Title: Re: where is cal gecko? Post by: Rennsurfer on September 23, 2008, 22:54:26 pm Us Marks are a rather bizarre breed. We like to sometimes go offa the radar and do skids. Hence, the term skid mark.

(http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3163/2884653127_17e6ef18ba.jpg) (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3108/2881660604_537c9193d2.jpg) (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3084/2883713429_1caf822de6.jpg) (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3123/2884550748_a76db3fb49.jpg) (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3144/2883714585_8c3c3827e2.jpg) Title: Re: where is cal gecko? Post by: Jim Ratto on September 25, 2008, 16:18:46 pm good.... stick around Mark....
Tha pic of the Miata and the front loader is down right spooky.... I like. Title: Re: where is cal gecko? Post by: cal_gecko on September 25, 2008, 17:12:45 pm Thanks.. yeah, I'm not going nowhere.. even though others might wish otherwise ;) . ..
Would it help if I put a VW logo on my Miata? :o Title: Re: where is cal gecko? Post by: Diederick/DVK on September 25, 2008, 17:15:13 pm i thought the miata thing was settled...
no disrespect but you don't need to look for another argument. amazing photography though. i love the dark and intense colours!! Title: Re: where is cal gecko? Post by: cal_gecko on September 25, 2008, 17:16:58 pm hahaha... No more arguments/debates. just joking around at my own expense (which I tend to do frequently). Thanks for the comments on the photography. If I could find a way to turn it into a career, I'd be out of the office job in a heartbeat.
Title: Re: where is cal gecko? Post by: Rennsurfer on September 25, 2008, 17:35:14 pm Cool pictures, Mark. I agree with you regarding the photography thing. I'm a part time one for a magazine and a website. To get in on a full time basis is rather tough. And for something that pays enough to run a household, those are even harder to land. It seems like no matter which industry... it's who you know to get in on that market. It looks to be very saturated, which could be a huge factor. Also, digital S.L.R. cameras and more people taking pictures isn't helping the cause, either.
'Tis a nice fantasy, however... I'd love to just shoot and process pictures for a living. Title: Re: where is cal gecko? Post by: Jim Ratto on September 25, 2008, 17:59:49 pm I dig cooking.... food is my thing, even more so than cars, really.
If I could get some gig together cooking for people (my own low key restaurant), and make a decent living.... I'd be out of this current thing faster than a blink of your eye. Title: Re: where is cal gecko? Post by: Diederick/DVK on September 25, 2008, 18:04:51 pm see if you can take over Nick's, now that would be appropriate!
Title: Re: where is cal gecko? Post by: Harry/FDK on September 25, 2008, 18:05:26 pm I would be your first customer... ;D

Post by: Jim Ratto on September 25, 2008, 18:23:47 pm see if you can take over Nick's, now that would be appropriate! actually, my dream would be a very casual place near the water (like in Ventura CA), with outdoor seating primarily, on an elevated deck, overlooking Pacific. Full bar, the best beer on tap, then an ever evolving menu... all my favorties from home.... I'll make you guys a menu... ;D No theme really, just think relaxing, good rock and roll, best food you've tasted and good times. Title: Re: where is cal gecko?
