  1. I shot the annual finale for a motorsports series at a track about 5 hours drive from my home this past weekend. On the way I tripped over a dead deer on the highway early in the morning, and almost wrecked my car. Once I got my nerves together I stopped to call the police to tell them about the carcass with a suggestion that it should get moved. The dispatcher immediately knew that I was some distance from the spot where the deer was as I had given him a milepost to find it. His description of where he thought I was within a few hundred yards. At that point I realized any concerns about privacy are pipe dreams at best.

  3. The more time spent around photography the more I agree with this statement. Photography is a personal thing, and whatever works for an individual is fine with me. I do a lot of post-processing, and enjoy it. The goal for me is based on the notion that the image looks as I remember the occasion to have been. And, if that's not "good enough", whatever that means, I will change parts of the image to be how I wish it had looked. There's a phrase we used back when I worked on large IT projects, "perfection is the enemy of good enough". Photography is my opportunity to decide what is good enough, and stop there. Maybe. Since I quite real work, and went full-time with photography I've found that the images that sell best are those I like the most - there's something about getting a result to the place I'm happy with that seems to stand out for others.
  4. Our street was done in April, and I noticed that it had been updated in July. It could have happened earlier in that 90 days of course, but at least it appears to be less than 3 months.
