I’m a big fan of David Allen’s book Getting Things Done. When it comes to effective organization you could probably read this book and be done, it really is that good. One issue I have with the book though is that it’s very paper centric. As a Yard-O-Led fountain pen and Rhodia notebook loving scribbler I have to say I can dig that. I really can. But the thing that irks me with a paper based workflow is that eventually, at some point, I know I’m going to have to type my paper notes up!...

From the moment you press the shutter a picture takes on a life which goes from your camera, to your darkroom (be it digital or chemical) where after being burnt and dodged (and in some cases bodged) it goes for printing. You do print your pictures don’t you? I have a hunch that with the advent of digital photography the vast majority of us leave our digital treasures gathering dust on our computer hard drives – I know I certainly do....

After months of procrastinating (and after waving a tearful goodbye to my old site), I have decided upon WordPress for my new photo journal. Combining my irreverent wit and technical prowess I shall be writing about camera tech and hopefully pausing to take a picture or two. No doubt I’ll spend more time fetishizing camera gear than actually showing what it’s capable of, but putting this blog up I feel is accomplishment enough that I can allow myself some bad habits 😉

A small site covering tech, audio, photography, camera gear and anything else which springs to mind.
