Working on cars and wasting all my money on them. DRIFTO!!!!!!!!! Autocross. PHOTOGRAPHY, DUH!! Drag Racing. My friends. Tamparacing. Working out, when I get my lazy ass off the couch and do it. Diving, I have my advanced certification. Going to the beach. 8 bit nintendo! Any normal early to mid 20 year old activites generally.
I love to take pictures of cars in general, but mainly car races. I shoot with a Canon 30D with battery grip, (which I just sold to do the $3500 1D Mark III Upgrade) 17-40L and a 70-200 2.8L IS. All I need now is a fish eye and a 24-105L IS and I'll be set!

About me: ..
..
I lived in Florida for 22 years and moved back to Cali on April 18, 2007. I was actually born 3 miles away from where I currently live. It's funny how someone could end back up where they first started life
About me? hmmmm, I don't know. If you knew me you would know I am not easy to describe. Sarcasm plays a really big role in my life. Different? Yes, more unique I'd say, how you want to interpret that, I will leave to you. Everything from relationships, personality, to cars I do different then everyone else. I like to create my own trends and procedures on things. Narrow minded you might say, and I'd say no, but not completely. I cherish a good companion. One quote describes my personality to a tee.
From the movie "Slackers" - "I will torture, I will probe, I will destroy.........but I am really just not comfortable talking to a girl"
Maybe it's just because girls are like parking spaces, and like always, I am tardy. Funny, yes. Goofy, hell yes. But I also know how to act accordingly. I.E. I can be mature and sensitive when the time calls for it. I am a damn good listener and I love to give my input on anything from relationship problems to "What should I do to my car next". I am very blunt and I don't take peoples' shit. I have been told on multiple occasions that I am the last true gentleman.
I am a camera man. I fly around the US and shoot video at races, shows, etc. http://www.nmratv.net http://www.streetlegaltv.com

Well if you read all this, I guess you can IM me on AOL AIM. My name is markgml18 . Also make sure you let me know who you are, random names without faces scare me, well, not really.
Who I'd like to meet: My favorite hobby besides working on cars is photography. I have been shooting races since 1997 but with either old 35mm or point and shoots. I bought my 1st SLR camera not even a year ago and already my quality of shots have grown by 1000%
in less then 1 years time. I am constantly trying new things and upgrading my gear. My goal is to get a job working for a team or organization on the weekends doing what I love to do. Though I do not count on something like that to happen, which is why I do it regardless.
