Today the boy and I were on the couch pretending that we were driving a car. I asked him if he wanted to stop so he could could shoot the T Rex we had just passed on the side of the road and he replied, "No, we can't stop here. Because of bats."

Portrait and Landscape Compositions Exist
Seriously. How does an art site not know that other than square compositions exist? If a square composition was right, I would have shot it that way. If I wanted to be on Instagram, I'd be on fucking Instagram.
Hasn't been a Journal for a long while.
Not sure I'll last beyond the switch to Eclipse. And not because I can't eventually make my peace with a new format. But it's driving away the people I need to learn from.

That's fair.
Old war buddy is living in my "studio" until he finds work.
