A.D.D.

Quick, get me some Ritalin……actually, get some for everyone out there.  We’re going to need it! Since getting back into a larger company again I’ve been noticing a trend with co-workers and the folks we deal with outside of the office on a daily basis.  It seems we’ve all got Attention Deficit Disorder.  And I’m [...]

The blog still lives

While I’m not blogging often, the blog itself lives on.  I know this for a fact because yesterday I had 5 different contacts from readers.  Neat. Some were missing me and my posts.  Thanks guys, I’m still around, just busy earning a living.  Others got in touch for free information of one type or other.  [...]

It’s nice when clients appreciate your work enough to return to you again. The firm, Merit Engineering, makes concrete saws. Not the sexiest photo topic ever, [...]

Another happy client

This weekend one of my Senior Reps popped in to review their final images and make some selections.  Gotta say, everybody was extremely happy with our final products.       I do enjoy mixing it up with clients.  Some composites, some time in the Dells (at their request), a little time in town……  That’s [...]
