Where is their vote?

By Boback | Published: June 25, 2009
I took advantage of the bus going past the filthy hole that is the Iranian embassy, and shot this video. Not a huge amount of protestors were around, but the ones that had turned up were quite loud with music and such. Maybe I’ll get more tomorrow. Planning on going down there with the DSLR [...]

The big ‘Four Oh’

By Boback | Published: April 26, 2009
So yesterday was my 40th birthday. I guess some call it the mid life. I must admit, so far it feels no different, especially since I started developing aches and pains way before 38 Friends at work took me out to lunch on Friday and we had a few too much to drink on a [...]

Mobile blogging

By Boback | Published: August 14, 2008
So I bought an iPhone and am using it right now to blog while laying I’m bed. Sad I know, but easy and relaxing. Actually using a Word Press app to connect to my blog. It’s somewhat of a no frils app, but seems to do what it needs to do, and I’ve become quite [...]

Day to day no more…

By Boback | Published: July 13, 2008
So I’ve been slaving away at Ogilvy for over a year and a half now, even though for the last year, I’ve been working solely for Kodak. You can see my handy work if 1) you visit Kodaks online shop or 2) receive emails from Kodak twice a month. Also I built a site they [...]

By Boback | Published: July 8, 2008
So last week, or rather the week before last we went out to do the Sunday shopping at the local huge monster size Tesco (like WalMart for you Americans) and I saw my opportunity to buy a HDTV. It was a spontaneous decision when I saw the price of a LG 32 inch HDTV

The Bridge

By Boback | Published: June 15, 2008
This weekend, I are mostly been going through DV tapes I shot from 2000 all the way to 2003. I’ve not used my DV cam much in the past few years. It’s been mostly in my fathers hands for his trips back to Iran. I found a few interesting bits on all the tapes I [...]

Three weeks on…

By Boback | Published: May 20, 2008
So, it has been three weeks since Nikki, Zoé and I moved in together, here in old rainy London. Even though it hasn’t actually rained properly since we’ve been back. Since we moved into an area of London that I am not familiar with very much, we’ve all had to adjust to the new surroundings [...]

It’s finally done

By Boback | Published: May 3, 2008
So here we are, at Atlanta airport, Zoé has gone to the cargo section, waiting to come on board and get placed in the cargo bay of this Boeing 777-200 (G-VIIB). We’re both pretty nervous for her, since she’s been quite scared the whole day, with the 4 hour car trip from Rock Hill to [...]

Moving weekend
