Open Source Movies
Free, open source tools are the future of software. I’m not the only one who thinks so, either! One of the coolest tools out there that’s both free and open source is Blender. Blender is a full-featured 3D program that … Continued
Finding New Things To Photograph
I write a lot about photography here, which is a little like dancing about architecture. I’ve kind of lost my way with photography subjects. I’m too busy to do some of the things I used to do, like wander the … Continued
The Portable Strobist
Now, you can take David Hobby with you on the road! Okay, not really. I mean, I suppose you can if you’re Joe McNally or somebody like that, but guys like me, and my faithful readers (both of you!), probably … Continued

One-page short-cuts to basic photographic knowledge. Well, after last week, I can tell you that I’m eager to get out and get shooting! But, I’m also really rusty. I mean, it’s been so long since I was shooting photos regularly … Continued
Creative Resolutions
No, I don’t mean New Year’s Resolutions that are “creative”. Rather, I’m talking about making some New Year’s Resolutions regarding creative output. I’ll be honest, this year hasn’t been my most productive, creatively. But, to be fair, I did get … Continued
