On the photography front
We recently picked up a Lensbaby variable focus lens (ours is a 3G) and are absolutely having a blast with it.
Could we replicate the effect in Photoshop? Well, sort of, but it wouldn’t be easy or 100% right.

Getting Organized: We Love Ticky Boxes
Everyone knows the best way to stay organized during the holiday season is to make lists. Lots and lots of lists. (OCD? What OCD?) We’ve got lists for home, lists for work…sometimes we’ve even got lists that keep track of our lists. There’s nothing wrong with that. Why, what have you heard?

Adobe Lightroom Beta: First Impressions Count For A Lot
We’ve been using iPhoto to collect and organize all our photos. Back when we just had a bunch of snapshots, it worked fabulously; now that we’re routinely wrangling not just hundreds but thousands of images, iPhoto isn’t quite hacking it. To be fair, no one ever said iPhoto was the right tool for the professional [...]
