Today I was in downtown Atlanta — at the courthouse for my turn in the Jury Duty box, actually — and during lunch I was thinking it’d be nice if I had my camera with me… when I realized that I did, in a way. My new phone (at what point is it a smart […]

Tornados In Columbus GA
I was in Columbus Georgia during the tornado-inducing storm Thursday night, in fact Mark and I were in an Outback steak house just before the worst of the storm. The power went out just as we were placing our drink orders, and it didn’t look like it was coming back on very quickly, so we […]
An Orton Barn
I know I’ve made images of this barn before; as I passed it today I figured I’d get a fresh one and try that Orton thing that Geren mentioned. The instructions he points to really lightened up the image, so I backed it off a little and had to play with the transparency to get […]

Learning Matters?

Homecoming night…
Pretty Girls, Handsome Guys… …Parties… …and parents taking pictures.
