i was taking a photo when it happened...

this photo is included in the book, XGRAY VISION 2009

aka, the flash. (just a bit of an homage to douglas coupland)

...could also be called fun with overexposure.

i'm pretty close to healed up at this point, so hopefully i'll be posting more soon. the only photos i've taken recently have been with the ricoh grd 2, so i have also been going back through my library looking for photos that would've been posted had i not been all gimpy.

also the day job has been a bit crazy recently, as our big annual conference thing is next week, which means further delay for me to really get back into my photography groove, as i'll be busy taking photos of that all week (nothing you're likely to see or even want to see, unfortunately).

hopefully i'll be back at it for reals after that.

thanks for all the well wishes over the past couple weeks, i really appreciate it.
