Paul D'Andrea Photography

Radio Silence

The blog here is back after being offline for a bit. Google’s bots marked it as spam. Go figure. I debated when I started this blog between using something like WordPress that I would have hosted or this, Google’s Blogger. I went with Blogger because I had little enough time as it was without donning the Blog Administrator hat. I just wanted to post photos and thoughts and let them worry about the pipes.

Ah well. We’re back and hopefully now that the blog has been reviewed by a human and marked as ligit we’ll stay that way. :)

So, fun with Photoshop again. I’ve said here before that I really enjoy how roomy photography is. So large that I can circle around: portraits, macros, lighting, post processing fun in Photoshop… I get an idea or a bug for one thing or another, dive into that for a while, then jump on to the next idea or thing to learn.

I’ve been finding that I’m far less frustrated creatively now that I’ve been at this seriously for a while. When you build a good solid set of skills you can really get to creating and beyond fighting with the tools. Practice and play are so essential.
