A Study in Phone Photography

I've had my Blackberry (the Curve aka 8300) for almost a year now. On occasion when I am without my trusty Canon camera I have used the Blackberry in its place. After reviewing my first year of pictures I have concluded that I wish I had my Canon with me more but you do get some interesting photos from a phone. And with that, please enjoy my study in phone photography.

The phone is quite handy for catching animals at the zoo...

No better way to show you have a really close seat...

Vacation Movies

I have posted several movies from my recent vacation. These were all shot with my camera not a camcorder so quality isn't amazing but should give you the idea. Below is a quick movie of Lisa showing off her boogie boarding skills (no sound).

Here is the link for all the additional movies. The movies are designed to give you an idea of what the resort looks like. Most movies don't have sound because all you get is the wind noise. Enjoy!

Actual Completed Closets

The closets are finally done! They were scheduled to complete the install the Friday before we left for vacation but due to a big storm, I rescheduled to save the installation team from a 3 hour commute each way. On Tuesday they came back and finalized the drawers.

Here's a picture of the full complete closet.

Completed Closets

Today was my closet install. Unfortunately due to mistakes made in the factory they are only about 85% done. Hopefully the company can come back this week and finish everything. That said, here is the photo story on my closets.
