My Uncles

Meet my uncles Dan and John. Dan (the one on the left) is the man who introduced me to conventions. He and I share many things in common. He nurtured my love for anime and Star Wars. He’s incredibly crafty and works well with an assortment of materials. John (the on of the right) is incredibly intelligent. He spent three years in China setting up cell phone towers and spreading the word of God. While he and I do not share the same Religious ideals, we have many a good discussions. John lives near me in Jersey while Dan lives in Iowa, where I spent my high school years.

Both my uncles are photographers. Really good ones too. Sometimes they put me to shame. In the Midwest, my step dad’s side of the family is a bit notorious and everyone recognizes a member of his family when they see them. They all look so much alike. My uncles are a lot of fun and I like visiting and spending time with them. Both of them have a big hand in the things I enjoy and the stuff that I pursue (even though they both shoot Canon).

My uncles are one of a kind and I miss them dearly. The story behind the photos is that John (on the right) mouthed off something smart ass to Dan (on the left) and Dan didn’t think it was too funny, but John sure did.
