ve never really fully relaxed myself when I had free time. It was quite a eye opener to myself.

I had been shooting so much paid work at a point where I was a little scared that I was doing it just to pay the bills. I took a step back  and realized that I was pushing myself forward so much that I wasn’t enjoying life all that much. Now picking up the camera is now an enjoyment again :)

Enjoy the photos :)

Finding time is never hard if you have enough dedication and when you use your time wisely. I happen to shoot Darius’s Mitsubishi EVO IX earlier this week. These are pretty rare in Canada because they’re never sold locally so pretty much everyone of them are imported to Canada from the US. This car is DD (daily driver, sometimes) and a weekend track warrior. Very clean! Only one shot though but the car is pretty flush!

PS: I’m prepping my car for May 22nd track day at Pacific Raceway in Seattle. More updates later :)
