Perhaps things are going to level out a bit and life won't be quite as hectic for you now. Social networking is flabergasting! There is so much inter-change going on. Personally, I like to keep things simple and least is sometimes best. Even 'friends' can have a tendency to flood the daily mail with stuff that can be really uninteresting from my point of view and I'm sure it probably works for others in the reverse. I do Flickr, +Google and Facebook all of which I ride shotgun on pretty carefully. Others, Nyah..... enjoy you week off old son. I hope to see more of you here.

Where has it all gone. by jayscratch http://www.scratchley.org/2011/09/20/wow-where-has-it-all-gone/comment-page-1/#comment-44740 jayscratch Tue, 27 Sep 2011 22:08:53 +0000 http://www.scratchley.org/?p=444#comment-44740 Summer has flown by indeed and it seems like you have a full schedule ahead - workouts, astronomy, hunting, being a Dad. Great having time with you and getting out to shoot the odd frame or two with the cameras. Wish we could do that more often. Somehow, Edmonton gave us a couple of colds as a going away present :( Summer has flown by indeed and it seems like you have a full schedule ahead – workouts, astronomy, hunting, being a Dad.

Anyways, its called Exhale Forgiveness and its been my mantra for a couple years now. When I googled it, the top 4 or so results were me, then you. http://www.scratchley.org/2008/06/02/smell-these-and-exhale-forgiveness/ I read some of your blog, and have always wished that I spent more of my free time fly fishing... I tried it once and loved it. Have a great one, Ron I’ve been working on my own blog of my writing- I’m a video and multimedia producer by trade.

I did it weekly, monthly and yearly before I retired. Not difficult the more you do it. If you have trouble looking at the audience, look just above their heads, they can't tell. Other thing is, imagine everyone out there sitting in their underwear...old tried and true methods. I used to get a bit tongue-tied once in awhle but to err is human. Good on yer and you did it amongst your peers. Presentations aren’t for everyone. I did it weekly, monthly and yearly before I retired. Not difficult the more you do it.

If it can you to read two books it's definitely worth a look see! As for 500px, I too have joined because it is superior to Flickr in many ways and the standard of photography is so much further ahead. I too am happy to share my pics and get some inspiration to grad that great shot. Definite interest in Kobo from Nana Del. If it can you to read two books it’s definitely worth a look see!
