Busy Weekend

But it seems I don’t have much to show for it!  I did get a new YouTube video posted about some useful photo equipment to have if you want to do macro photography.  I had planned to also have a video of my photo shoot where I was actually using said equipment, however the mic wasn’t actually plugged in while making that video, so I will have to re-do that one.  Oh well, I need the practice anyway, so that’s at least something.  Once I get that done, I really … Continue reading

I’ve tried to make a couple more videos for my YouTube channel.  One was on macro photography and … Continue reading

A few bumps during the move…

Apparently when I moved the blog over to this domain I lost all my stats.  Bummer, since the blog has been around for over five years.  I did put in a help-request, but I’m skeptical that I’ll ever recover the stats from my old blog over on wordpress.com  🙁 In other news, I’m experimenting with doing some ‘How-To’ videos over on YouTube.  For now I’m concentrating on making some photography videos, but eventually I would also like to make some pertaining to gardening, web-design/programming, and maybe some occult topics.  I’ve … Continue reading
