Updates

This year was a big year for me. As it comes to an end, I feel like I am more than ever aware and in control of my priorities. I’ve restructured the way I’ve thought about getting things done, and as a result, some projects have taken a back seat. I didn’t intentionally mean for [...]

Another Feed Reader Mistake!

I still inked to the wrong feed reader link. Again, if you have previously subscribed to an rss, subsscribe to the atom instead, otherwise you’ll see only about 1 in 10 of my posts! Subscribe to the new atom feed!

Change Your Feed Settings!

So several people have told me that my posts aren’t showing up in their various feed reader clients. I’m not really sure what’s going on, but I’ve pinned the source – RSS! For some reason, the RSS 2.0 feed URL is not working. So, if you’d like to stay up to date with what I [...]

Hey Chicago Photographers!

Digressions used to be a place where I could post stories, anecdotes, and relevant information about the pictures I took, the [...]
