ART
ART I really like Seth Godwin’s blog. It’s not directly related to photography, but many of his posts certainly relate to business and the business of photography. He often posts things that relate well to Art in general and today was an excellent example of that.. For myself, I have always defined Art as something [...]
It’s Alive!
It’s Alive! After a very painful week, my website is back online and actually working properly. Almost exactly a week ago, I was informed by google that my website had been hacked and was redirecting visitors to some malware sites. Scanning software showed this was a sophisticated hack with malware code throughput my website. After [...]
Hacked
Hacked You may have noticed that the formatting of my website is a little screwed up. Unfortunately, my site was hacked and we are still trying to clean up the mess. It looks like parties unknown decided to breach the security of my site in order to redirect people to a malware site. My first [...]
Istockphoto Photo Hits the wall
iStockphoto hits the Wall Well, it’s seems karma still seems to work. Fast or slow, it eventually shows up. Stock photography is a difficult business and no longer limited to pure professionals.

2010-07-18 Apple Migration – The Saga Continues I was going to call this the final chapter, but the migration work still seems to have a few loose ends. Well, the day started poorly. As I left things last night, my contacts were corrupting themselves to nonsense and my Drobo would drop offline during data transfer. [...]
Migration can be a Pain
2010-07-17 Apple Migration Today is the data migration day. I plan to move my critical data over to the new system and begin to use it as my primary computing platform. Until my esata situations is resolved, I am going to use firewire for my external drives. It’s slower, but one of the reason why [...]
2010-07-16 The Big Migration
2010-07-16 The big migration Well, the laptop is ready, but it’s easy, as I don’t keep critical data there. Now, I am starting on the Mac pro, the big boy, and a move from critical system to critical system. The System No assembly required, as everything was pre-installed and well packed. The unit is very [...]
Apple Arrival
Apple Arrival So, my long awaited apple gear arrived yesterday. On schedule and within the timeframe. Not only that, none of the suprise delivery charges often seen with products being shipped directly into Canada. Delivery required a signature and nothing else. Everything was very well packed with a simple manifest to document the contents. I’ve [...]
Copyright and Geography
Copyright and Geography So, I was reading the Toronto Star (not the paper, the website) this morning and I cam across an article by Micheal Geist. For some reason, Geist has become the spokesperson for copyrights in Canada. Not for the people that actually create intellectual property, or (heavens) try to make a living from [...]
