It's before 6:00 a.m. and already this morning I've: Walked Alice (1 mile). Did a 30-minute walk/run on the treadmill. Meditated for 10 minutes. Wrote a couple of pages in my journal. I would like to adopt this routine every morning, but I'm usually only good for maybe two of the above. Working on it.

The basic skill of programming is not writing code, it’s solving incredibly tedious puzzles over and over every day for years to produce a new app that everyone will hate being forced to use.

My photographic style could best be described as, "All of them."

I sent my Hasselblad 500C/M, 80mm Planar lens, and an A12 back to David Odess for a CLA in 2018. The camera has worked like new ever since. I just learned that Mr. Odess passed away recently (Aug. 2023). This is sad for the obvious reasons, but it's also sad because a lifetime of knowledge and craft around maintaining the Hasselblad V system has been lost.
