Yesterday was my birthday. I turned 34-yrs old. I had a pretty good day. Slept late. Got a birthday phone call from my Mom. Then, a video call from my younger brother. I got to see my niece and nephew, although I sometimes think they are more amused with seeing themselves on the screen than…
I probably should have known that starting a website upgrade at 10pm on a Saturday evening wasn’t a good idea. But, I did it anyway. I had it mostly working by 2am when I gave up and went to bed. After another 8 hrs of fiddling, fussing, and dropping more than a few other f-words…
I’ve officially launched my newest website: http://www.trektrax.com. It’s a hiking site with the goal of providing high quality images/video of the trips I take (I call them “treks”) so visitors can see what the trails are really like before they go themselves. There are currently two treks posted. I’m working on the images and video…
If you a Gmail user, you can now download a small browser plugin that will allow you to do voice and video chats from your browser directly inside of Gmail. Of course, you’ll need a webcam to use the video feature or a microphone to use the voice. I already have it installed, of course,…
Bring wireless Internet to everyone, everywhere. I don’t usually make posts like this, but I think this is extremely important. On November 4th, while you’re voting for the next president, the FCC will be voting on whether to open up the unused radio spectrum, or “white spaces”, between TV channels for wireless use. These unused…
An abstract look at the street behind my apartment at sunset. It’s a little unclear…much like my immediate future. School is done. Many of my new friends are leaving. For now, I’m staying in Missoula. I don’t know what I am going to do yet. That will come in time. Until then, I’m going to…
I’m sitting here listening to the near constant roar of motorcycles driving by today. Hell’s Angels are in town this weekend for their annual gathering. This year it’s in Missoula. I can’t decide whether I want to walk around town and check things out or get out of town entirely. I’ll probably do a little…
I know I haven’t posted in a while, but I’ve been keeping pretty busy. So here’s a quick recap on what we’ve been doing in school. We’ve basically covered the technical side of photography at this point and have started to move into the creative side of things now. We’re learning to critique photographs and…
I know I haven’t been posting for a while, but I’m still here. I haven’t been eaten by a bear or anything. After the first two weeks, I decide I needed to make a change to my Internet and phone plan. I no longer have an Internet connection at home besides the one on my…
Well, week one of the Summer Intensive course at the Rocky Mountain School of Photography is officially finished. Honestly, it felt much longer than a week. I don’t know if it’s because we have classes six days a week or the length of each class period (typically 4 hours) or a combination of both, but…
