Techno Denbow: The Return
Over a year and a half ago I shuttered up the tech website. Quite simply I devoted most of time to the photography business and the tech news was slim. As of today I am re-launching Techno Denbow not just…
Attitude Adjustment
Lately my attitude has sucked. WonderWife would be happy to fill you in on the details except she knows it would be embarrassing to me. I can’t say I don’t deserve it! As of this moment I am in “search…
Overdue
Lesson # 309 when working freelance for someone, especially in print media: get a contract. I received a letter today from a now former publication explaining why I haven’t received payment in a year even though they used my images.…
Out Of This World
