For those who spend longs night online, this should be a welcoming view: Loads of Coffee : For those who have their coffee on the drive to work, you might recognise this view: So take your time to buy a few cards with these photographs, then post in your car, or your office, or maybe...

Using Twitter to Get Camera Recommendations
Hard to believe it, I have had a Twitter account since mid 2008. For a long time it was just something I looked at from time to time, not understanding how anyone could cross-converse in such a hectic and vibrant community. It looked (and sometimes still does) like a bazillion monkeys chattering over the top... Continue Reading →
Camping Gear I Want to Buy!
My interests have changed overnight. I still enjoy my photography and digital art (that I sell on tshirts), but now I also enjoy outdoor camping. It's a great method of keeping myself grounded and a simple way to remember that there is more to the world than the city life. After spending 2 days outdoors... Continue Reading →
Multi Skilling Keep the Mind Sane
Diversity is fun, but it can get difficult to focus on so many things at once. It's actually what's keeping me away from Facebook. Right now I have my fingers in a bunch of proverbial pies that are starting points to potential virtual end-products. One part of my brain is focusing on a new site... Continue Reading →

So I had to do some googling about this subject. Turns out... Continue Reading →

One of the best points of having 'Casual Clothes Friday', particularly for me, is being able to hide in plain site. As I particularly like shooting architectural and inner-city photography, it helps to be wearing clothes that are either or both plain and of a tourist appearance. So today I am casually dressed. I won't... Continue Reading →
Being Very Right
I like proving the vocational assessment I had 3 months ago to be very wrong. Yes, one might say a thing is either wrong or right, there's no place for a combination of the two. To that I'd like to butcher a quote by Stuart, owner of the profitless comic book store on #TheBigBangTheory -... Continue Reading →
Don’t Stop The Future: Blok IT!
I have a shed loaded with electronic waste that goes back 20 years. I have motherboards, sound cards, old cellular phones, cabling, stenographer tape decks and much more. Somewhere in there I have a 3GB box that is twice the size of a standard shoe box - I use it as a paper weight and... Continue Reading →
