The Story of The Panda and The Miao-Princess

Not many of you do know Ee but she was the very first Hmong girl I have dated and she educated me on life as a Hmong resident living in Madison.
Younger than me, Yes! but she was very laid back and never asked for a thing even when I wanted to offer. But there are those within her family that made some false criticism about me and disapproval because of greed.
She was different in her own unique way. Just like others but we all have our demons too. She didn't keep it away from me for too long. We work through it and my hand was full helping her with her troubles. To me, that is the perfect gift. Caring is what we all need but those that have other opinions will question or challenge it. That's fair but it's the way how you go about it. After Yuuki and I split, it was one year later where I ran into Ee and talk at first then got to understand a bit more about the hardships but how can we overcome them.

For 2 years we were a nice team and always cooking for my roommates when we come from classes. She didn't have to do things around the house then she will go home. To have her understand that we really wanted to tell her our thanks, I decide one day to take her on a shopping spree and she had $1000 dollars to spend but she didn't want to take that either. So we went out and we both we shopping and that's when she wanted to get a few things. The point of that story is, she never wanted things or else, I get something for myself too. That's fair game to me and homerun when it comes to dating someone that understands the value of not needing things that you don't need. This doesn't count for camera gear, LOL
But one day we come back from visiting people in Kobe and Osaka and there was a letter.

Her sister forces her to leave because she was wrong about what she said and asked too many times for money when she is also married and has a husband. I felt uncomfortable and said no. Now, I'm a drug dealer, "oh wow" I said. The friction between us wasn't all good and Ee never told her about my income or where it comes from. Her sister thought I was teaching her to lie about something I was falsely accused of. When she finally figure out things, she never apologizes for all of it but instead bullies her sister into leaving Madison. I understand their family and the values they have as a Hmong family, But I was only looking out for Ee best interest but just someone financially supports her and taking care of legal matters.
She was an amazing person and will be missed but someday I know I will run into her and she tells me that she didn't want to but her sister told her.
I've told Ee if you want to become stronger for yourself, you must know how to while you living in the states. To make something of yours come true and that can be a hobby you want to make into a profession. She knew but the family was told a lie and I'd feel for Ee.

My Lunch Time | Vlog without Breaking A Sweat.





Notice that the focus was lock making the video look a bit soft in some areas as we walk and rant about some things. I am heading to Jade Garden for lunch and it's all you can eat for $7.99 but I am going back again for the veggies selections. This is one of my favorite places to pick up some Chinese veggies dishes. But take a look how easy for me to vlog with just simple gear and not a load of camera gear and heavy gimbals. This is how vlogging should me, simple and ready to go

Having a career job and being a Photographer





Good morning everyone in panda nation

Doing good? Good! Now, let's have a chat and share for a moment

I'm vlogging more about my daily activities but let's talk about having a job and being a photographer

My Special Message To You



Have you ever wondered why life is some experimental by choice?
I'd wonder the same thing all the time but I am looking for something
I just don't know where it is or what it is yet but I will find it or her one day again.
My journeys will lead me into the light and into the dark but I will subjugate in the name of justice for all and myself one day

Behind the scenes - Tamron vs Irixlens editing process (Full Livestream)



#youtube has done it again and refuse to notify you all that I was live streaming over an hour about my experience as a photographer and how I edit my last video.
Why me? please explain why do you place a filter over my channel or place my channel hidden from those looking for a real #photographer experience when it comes to #traveling and sharing advice?
But we all know #youtube isn't going to answer the way you think they should They always have some explanation.
The main reason why I stop doing live streams but one of the reasons why I can't continue with my small business because 

Youtube has hurt me in the process and trying to grow. they stop the growth back in 2018 and I saw a 64% decrease in views and watch time. How can I really live at this time when someone wants to control what people watch? I'm not making money from it either and that is killing me too. All the hard work I do to post content for those looking for answer and youtube thinks it's not what they would like for you to see at this time. 

That's cyberbullying at it's finest

 

Macro Photography Is Fun

The Time I would like to become a macro star
It's been a long time coming and I am not sure what to do anymore.
Life has turned on me and I am not sure why that is. 
After what has happened in the last six months,
will change me forever but what does make me happy?
Photography and I'm very good at what I do best. 
My eye sees color and objects differently.
I see the world as my playground but I have to be extremely careful.
It can bite you back at any time and will strike with the power of the lesson to be learned 


First story but not the last

 I’d hope that Irix Lens and Canon love this #shortfilm as I was testing Smooth Camera GearT8 fluid head and their CF2Aa CF #tripod  As I sh...
