I'm back in business with photography.
Well, with the minor exception of suddenly discovering that going to get your camera professionally cleaned is a waste of money and all that can be done at home if you have the right (and fairly inexpensive) tools. Oops! Live and learn, I suppose.
I'm still uploading stuff from McKinney Falls, and this weekend I hope to go out to another local park and get some more pictures. Ah, I'd forgotten how much I love to do this stuff. Oh, and I've also moved some (about 40) of my older shots into storage. Mostly I picked out the ones that, even for the time, were below standard, but a lot of stuff I left alone. But going through my gallery I was definitely able to tell that I've improved, which is a good sign.
Hope you all are doing well. It looks as though things may finally be starting to pick up for me here at school.

I am still alive.
Very busy, though, and not managing my time with enough efficiency to allow for things like deviantArt or photography (or AIM, for that matter). Besides school, which has been horrendous, there has been personal stuff aplenty going on, and the reworking of several of my basic assumptions, come in through a back door (and over several years) and now developed into a more serious matter. I don't think I'd call myself emergent (though I identify with them in many ways), but I've certainly abandoned fundamentalism, and this for a variety of reasons. It can be a bit difficult moving to a different worldview than the one you w
Prints?! and Christmas!
Because I'm a dork, I didn't realize until just now that I can apparently make prints. So everyone can submit prints now? What's the dealio with that? D'oh, if only I'd noticed in time for Christmas.
Speaking of which, a merry/happy Christmas to all of you! Now go be with your family and friends. :)

I've finally gotten through all my built-up messages from my hiatus during the summer. There were over a thousand deviations and hundreds of journal entries, and it took months (particularly done over the past few weeks), but I viewed and read them all. My barrage of favs, and sometimes comments, can quit now, as there is a lot of really good work sitting in my favorites gallery. The people and the art - that's the reason I came back to this place anyway. Speaking of people, there are too many of you whom I know all too peripherally. Hopefully I too will be doing some photography relatively soon - it has been far too long.

I've been slowly going through my built up stack of deviations (and still am - 829 to go, plus 217 journal entries... I will read and view them all), and I've come across a lot of really amazing work by JCNero. I was rather surprised to find very few comments and favs because the man has simply amazing black and white photogrpahy, some of the best I've seen on dA, and just lacks popularity. Not that I'm a popular photographer, but I can at least tell you. :)
If you're reading this, you should stop right now and check out his awesome gallery: http://jcnero.deviantart.com/
