  • Frog and Toad

    ,

    When my kids were little they used to love bedtime stories. We still have a collection of their books in our little library. One of their favorite series of books was Frog and Toad. I’ve taken several photos of the family of toads that hang out in our driveway every night during the summer. Last…

  • Textures and Impressions

    Here is a small collection of photos I took today. I made it a point to take the camera with me (with a 50mm lens) and just shoot things that caught my eye.

  • Caribou at Dusk

    ,

    Here are a few photos of Caribou last Tuesday. It was around dusk and there were some specific photos I wanted to take — local businesses on Bennet Drive at dusk, when there is still some daylight, but all the storefronts and signs are lit (those that are still open after 8pm).

  • Something About Change and Decay

    ,

    I took a short walk during my lunch break today to snap a few photos. I’m not sure what I find so fascinating about taking photos of the crumbling parts of town. Maybe it’s the way things change over time; nothing ever stays the same forever, which I guess is how anything acquires any value.…

  • Good morning, Jeannie

    Here is a video I threw together this morning while waiting for Jeannie to pee. Then I had Braden produce some music for it using Ableton Live.

  • Photo Habit

    ,

    Here are some photos I took at random over the past couple of weeks, both at home and on the road for work. As per usual, a disproportionate number of all the photos I took over that time period were of our dog, Jeannie, but I’ll spare you most of those — except for this…

  • Ye Olde Internet — I miss it

    Strap in. This elder millennial is about to yell at some clouds. I’ve been feeling this for quite a while and pretty deeply in recent years — the idea that we’ve lost something magical about the “old” internet as we barrel towards a more AI corrupted dystopic enabled future. Who am I kidding? We’re already…

  • New McLids: I Don’t Like ‘Em

    What is the purpose of a personal blog if not for ranting about inconsequential things that I find mildly annoying? I’ve noticed a change in the plastic lids that cover the drinks the past couple of times that I got takeout from McDonalds. They appear to be a combination of the two types of lids…

  • a walk in presque isle

    ,

    In an effort to keep up a semi-regular photo habit, I went for a walk in Presque Isle yesterday. There’s not much particularly interesting in Presque Isle to photograph, however, I think that forcing myself to take photos of random things makes good practice. I went on a similar walk last year (Walking Around Presque…

  • a walk in caribou

    ,

    I went for a walk the other day. Here is a sample of photos I took during my tour around town. I’m thinking of putting together a photo book to sell online with the full collection of photos.
