I went up to Syracuse University tonight to see a lecture by professional photographer, Stephen Wilkes. He was phenomenal and his work was quite amazing. My favorite was the Ellis Island series he did: http://www.ellisislandghosts.com/ Check out his work, he is truly a master of this craft. He said something during the lecture that I have heard/read several times before but it reminds me how long it takes to really be "an expert". He said you have to do something for at least 10,000 hours to master it. I have many more hours to go!

9 March 2010: A Little Of This...A Little Of That
It was a long day...after leaving at 5am to drive to NYC for a meeting, I stopped in Princeton en route to Glenside, PA. Several hours later, here are a few of the results of the days travels. You have seen the Finnster in previous post and you will be happy to know that he is growing like crazy, walking like a champ and cute as ever! 18 February 2010
18 February 2010: A Diamond In The Rough
If you have ever been to Trinity College in Hartford, CT, you know that it is a beautiful campus surrounded but a pretty rough and gritty neighborhood. Here are a few shots of some of the campus buildings - a very old world feel!
17 February 2010: An Evil Plot In Our Midst
Not a great picture because I did not want to get too close to the "United Cookies" for fear of being recruited into their evil plot. I spent 4 hours sitting across from these cute cookie cartoons and the Girl Scouts yelling about cookies and giving out free samples! Really!?!? Is it necessary to taunt me with peanut butter patties (now called tagalongs for some reason). I did not succumb to buying any but I did get a free sample as I was leaving the building! HA! HA! HA! I beat you EVIL cookies slingers!

I have had a little obsession with feathers this month. This was I found on the ground while visiting Hamilton College.
