Largest PR Push for my Images
This week, I’m actually doing the largest push I’ve ever done for my images. It’s not only the launch of the new website, blog and catalog, but a mailing to my email database, Facebook, and Twitter messages, as well as full page advertising in the local papers (I got a GREAT rate for full page [...]
All Canon – All the Time Blog
I’ve decided to start another blog. Of course this one, will have all of my personal work on it, but the new one is LensFlare35 | The Weekly Show for DSLR Users, and is located at www.lensflare35.com. LensFlare 35 is a community for both amateur and professional photographers to stay informed, network, and leverage tips and [...]
Seven New Neighbors
Well, I was working in the yard planting a garden and ‘got the call’ from my mother-in-law. Of course, I am just a bit up the road from the lake, and she is right on the edge. She called to let me know that the Canada Geese that were nesting across the lake were in [...]
Unusual Winter
Well, everyone is trying to convince me that this is NOT the usual winter. More snow, colder temperatures, etc. Heck, I have NO idea, because I don’t have a baseline. But what I DO know, is that in January, there were 27 days where at least SOME snow was recorded in our area out of [...]
OK – Enough Snow Already!
OK, shoveling three times a day, every other day is finally wearing me out! Let’s take today for instance. Had to shovel/snow blow yesterday morning to get rid of the 6″ from the night before. Then, it snowed a little off and on all yesterday, and a little last night. So, up this morning [...]
A Blast from the Past
I have been working on some video for clients, putting them in iPod, YouTube and other formats, and was reminded of an old video I have from my days right after retiring from the Air Force. So, I converted it from VHS to DVD, then massaged it into the iPod format, and posted it on [...]
I Saw a Star Last Night
I saw a star last night. You would not have believed it. It had five points and looked exactly like the Star of Texas. It was clear, the air was bitter cold; close to zero, and the moon was unbelievably bright. The air was so dry, that the crystals on top of the deep snow [...]
Fifteen Minutes of Fame
Well, at least 24 hours during this year. I had started posting my images for sale on a website called Image Kind (www.imagekind.com). I had not finished putting them up, and had a couple that, once they got there, just didn’t look right and I was going to replace them. Neat thing about this site [...]
Latest House Shot with Snow!
Well, they tell me that the kind of snow we are having up here is just not normal! The first one was before Halloween, and I don’t know how many times it has snowed since then – maybe 12? Anyway, temperatures continue to average lower, snow continues to pile up and shoveling seems to take [...]
The New Abode
Well, we found this great little place, right next to Deborah’s sister’s house. It’s on 1.3 acres, has a two-car garage, and a workshop further back. Of course, it has a LOT of snow from the last few days, but the price is right! We’re moving into it now…
First Snow!
Well, we’re in the middle of a blizzard – first snow of the year and they expect up to a foot in our region! It’s cold, 30-40 mph winds, and the snow is whipping around! Here’s the first shot from off the deck. Of course, Baxter has NEVER seen snow before, and needless to say, [...]
The Trip to NY
Well, everyone has been asking how the trip up here went, so here’s the report! The auction of items we were selling at the house went fantastic! Melissa from Blue Moon auctions did a fantastic job, and we made well above our target for the items we didn’t want to take with us. As for [...]
Gone to NY…
Well, it’s official – after almost 40 years in Texas, I’m moving to Upstate NY and the Adirondack Mountains. Yes I know, everyone has ALREADY told me I am going to freeze my butt off, but hey – instead of two seasons, I get four, right? So, I intend to start filling this area up [...]
Every Day Smiles in Times Square
So, what does this have to do with Dave’s Diamonds? Well, it’s not every day that your grandson gets his picture up in Times Square on the large electronic display. My son Jason took the picture of Ethan playing in the park. Evidently, this is a promotion by Sony for one of their new cameras [...]
Why a Personal Comments Section?
Well, I’ve got so many folks who keep looking for entries for one thing. Some of them just don’t fit into the ‘professional’ categories of Portrait, Wedding, Landscape, etc. So, I decided to create this section and then put things in here that are just general comments about what’s going on up here, images that [...]
