I’m involved in a comment thread with another Flickr user involving the appropriateness of an image I’m displaying for all the world to see. Being a father and an artist, my perspective is somewhat jaded on the issue. As compared to an advertisement strategy of Calvin Klein’s where young children are poised in their underwear,… Continue reading **Censored**

Star Wars at Lakeshore
Whoa! That was so friggin’ awesome. There was a Storm Trooper, Darth Vader, Boba Fett, and Chewbacca all parading around at Lakeshore Mall for the children (and the adults – don’t think we didn’t notice your excited faces). I’m still not exactly sure what the whole deal was, but I know that it had a… Continue reading Star Wars at Lakeshore
The Hall County Master Gardeners
As a family, we went to Gainesville’s garden tour this past weekend. It’s their fifth annual event, though only our first time attending. It was pretty interesting. I got to talk to a lot of gardeners that really knew their stuff. Their most helpful advice came from the 30-or-so years of experience most of them… Continue reading The Hall County Master Gardeners
Protein Morsel
Yang is our Great Pyrenees who came to us by way of Raven’s death a few months ago. She shares many characteristics with Raven. Some are exact opposites, while others are very similar. The opposing qualities we toss off to the fact that she is Yang, while Raven was the Yin. One such similar trait… Continue reading Protein Morsel
Atlanta Photo Stroll 5
That’s “V” for you Romans. This stroll took place in Roswell around the Old Roswell Mill area. I think everyone had a good time, though there may have been a poison ivy victim. The place was crawling with various identifiable types of poison ivy. I have (so far) managed to avoid all contact with it,… Continue reading Atlanta Photo Stroll 5
The Return of the Season
It’s been relatively cold and rainy since my return from Florida. Today was the first day that we’ve received a good dose of sunshine and heat. It felt like Georgia in June. Our Great Pyrenees, Yang, nearly melted. I don’t know what she’s going to do in August. Tomorrow we’re heading out to Roswell in… Continue reading The Return of the Season
Lava Orange (Georgia Clay)
I finally got my new car after seemingly insurmountable odds against me. We’ve had a string of bad luck lately, but I hope that this and other recent events signify the end of all that. You may recall the details around the purchase of Amy’s car, the Honda Element. I swore I’d never go through… Continue reading Lava Orange (Georgia Clay)
Yin and Yang
Raven met this white dog while at my mom’s farm prior to her death a little while back. We didn’t know anything of this little white puff-ball at the time, though we have since come to know her well. It turns out that her leg was broken shortly after this picture from a farm animal.… Continue reading Yin and Yang
You’re Looking at a Flickr Pro User
Sean Williams benefitted from the awesome Flickr account updates, as he already has a Pro account. Because he’s a wonderful, caring friend (and not because he only knows two people on Flickr), he passed along a free Pro account sponsorship to me. Now I’m a Pro user like the…er…pro’s. I’m very thankful for the sponsorship,… Continue reading You’re Looking at a Flickr Pro User

Flickr has announced their new pricing it appears. The price is reduced a tad, but moreover the benefits have increased. Free accounts can now upload twice as much as before and you can show 200 images rather than the previous limit of 100. That’s very cool! Flickr Link. In other news, Adobe purchased Macromedia for… Continue reading Your News Updates
