31 Photos

I'd like to invite all of you to participate in an experiment cooked up by my friend, Josh Kring. During the month of August, you'll take a photo each day, and post it at 31 Photos (directions on posting are on the site). Hopefully we'll have a bunch of folks participating.

You do not have to be a professional photographer to do this, you basically just have to know how to turn the flash off on your camera! Yes, there are rules, so read them below and remember...Art is born of constraint, and dies of freedom!

The Rules:

-no cropping

-only use available light, (no flash or extra lights)

-no Photoshop or color correcting what so ever

-no in camera color effects, (as in selective color on the Canons)

-no more than 4 self portraits

-each photo must be taken that day

-only post one photo a day

I know the economy's not great, but this is ridiculous.

Neil Young

One of the few people I would have loved to meet when I was working in New York was Neil Young. Looks like I migrated south about a year too early. Neil sat down with Charlie last week. You can watch it here.


Also, if you like Neil but don't have a lot of his music, hurry to Amazon now, because their MP3 deal of the day is his "greatest hits" for just $3.99. I know, I know, don't get me started on how this compilation doesn't even begin to cover the best of Young's career. If you're new to the music, this is actually a nice place to start because you get a lot of great songs from both Rockin' Neil and Contemplative Neil.

Hunter Museum's William Morris exhibition


We had a chance to see the impressive William Morris special exhibition at the Hunter Museum in Chattanooga today. I wasn't familiar with his work, but I'm taken with these intricately detailed glass sculptures that compose an amazing collection very diverse in size, color, and style. Myth, Object and the Animal will be shown through September 29th. Be sure to check it out for free on the first Sunday of each month from noon to 5pm.

This could possibly be the coolest shoe-related story of the decade. Remember those awesome shoes that Marty McFly wore in 2015 in Back to the Future 2? Well, Nike's making 'em. Well, a version of them anyway. No power laces...yet.

I took this photo on my phone this morning from the car window. Needless to say, the gas station isn't open anymore.
