I've been doing slideshows on my web for years but have resisted blogs. Even my LiveJournal didn't seem to be what I wanted to do as it was more of a template-driven club than I wanted. I like to be me. WordPress is allowing me to do that in a way. I also like to be me and I'm schizophrenic (maybe?). Google's Blogger Blogspot has a nice template that I also like. So I'm here and there and other places now; slideshows, wordpress blog and blogger photo blog.
I tell you that to tell you this. Part of my experimentation is for my brother-in-law. Although he shoots Canon, I find his photography very affirming. Please visit his new photoblog on Blogger and leave a comment.
