Blog for One

Last update to this blog was in July. I am getting lax, I think.

We recently travelled to Germany (Frankfurt, Stuttgardt, Munich, Berlin and the Rhine region)

Cleanest city: Munich
Coolest city: Berlin

The eurail pass is definitely the way to go. Excellent network of trains with an up-to-the-second web site allowed us to plan our days from the comfort of our hotel room.

If you are planning on taking the citynightline train from Munich to Berlin, think small. The sleepers are tiny.

I used to be a photography nut as a kid.  I covered a few events, and even ventured into photojournalism before becoming a complete nerd with computers.

Now, I find myself back into photography in a big way, and the tools have changed.  No more darkroom, now there’s photoshop.  It used to be that film was finite, so one chose one’s shots carefully, now woth digital cameras, an infinite amount of pictures are possible.

Because film is no longer a limiting factor, I think this has significantly raised the bar on what makes a good picture.

The upgrade went more or less smoothly, but now everything seems to be working.

Need to check my statpress db to make sure I’m not filling up the server..
