new website!

We've moved! The Walking Conch is the new home of the blog, my portfolio, and more. Please visit the website for more information. Thanks!

i am a bad blogger

What with all the 1) moving preparations 2) full-time job 3) grad school panic 4) etc, I haven't really been taking many photos lately. I think the blog is probably going to make a slow transition over to operating on an as-needed basis -- no daily posts, but posts whenever I have worthwhile photos to show. It's also going to move over to www.thewalkingconch.com eventually, but until I figure out how to properly upload photos (they come out all squooshed), that'll have to wait. In the meantime, the going-live of the website should be enough to satisfy regular blog readers for at least a week. :)

school days

!!

I'm really excited to announce an upcoming change -- I've gotten my own website!! www.thewalkingconch.com will be going live in several days, and I'll be sure to let you know when it does. I advertised for a web designer on Craigslist and got really lucky -- Andrew Tarcon, who is a freelance student from Wisconsin, is really doing an awesome job. The site is absolutely beautiful, and I can't wait to show it to the world.

working for the weekend

Here's why I didn't blog this weekend. I'm going to stop blogging on weekends. I will still be gracing you with my presence Monday through Friday, but I've decided to join the ranks of such fine blogging sites as www.gofugyourself.com and go off the radar on Saturday and Sunday. But it's Monday, so it's a moot point for now anyway.

I would just like to draw repeated attention to this photograph -- I know it's already been posted -- but it is now the newest addition to the Jones Soda photographs! For those who don't know, Jones is a hippie/organic soda brand whose gimmick is to solicit consumer photographs for their labels. The labels rotate out every season or so, and a different photo is placed on each flavor. This photo of Beth playing violin in Clark Park made it onto Green Apple Jones Soda for this season! I'm really excited, and of course, yay Beth for being such an awesome model. :)

V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N

Until Sunday, July 11, I'll be kickin' it on my private balcony on a Carnival cruise ship in the Bahamas. And, of course, pottering around the ship and the islands with my trusty camera. As Internet access onboard is something like $1749.38 per minute, I won't be blogging. But when I get back....cruiseapalooza.
