The Most Important Meal of The Day

Sunday, December 30th, 2007

Shooting a series on one subject always feels like a great exercise to me. Not that it just builds a visual muscle, but it can become a very natural part of your day and help you continually look at a subject many different ways. And discover something new along the road. Now you don’t think [...]

Or this green:
[photopress:images.jpeg,full,centered]
But this green:
[photopress:24trut.2.600.jpg,full,centered]
Think about it: the media cards we use recycle the images, computers don’t add fluorocarbons, the batteries for the digital cameras are rechargeable.Most consumers use the internet to share images instead of printing, saving paper, inks and chemistry
