It's not that I'm not taking pictures, I'm just not really posting on a regular basis.

I'm starting to see the belated light on post processing. I still need to learn the basics as I am processing by eye to what I think looks good, but so far so good I think

How much is it acceptable to reveal about yourself online? Or others, as some photos in this series may be?

I saw in a brilliantly executed piece in Wired Magazine on this topic recently. On the front copy of their magazine, they sent to a select number on their subscribers list a personalised introduction to the magazine. It read [loosely] something along the lines of:

"Hi Steve, I hope this magazine reaches you well. How was your holiday in Tahiti? I hear it was 24 degrees? I hope that Suzy recovers from the sunburn. Is your phone number still 07891 998 243? Are you still living in Sutton, Birmingham? If so we can send you more information about that car that you said you liked......etc etc".

As a researcher and someone in wider umbrella of the marketing services, I admired the execution of this stunt. I really liked how it got the point across so effectively, raising awareness about privacy and the amount information that is out there, so much of which is user generated. Scary at times, but essentially the doubled edge side of the sword of our networked online lives.

Might have overdone the saturation in this. Plus, I wish she was wearing white tights.

Gracie appears on my stream on a sporadic basis. Aside from becoming one of my closest friends, I love shooting her. Someone once said that as an painter it was impossible to paint her as her expressions changed from photo to photo, and it was hard to commit to a canvas. All I know is that she has the perfect balance of not being indulgent in front of the lens, nor too shy. It's a confidence I love.
