Jack London once said “You can’t wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a mouse.” Okay he might have said club instead of mouse.  Same difference these days in the realm of digital creation. If you’d like to discover amazing photographs by no one in particular, without a similar subject,  and with the only thing that makes them alike is that they’re sweet sweet eye candy then I suggest you try...

If you’re not on a photo-sharing site then go with Flickr.  In fact, if you’re on Google’s Picasa and you’re not using their desktop software you might want to switch because now Flickr has integrated Picnik with robust tools for editing your photos right on the web.   This is a huge advantage if you’re just sharing your photos on Facebook or the like.  If you want to be able to print your photos or share...

Life is busy and no time for photography.  Missed my post completely last week although I was out of town.  Also lost one of my memory cards but that’s no excuse.  Nope, just too busy and still catching up from attending the SXSW show.  Here’s something entertaining in the meantime.   Oh, also check the out site I built for Jody who helped me out with some great nutritional information.  Sorry it only took me 2 months...

Is my website broken? No I’ve actually does this on purpose. I’ve been thinking more about site usability lately and I realized that own site here wasn’t all that use-able. I’m on here more than anyone else and I realized that although I liked the textured background and some of the other visual niceties, it was also getting in the way. (Thanks also to some user feedback from my wife…”Which one is...

So sort of a slow week for photography. Amazing how a sick pup, a dentist appointment, doctor’s appointments and a long work week eat into free time. Sheesh! In stark contrast to the above is a quick shot from last week: a casual sunny parking lot portrait of my friend and colleague, the incredibly nice Ahna Fender. Ahna is a talented artist in addition to the preceding. Check out her art here at Artruckus.com. Thank you, Ahna...
