Welcome!
You’ve stumbled on the current and future home of my ramblings and wanderings through two wonderful worlds that are my hobbies - photography and technology.
Very little of my writing will actually be on the technology portion, except in its relations - honestly, I get enough of that with my job over at Bit-tech.net. If you’re a computer enthusiast and haven’t checked it out yet, I highly suggest you take a flying leap over there and see what the fuss is about.
Since my general technology rantings are taken care of, you’ll find a more photographic bent here. See, I’ve done a lot of reading of a lot of great sites - Luminous Landscape, Strobist, Cambridge in Colour…And all of these sites are great for information. What they’re not great for is understanding the process of learning photography.
There are many ways to learn, but very few of us have time for most of them. Take a class, read a book, get a mentor…we’re a bunch of novices dropped into a busy world, wanting to learn how to capture the moments of it that we hold dear and freeze them. And to do that, we have to learn.
So, here I am - and Wire-trace.com is. I’m not here to teach you, but I hope you learn something. I’m here to experiment on what I consider a glorious hobby. You won’t just read how to take good pictures here - you’ll read how I take bad ones, and how I learned, am learning, or will learn next time. And you can drop your own learnings in the comments section, I’d love to hear them.
You can expect an update twice weekly - every Tuesday and Friday. It may be a photo shoot, it may be a musing or a cool site I stumbled on. Who knows what we’ll find?
