I’ve been a little out of touch because I’ve been a lot out of sorts. Since I spent 3 hours trying to write about that with minimal progress, I’ll save it for later. What I want to talk about is the orange chair. Several people have asked me about the chair in the photograph on [...]

Inspired by some of the great photographers on Flickr, along with turning 45 last month and finding myself looking backward and forward and thinking that I’ve finally got a handle on just who the person inside this lump of flesh is, I decided to start a self portrait project. I spent about 3 hours this [...]
