What they Are Sally baked her first batch of cupcakes for a paying customer this weekend and I wanted to document the event. When I wasn't giving the boys my attention, I was grabbing as many shots as possible. I didn't get a ton, but I got enough to celebrate with and I did some …
Lens Review: Canon 70-200mm f/4.0 L
My CFO recently gave me the go-ahead to purchase some new lenses for my camera, so I purchased two: a Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 and a Canon EF 70-200mm f/4.0L USM. Both lenses are the highest quality that I have ever owned. I've been using the Canon 70-200 for about two weeks and I'm very impressed …
Album Review – Panic! At The Disco: Vices & Virtues
Panic! At The Disco released their new album, Vices & Virtues, this week. I'm a big Panic! fan (with or without the !) so I naturally preordered it and listened to all of the songs as soon as the album came out. I'm pretty impressed. If you're not familiar, Panic! released their first album in …

Apple Designs Everything
Just saw a photo of HP's new keyboard for their newly announced tablet, the TouchPad. Look familiar? I often wonder what technology would look like if Apple wasn't around.
Thoughts on a Jailbroken iPod
Apple controls what you can put on your iDevices. Everything comes from the App Store and everything must pass Apple's requirements to get in. They don't allow things like application switchers, icon packs, themes, widgets, or things that modify the lock screen. If you want things like that or other utilities that let you use …
"Gallery" Prints
I've always liked "Gallery" style photos. What I mean by "Gallery" is those photos that are framed in such a way that they are suspended in large amounts of white or black space. So instead of just being a photo in a frame or a photo in a rectangular mat in a frame, a gallery …
Felt the Babies Kick!
One of the things that you do when you're pregnant is follow The milestones that the baby experts write into books. When will you start showing? When will you get sick? When will you no longer be able to see your feet? One of the other big milestones is when you can feel the baby(ies) …
