Writing About My Life, Work, Creativity, and the Daily Effort to Learn, Grow, and Live Better.
Found the Cuban Council quite by accident tonight. After resizing the screen to see how the layers moved, I had to check under the bonnet. Hey, it's how we learn.

Need a Lens Hood, but cannot afford or don't want to spend much money? Then make your own. That's right, print out the Lens Hood PDF's at this site onto paper (or black plastic), and sticky tape together. With a bit of trickery, you could keep them flat and roll them up only when you...
