Over two days ago the rest of my family left for a trip. I stayed home to get some time alone, take care of the dog, and get an extended break from being a primary care giver. I decided I wanted to do creative works & asked people for thoughts and ideas.

One of my projects this year is to make sure I pick up & use my main camera every day. So far I over 6,500 shots his year, that’s about a 66 pix average per day.

I shot over 300 images the past two days.

Yesterday

I asked people for things they wanted me to shoot, many people submitted ideas, but here are some:

There was one hard challenge:

A shot nobody else can take. One where you have to be there now or it’s gone.

Today

Well, let me tell you the story of today, starting at lunch.

Dog Walk [Best Shot]

March 1, 2011 by jon

On this day I took this dog out for a walk. It was a nice day, but the pictures actually make it look more dark and gloomy then I remember.

Picked this shot because it was the best one of the dog … it was also the first shot of a few I took as we walked. It’s interesting how the first shot I take tends to be the best.

The babies and the dog get along together well. Some of the best days are when everyone sleeps.

Sun Tyler [Best Shot]

December 23, 2010 by jon

Recently I decided to focus a little more on photography. With this, from time to time I’ll throw up the best shot of the day.

This is the second or third day I have laid my hands on this new camera. My puppy dog was laying in the sun fur a little while and I managed to get this shot along with a few others.

Proverbs 26 – Your Business: Foolish Mad Dog Ears

March 26, 2009 by jon

Don’t respond to the stupidity of a fool;
you’ll only look foolish yourself.
You grab a mad dog by the ears
when you butt into a quarrel that’s none of your business.

Proverbs 26:4 & 17 from The Message

It is normal for a person to have an instant reaction to correct a person who is wrong, especially on simple facts.

One technique in business espionage is to talk to an official in an organization, not high ranking, but someone who would know the data, and purposefully undervalue the numbers you want. Try it sometime, go ask someone about their job and make sure to downplay the importance, value, or achievements by stating a lesser number and see what type of reaction you get. [Read more…]

You made it this far …

I am always looking to me more leaders, linchpins, and problem solvers. We need more people to take on a business owner mindset, to seek out pains and problems then find ways to provide value to others.

Let's connect.
