I'm really close to rolling out a Panorama collection, which will contain panoramas already featured on my site plus canvas gallery wraps.
New sails have been ordered! I'll post some pictures once I get them!

 Welcome to my
first newsletter…I really wasn’t expecting the number of subscribers in such a
short amount of time, so I think it’s time to move past the boring auto-generated
emails and start something a little more fresh!
These emails
will only come out every other week, or when I feel I need to share something
that I deem significant. Since we all
have limited attention spans (myself guilty of it more than the rest of you), these
will be short and take no more than 60 seconds to review unless you click on
the links. I’ll recap whatever has
happened in my world of photography and sailing, and include any new
photography prints & specials. When
the day comes that I finally cast-off (186 days), I’ll provide a link of my
current latitude & longitude to view on Google Maps.
As always, you
can unsubscribe using the link at the bottom of this email. Or even better, use the Forward link to share
with your friends!

| Coastal Carolina Collection |
|
In case you haven’t noticed, I’ve streamlined the photo browsing &
ordering process. And, since prints of
Scotland and Italy don’t sell too well in the small towns of eastern North
Carolina, I’ve added a Coastal Carolina collection. I will be continually adding more prints to
this collection as I explore the area.

Man-Sewing
1/23/2012 |
 I don’t know which of the
following was more difficult: buying a sewing machine, using a sewing machine,
or admitting that I have/use a sewing machine. Just wait til the guys at
work hear about this. Don’t worry, I was able to justify it. It’s a
semi-industrial sailmaking sewing machine (a Sailrite LSZ-1), weighs nearly 50
pounds, and is blue. Blue is a man’s color. And a recent article
in Good Old Boat magazine was titled “Real sailors sew”.
It should, in theory, save me thousands of dollars over a few years.
Assuming I can get past figuring out how to thread it. Continue reading →

Photo of the Week; week of 1/23/2012
1/29/2012 |
I had good intentions, I really did. I’m talking about my self-imposed weekly photography assignments. It sounded like a great idea, one that I’ll hang on to. But the reality of my current situation is that I don’t have the time to stalk these assignments every week and come out with something that I’m proud of. For example, last week’s assignment was to create something with an exposure longer than one second. My availability did not lend to finding compositions that would require exposures that long. I’ll definitely be keeping up with the photo of the week, but after the above excuses, I’ll just be looking for targets of opportunity. Like what Monday’s fog presented. Continue reading →
