Living in a house full of females, I’m used to being asked questions about hair color, nail polish color and shoe selection. I try to stay away from the clothing selection, unless it’s about a short dress (my dad duties is to approve all dress lengths). I did help pick out Lindsey’s new hair color. Jamie and Kathryn looked at the 400 different hair colors on the shelf at the store and brought me two to pick from. I’m just doing my part to help the ladies in my live look their best, just another one of the great things about being a dad.

Even pet tortoises need a Halloween costume.

Downtown Woodstock has a few new visitors on the streets lately.  The local businesses created scarecrows and placed them along the side of Main Street. Below is just on of the many the line the street.

I was talking to someone about color calibrating monitors for the purpose photo editing. I thought I would share what I use to calibrate mine. I use a Spyder 3 by Datacolor and try to calibrate my monitor once a month. I also calibrate it when I to replace a light bulb in my office, or if for some strange reason I rearrange my office and the lighting setup changes. The Spyder 3 makes it very easy, just start the application and follow the instructions. I really enjoy the last screen of the calibration process where is lets you see and few photographs and you can toggle to before and after views. When I need a second calibrator I’m going to get Spyder 4 Pro. A calibrated monitor makes a world of difference to how the images turn out.

I’m telling you that Lacy is one to the most photographed subject around our house.
