Welcome!

Through an unfortunate incident involving a microwave, a time machine and a Twinkie (I should have used a Zinger), all my former blog entries were deleted. Yes, that's right - this tech-savvy, web 2.0 guy managed to delete the wrong blog this morning. Say it with me - "ooops".

But stick around - because I'll be blogging more frequently than I did before the aforementioned mixup. What will I be blogging about? Good question - here's a better answer: photography tips and tricks, including digital-specific issues as well as Photoshop and other post-processing pointers. Over the next few weeks, expect to see blog entries on the following:

• basic photo composition & technique
• exposure and the three things that make up every exposure (ISO, shutter speed and aperture)
• light - and some simple ways to enhance and manipulate it
• how to improve your family snapshots
• how to manage your growing library of digital photos
• simple Photoshop tips that will dramatically improve your photos

If you have a specific question or issue that you'd like me to tackle, just let me know and I'll blog on it just for you! See you back here soon... but in the meantime, keep shooting!
