a month of photos

As per my esteemed uncle's haranguing, I'm going to start posting some of my photography on this blog. I've previously kept it on my Flicker site, but I've been so busy of late that I haven't updated Flickr.

So this will be my month of photos. Barring a couple of mini-vacations, I'll post a new photo on this page every day for the rest of the month.

On a side note, been selling off items on various auction sites - trying to lighten my load of possessions - and am very close to being able to buy a 17" MacBook Pro. Hallelujah!

Love my Powerbook G4 but it's just too slow for using Lightroom (I've switched to it from Aperture because it's much faster on my 'book). Really, I want the Intel Mac so that I can play sophisticated PC games (a serial obsession that overtakes me on average about once a year) and process my huge backlog of photos.

Funny thing, I've been using my new Canon A720IS (gift from aforementioned uncle) to photograph stuff that I'm selling. One immediate use! Right after I get stuff sold my next task will be to engage in some serious HDR photography and get back to my series of black & whites on Seattle coffeeshops. Seems like it will be perfect for scouting expeditions.
