Patrick O’Meara

I was born AD. Yes, that’s a religious joke. 

When I learned how hard it was to become an astronaut I decided to stick to pictures. That being said, when I was younger I had a space-themed bedroom and MAN do I miss it. 

On a trip to Ireland, I fell asleep right before takeoff and woke up as we landed. It was as if the entire flight never happened.

Based on these life experiences, I’m just a normal guy that believes in aliens and time travel. And I’m great with Photoshop.
