Sony WH-1000XM4 Headphones My old Plantronic Back Beat Pros bit the dust, so I picked up a new pair of headphones. Those BackBeat Pros were some of the best headphones I've ever owned. I bought them back in 2015, and they got me through a lot of cross-country flights. Really like them so far. They … Continue reading Sony WH-1000XM4 First Thoughts
I've always been a fan of constant lighting. Now that we can get LED light panels with adjustable color temperatures, I like it even more. I've been looking for some inexpensive LED panels for awhile, and of course Neewer came through. If you've never owned Neewer equipment, it's worth taking a look at. They're "good … Continue reading Neewer LED Lights
I've had the Think Tank Retrospective 7 bag for over two years now, so I figured it was about time I wrote about it. Since I was taking pictures of the bag for this post, I decided I'd throw in the obligatory "What's in my bag" post, as well. My main problem with bags (other … Continue reading Think Tank Retrospective 7 / What’s In My Bag
About a year ago, I picked up the first version of the Automatic adapter. According to Automatic: Automatic connects your car to the rest of your digital life. And it does. If you're familiar with IFTTT, you'll have no problem creating recipes that integrate with Automatic. I have one recipe that logs each trip to … Continue reading Tracking Business Mileage with Automatic
This has nothing to do with photography. Or maybe it does--if you like to listen to music while you edit. I just had to mention these headphones. I'm one of those strange people who loves the sound of Beats headphones. I like heavier bass. Before I bought my Beats Solos, I wandered around town trying … Continue reading Plantronics BackBeat Pro
If you've been paying attention, you've noticed two things:
1. I haven't been posting regularly
1. I've moved the blog off of WordPress
The decision to move from WordPress originally stemmed from general slowness. This isn't necessarily WordPress' fault--it was most likely due, in part, to the shared hosting I was using. I switched to Koken, which is an awesome new CMS, but there was no way to import my old blog posts. Finally, I made the decision to move to Squarespace. Page load speeds seem faster, and the interface is pretty slick. Also, I was able to import my old WordPress posts, and create a URL redirect so old links will still work. Unfortunately, the shortcodes I used in the WordPress blog don't translate, so until I have a chance to go through the old posts, you will occasionally notice a naked shortcode or two. I appreciate your patience.
Ever since I started posting photos to Flickr, I’ve used it as a way to review the previous year. Reviewing the Archive area of my Flickr account is a great way to jog the memory when writing these Year in Review posts. Even if you don’t blog, it’s fun to run back through the memories … Continue reading 2013: A year in review
