My second son was born on Nov 5th!

Tristan Daniel Obrien Nelson, weighing 8lbs 13oz. Awesome birthday eh? "Remember, remember the fifth of November..." :-)

To celebrate his birth I smoked a Perdomo Estate Seleccion Vintage 1991 Maestro, it was...delicioso!

Here's me and him

Great, Shawn! Congratulations! I can only imagine your joy.

One of these decades I hope to become a Dad myself. :)
 
That's beautiful Shawn, all my best.

And what Tom said too... :-)
 
That's beautiful, man. Congratulations. This is a powerful reminder to all of us that there are things infinitely more important than cameras. Thank you for sharing this moment with all of us.

p.s.- You probably could have put this thread in the "Unboxing" section :)
 
That's great Shawn! Congratulations...

He looks big and strong...looks like he'll be a linebacker for Oregon or OSU someday!

IMO his first birthday present should be a Scarlet or DSMC, which you'll guard for him until he's old enough to start in his Daddy's footsteps as a cinematographer :biggrin:

I bet your dad is smiling big, being made a grandpa again by you and your wife...BTW, say hi to your dad from me and Pam.
 
Fantastic. Best birthday in the world is 5th November :-) Best to you all!

Congratulations Tristan on hiring your new help. I'm sure you'll train this ole geezer "Shawn" to be a decent 2nd AC. If he works hard enough you might let him play around on your gear every once in a while (just a few minutes after he's spent hours cleaning it). Just make sure he knows who's in charge, -- these old guys can have real attitude problems.

It reminds me of 27 years ago when my Director & DP showed up and started training me. Now he's directing, etc... and I'm still assisting! :huh:


I guess that's OK because he has two new bosses now. An Actress and a Director. What goes around, come around!
 
Congrats! Now as a good father, you have to do some Baby footage with Scarlet/DSMC!:love: Congratulations again!
 
Cool, we share the same birthday.... Wednesday!:usd:
 
Congratulations! :w00t:
 
congrats DAD!!

get him a Scarlet so he can shoot just like Dad!!
