Did you miss me?

So… yeah. I will just come right out and state the obvious: I stopped posting. I will have to change the tagline to something more appropriate, like “updated when I feel like it.” After all those festivals, I misplaced my inspiration.

But my new camera? It is awesome. Then it snowed, which is sort of difficult to wrap my head around here in Seattle, because we’re on almost a full week of snow. I’ve taken a few photos in the cold and it is a super fun time. Maybe I should post some of those. However. I soon discovered I needed Photoshop CS4 to interpret the RAW files from the D700, and I don’t own that software yet. Put a wee crimp in my style.


Then for Christmas my husband gave me his present early: Strobist Lighting Seminar DVDs. And lately I’ve been reading this: HDR: An Introduction to High Dynamic Range Photography. I decided I needed to add some technique to my bag of my tricks. And maybe a monitor. My monitor is… good at word processing.

So, no promises, no pressure, but if you haven’t already you should add me to your RSS feed reader. Eventually I’ll get my act together, but it’ll probably be less scheduled than before. And maybe I’ll change the design if it doesn’t break everything. But let’s not get too crazy yet — need to feed the Google monster.

I’m cheating by posting a photo of my booth as it looked on the first day of Fremont Fair as my Monday picture, but it’s almost 10pm and I’m wiped out after all weekend at the Fremont Fair. The event was a lot of fun, Jer and I met a lot of people, and we had great parking spots. I’m not sure you could ask for more.

I’m calling it a success. And now I’m going to scrounge something up for dinner because it seems like the thing to do.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by and if you’ve found your way here as a result of the event: WELCOME!!!
