Getting closer to the big photography day here. Going to be shooting a wedding this upcoming weekend, and I’m hoping this goes well. Normally, I shoot nature and landscape type photos, but I’m always eager for growth in my hobbies.

The photo attached to this blog entry is of two doors near my wife’s office. I really enjoy finding random subjects while I’m out and about.

We’ve been out modelling for each other in different environments to prepare for the wedding shoot. Watch for more photos from these places soon

Found one of those Geocaching Gems out there – a place full of solitude and tranquility, right in Downtown Burlington

Million Micro March

Well, the Ontario Geocaching Association is holding a contest through June 21, 2007 – to see who can place the most geocaches in Ontario. This will lead  to many more finds, but it will be interesting to see how the quality vs quantity argument plays out with local cachers. Will Hamilton become another Erie, Pennsylvania with micros in every parking lot? Will the OGA Executive’s argument that it’s membership is above such things hold true? This will be interesting to see.

The upshot of this, either way, is more geocaches and that means our weekly caching night will have plenty of spots to visit before we run out of caches to find.  If you are a geocacher in Ontario, and have an idea for a cache, this might be the time to place it.



Take That, Large Record Labels!

Well, this is interesting: http://bumrushthecharts.blogspot.com/. It seems the podcasting world intends to show the major recording labels who’s boss.  It will be interesting to see how successful they are at doing this.

Of course, the cynic in me also thinks this could just be a method of getting large revenue for one specific independant artist…..
