I Miss Having A Cell Phone
If you've been following along with my pictures and stories, you're probably aware that we don't have it all that bad over here ... certainly not compared to some troops in other parts of Iraq, and definitely those in Afghanistan. But, human nature being what it is, of course I've still got a few minor gripes ... mainly about my access to the Internet (cue: wife Ana rolling eyes as she reads this). ..read more
Busted For Speeding
Would you believe that even here on our little deployed base, we've got traffic cops? Seriously. I've never been pulled over for speeding, like these unfortunate gentlemen. However, I did have the "pleasure" of dealing with one of these young Airmen a couple of months ago, when I first got here.
I was driving one of my guys back to his room after his shift was over. About half way ..read more
One Antidote For Dull and Ordinary Pictures
I very rarely; ok pretty much never; just save/share my pictures straight from the camera (it probably has something to do with the fact that I shoot everything in RAW). But really, a fairly large part of making a dramatic picture, happens in the post processing stage ... back in the film days, this "magic" took place in the dark room ... now in the digital age, having some photoshop skills are every ..read more
Ok I Guess I Won’t Talk About Jock Itch
But if you're a guy, and you take a trip somewhere really hot, the LAST thing in the world you want to Forget is your bottle of Medicated Body Powder.

I explained to her at the time that in all likelihood, I would probably be relatively safer during my time in Iraq than I would at home ... simply because I wouldn't have to drive back and forth to work every day (on Kunia Road).
That prediction proved ..read more
But I Don’t Want My Picture Taken
Tough, I'm taking it anyway !
I swear some people will go to such great lengths not to have their picture taken. Seriously if they'd just stand still for even a couple of seconds I might be able to create a seriously cool portrait for them. But NOOOOO ... instead they have to go moving around, and trying to cover their face with their shirt. Well hey Mr "you're ..read more
My Macbook Pro Got A Bath Today
Today was cleaning day. My room finally got to the point where even I couldn't take it any more. So I turned in my laundry, changed the sheets, swept and mopped the floors, and dusted all the furniture, and last but not least broke out the wipes so I could clean my laptop and extra monitor. And then, because having a nice clean room is a relatively "special" occasion, of course ..read more
