Nope, I still haven’t recovered from my very long weekend, and I still haven’t gone through all my photos, but I’d like to share one with you.
Meet Sgt. Magleo, one of several military men at the 12th Philippine International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta. He was sitting in one of four APCs sent over [...]

Brian Auer and six other fine art photographers have teamed up to bring you Fine Art Photoblog and have promised “fresh photos posted every day from one of the seven amazing artists.” That’s a pretty bold claim - it isn’t very easy to produce something worth printing, not to mention selling, on such a [...]

I have a feeling I’ll be sleeping in on Monday.
