Great ideas, I hate the hyphen too, I always forget to insert it, even when someone tells me, they are a mental block waiting to happen.
Love to hear some chatter about how you choose your images for web sites. Obviously your images are fabulous, and really MAKE a site stand out. How do you choose which images to use, and how should a new or small business proceed with this?

Comment on Ghost Ship: How to paint with light by Joanie Robinson

Jim … I don’t know if I’ve ever met you or not … could have been, I’m a bit older than you, I’m sure. I’ve gone to Monhegan for about 22 years in a row. Stayed with June Day, Barbara H., at Ed Deci’s cabin and lots of other places. Have done and am still doing paintings of where my heart resides,…. Monhegan (and, of course, Maine). I’ve painted with Clay Kent (I was ‘ok’ but my sister who accompanied me one year, really benefited and was really good) and am dear friends with Marie, to whom I still write, along with Paul Niemic and others. I’ve seen and been following, with iterest, YOUR work and words for a long while now and I have to tell you what joy your creations have given me to date. This painting with light really caught my interest and appreciation for your talent and I was moved to write you a wee note and tell you so. You’re an inspiration and a real creator and just wanted to tell you so. I was saddened to hear of Mary Barney’s passing. I knew her only slightly and was familiar with the Mary Day …a beauty…. and she will be deeply and sadly missed I know. Ever since I went to Monhegan and other places in Maine back in 1972, my life changed and perhaps I might even end up there one day,…. who knows,…. life is so changeable and full of surprises. Have a great fall and winter and keep up the good work.

Yes, I carried a tripod. I knew they’d be long exposures and I’d need a tripod. Some of the fireworks exposures were 30 seconds at f/11. I shoot both Raw and JPG because sometimes I want a quick look and dealing with Raw is time-consuming. My laptop is old and barely able to open a Raw file.

Well Jim! You have done it now. Raised the bar once again. Comments are coming in to my blog with undying admiration for your work. Did you carry a tripod up Mt Battie with you?? And why shoot both jpgs and raw if you can take the raw and make it a jpg? Thanks from us for sharing your beautiful images. Nice to have a slideshow.

Jim: you solved a dilemma for me. I had been thinking about checking out Twitter, but your post convinced me not to.

Thanks,
