In the Works:

I feel like I should do an update. I don't have a lot of info to update, though.

Lots of travelling so that was nice. Prague in April, Hong Kong in May for three days and another three day trip, to Nagano, in June. I picked up a teaching gig in June and that was a lot of fun but it wasn't photography or writing.

I finally went through the Prague pictures this month. I also have had a chance to go through my Hong Kong photos, and a few of the Nagano photos. I submitted some of the Nagano shots to Getty. It seems I have a pretty positive response. Did some portraits for two people and I think they came out nicely as well.

The website stuff has been going slowly. I learn a lot but I keep changing my design ideas. This is not helpful. I'm trying to decide if it should be just right or just up there. I am going for just right. I decided to do a flash gallery, because in the end it seemed like the easiest thing to make and for viewers to navigate.

I've tried a lot of the free online flash stuff like Coppermine. While I liked it, it seemed that is was going to be harder to get things to look the way I like them then to get a Slideshow-Pro flash plug in to embed in my website.

My power center in my mac went last week so I have been computer free for almost a week. It felt good at first, but then I just wanted to finish the site and when I went outside to shoot, didn't get anything I like.

I don't like that I haven't been writing. I need to be more BICHOK. I have my hands full but need to make more time for it. The only things I have to show for creative writing is a short story challenge with JoeUser and another story about the life of a cantaloupe.
