Photography, Fiction, Travel, and Opinions.
Crop of Nikon D200 NEF (RAW) file - as shot I planned to write a lengthy email giving Topaz Labs some feedback on their Topaz Photo AI app, but then I figured it would be too difficult to cover everything in an email. So, here we are. Fair Warning: this post might only interest Topaz... Continue Reading →
Bombing Run I previously mentioned I've been snapping a lot of photos . . . so I have an excuse for not working on the story that's due in a few weeks as I instead work on this post. This is a short post because I have other stuff to do (stuff that's also not... Continue Reading →

Super quick post to let readers know there are only two days left to vote. If you are a reader of our stories and someone who votes, thank you in advance for casting a vote for your favorite of the three. Links to the stories and the poll for voting for “Alphabet Challenge U-Stories”... Continue Reading →
An uptick in voting has restored the confidence of the writers. With three days left to vote, we hope we'll see the usual late surge. If you are a reader of our stories and someone who votes, thank you in advance for casting a vote for your favorite of the three. Links to the... Continue Reading →
Getting down to the last few days — three — of the Alphabet Challenge "T" Stories voting round. We're on our way to another pretty good turnout, as far as votes go. It still looks like there are lots of visitors who abstain from voting (and probably from reading), but, overall, the writers are pleased... Continue Reading →
Two days left in The Alphabet Challenge "O" Stories round and — what do you know? — the voting round is showing some signs of life. Perhaps all my begging is not going to waste. . . . so, just a few more times, if you'one of them and have not already done so —... Continue Reading →
Three days left in The Alphabet Challenge "O" Stories round and it's official . . . this will go down as a low participation round. With three days left, I don't see a slew of voters coming in from a cruise or something and casting 20+ votes. Heck, they're probably in quarantine from the cruise. ... Continue Reading →
Four days left in The Alphabet Challenge "O" Stories round and it's looking to be a low participation round. It happens, and we hope for better in the future, and I'm almost past even asking . . . . . . but, just in case, if you've not already done so — please read the... Continue Reading →
I bug, but there's no love for The Alphabet Challenge "O" Stories. Voting has stopped in its tracks and it ain't budging. The writers are at a loss to explain the sudden dearth of voters. Worse yet, it appears the stories are getting some eyes on them . . . OK, I exaggerate a bit... Continue Reading →
Perry and Gary have sent me their "N" stories . . . and I'm close to getting an idea for a story. Yes, I'm late again. If I get hit by a flash of inspiration and a case of fast-finger-typing, there's a small chance I might be able to put something up later . .... Continue Reading →
The Alphabet Challenge "M" Stories voting has stalled. The "M" stories, mired and morose and melancholy, sit waiting for kind readers to stop by and give them a chance to enthrall, or at least entertain. . . . er . . . mired and morose and melancholy are not the story titles; it's just their...
