One of things I’ve been lagging on in the past month are photos I took on my Italy. I came home with about 800 photos on my Nikon DSLR alone. There’s some great shots of Tuscan hill towns like Pienza, Siena, Montepulciano, and Cortona. Also managed to do some night shoots in Florence and Lucca. …

Almost a year
The post title refers to a couple things. First, my son Mason is turning one year old on August 2. My amazement about that is just impossible to put into words. I’ve had this “Write Post” screen up for about an hour trying to put my thoughts into words that capture all the emotions I…
