Now that I’m back to writing Sunday Morning Reflections, I’m aware of the fact that I’ve really missed the opportunity just to go on a rant regarding whatever is on my mind and this morning it’s about people who make assumptions. We all do it, some more than others.  We do it in our personal [...]

We’ve got great friends here this weekend, Bob and Holly Coates. Bob and I first met at WPPI years ago, then came Holly, then the four of us getting together in Sedona and the list of dinners around the country at various conventions goes on and on, but the topic this morning isn’t about the wonderful [...]

I used to post seven days a week and realized I was simply burning out. So, after thinking about it, I decided traffic on most blogs is slow on the weekends and I’d get back to just five days a week.  This morning I woke up and realized I miss the Sunday morning banter.  So, I’m back [...]

I haven’t written a Sunday Morning Reflection in a long time, choosing to spend the mornings with Sheila, rather than writing a post. Well, we’ve got a long-time friend of Sheila’s here for the weekend and while they’re doing girl talk, I’ve got time. I feel like writing about what I’ve often referred to as the best [...]

It’s a wonderful lazy Sunday morning. It’s a great time to catch up on loose ends and then, after an hour or so, work’s put away for the day.  What I’m dealing with this morning is my thought process on the photo politics of Northern Ohio. I just don’t get it!
Here’s a prime example: I was able to [...]

Okay, so I admit it – I miss doing weekend posts.  I was approaching burn-out and decided to move Skip’s Photo Network to five days a week and take the weekend off. That was at the beginning of the year, but I honestly miss the weekend posts.  The weekend gave me a chance to veer off course from imaging [...]

Okay, so I know I said I’d be doing weekend posts over at GoingPro, but old habits are hard to break. The other day I ran a post of Matthew Jordan Smith’s called “Just for the fun of it!”  Well, we were out shopping yesterday and I couldn’t resist the winter sale at the pet shop, [...]

I’ve had a number of conversations with photographers over the last couple of weeks about down time projects. Here’s the idea – for most professional photographers, this is the slowest season of the year. January, February and March things are pretty quiet, with the exception of the multitude of trades shows and conventions you should [...]

I’ve got absolutely nothing to write about this morning except to wish everybody a wonderful weekend and hope everyone is having the kind of morning we are. It’s the usual scenario – Sheila’s got her coffee and is at the desk on her laptop. I’m trying to write a blog and Ms. Molly is sound [...]

It’s just a short thought this morning about “anticipation”.
I’m in San Antonio and in a few hours will hit IUSA. I have very little true business I have to do at the show and I picked up a lousy head-cold on the way down, but that won’t hold me back from the excitement of seeing friends [...]
