I apologize to my Internet Explorer readers for the snafu in the formatting after the posting of the “Bad Apples” story. It seems that in the cutting and the pasting from e-mail to WordPress, some odd-ball formats were included, but never properly closed, thus trashing the rest of the page. It’s, obviously, fixed now.
We now [...]

Today’s Photo Friday theme is “Portrait.”
This image is from a shoot I did of Bob Sima, a local singer/songwriter, and lead for Stereopool. Bob wanted something a little avant garde, and also wanted to so something with the interesting stairway in the coffee shop where he was playing before the [...]
Staunch opponents of digital music downloads, Metallica, have changed their tune, so to speak. Their music is now available for download on iTunes and arch-enemy Napster. Full story here.

So, tell [...]
Microsoft is finally loosening their corporate grip on the necks of PC manufacturers and users with their new, kinder, gentler approach to marketing and development. Here’s an interesting example:
Principle I: Choice for Computer Manufacturers and Customers
Microsoft is committed to designing Windows and licensing it on contractual terms so as to make it easy to install [...]
With all the new D-SLRs out and coming out (Pentax has two new models, Nikon’s got a new one on the way), I’d like to comment on a boat I think has been missed.
How ’bout a Pentax K1000D, a Nikon F2D or a Canon F1D? Some of you may not even recognized the lineage of [...]
In just under three weeks, and hot on the heels of the D2Xs, Nikon will unveil another new D-SLR, suspected to be something of a “D80/90″, whatever exactly that is. Some of you may remember that we’ve just bought a pair of D70s’s.
