I got some goodies today… hats off to triumvir for creating this collection.  They are finally here.

Two things I love to photograph: food and clothing.

It’s almost the new year – what better time for a friendly reminder from Ernest Hemingway regarding the creative process:

“I write one page of masterpiece to ninety one pages of shit,” Hemingway confided to F. Scott Fitzgerald in 1934. “I try to put the shit in the wastebasket.”

Clean up your Lightroom (or whatever you use) library today.

It’s December time, and I’m trying out some new Lightroom presets.
