Okay, I am officially recommending the practice of buying prescription glasses on the internet. I have bought three pairs (3!) in the past 3 months, and all of them have turned out pretty well. In total, I spent less on three pairs than I spent on my last pair of replacement lenses (not including frames) [...]

Stop the Insanity
March 18th, 2010 · No Comments · In Summary, Photography
I lurk on a few forums that are populated by photographers.

I’m sitting here looking at one of my new calendars for 2010, and realizing that I haven’t blogged about my holiday adventures at all! So hello, and welcome to 2010! I am going to go with “twenty-ten”, and try to forget the clumsy “two thousand” thing we had going on for so many years there. [...]

So, the year is almost over. I can take down this calendar, Monet’s Gardens in Giverny calendar, and put it away and never look at it again, and that makes me happy. I return on Tuesday with a Cezanne that will never disappoint me, not in all of 2007. This has been quite a year, [...]
