My blog’s been experiencing some interesting side effects of certain malware. It’s taking a little longer to cleanup than expected, but I should be up and running next week. thanks guys–

This weekend I had planned to have a few friends over. It was an opportunity to try something new for a party snack.  This recipe (suggested by @jstone13zero) is from one of our new favorite blogs, Oh She Glows. The ingredients were simple enough. Add some maple syrup and balsamic vinegar...

Man, I am almost done processing through my vegas photos.  Yeah, it was definitely two months ago… but now that I’m finally finishing the LA pictures I’ll have a full album on facebook next week, I think. These are some hanging lanterns from Little Tokyo in Los Angeles. My...

It has been a long time since the last Friday Finds! I have some interesting things for you. First, to keep with tradition, I present our sponsoring meme: Pickup Line Scientist. If you’ve ever watched Big Bang Theory, a fav show of mine ever since it came out, this is spot on for Howard...

First my mum sent me this photo from the beach. Then my dad sent me this photo the next day. They took these with their phones. I think they’re trying to make me jealous. I think it’s totally working. I’m driving to Florida tomorrow. It’s gonna be an awesome...

The seeds are so small… but they’ll soon be something big....

I have a wonderful friend named JoAnn who runs a sartorial blog. She came to visit yesterday and we spent some time in the park.  She takes her own outfit photos for her blog, Sidewalk Chic,  but I got to shoot her at the park yesterday.  In return, dragged the poor woman...

My mum’s garden is kinda magical. I took a 20 minute walk and documented some of the pretty things in it....

I found a Luna moth while vacationing in North Carolina earlier last month.  They’ve got fantastic antennae. Lovely colors and.. just an amazing creature...

The allure of macro photography lies in the finest details missed by the eye, even when looking closely at something amazing. This is the Luna moth’s wing edge. It’s so fine.. like it’s made of paper tape. Love...

I started listening to some Aretha Franklin last week and got into a funky kinda mood. That’s when I discovered Aloe Blacc. He’s got a good voice and this song tells a good story.  Listen to it on spotify. If you need a spotify invite, Justin Bieber is giving out seemingly...
