Photography Update: Legion, Mar. 5, 2011
So after a bit of a hiatus, I’m back with some more photos I took yesterday. Considering how I haven’t done much photography in the last little while, I’m reasonably happy with how these turned out. Hope you enjoy them!
Black & White Swing Thing, and Sailor Legion
Okay okay, I know; these should have been up two days ago. I’ve been busy, okay? Regardless, here they are. I didn’t take too many photos at the Black & White Swing Thing, but I think I got a few keepers that turned out nicely. This past Legion event was sailor-themed, so I have a…
May 18 Photography Update
About two months ago, I found myself hitting a brick wall with my creativity. Not just photography in general, but with website design, programming, and life in general. I found myself not producing anything that I considered “up to par”. Thus, my camera found a home, case gathering dust, in my closet, wasting its life away.

Oct. 24 Photography Update
Now that I’ve been taking more photos recently, I’m getting into the habit of posting them up a little more frequently. Rest assured, I’ll keep you all updated when I put up new photos. If you want to take a look at some of my other photos, just head to the gallery. As always, I…
Upcoming Swing Events
For this Monday’s blog post, I’d like to stray a little from my typical technology discussions and focus on something far from that: dance. Not just any kind of dance, though.
