There is nothing worse than when you overheat then your head pops off and someone steals your jelly beans…. Reshared post from +Dan Morrill Jelly Bean is so ridiculously hot that the JB statue overheated, and his head partially melted and popped off. And then we think somebody stole one of the jelly beans. People: please don't steal our jelly beans. Anyway, they've got the poor guy coned off now, for your safety but mostly for mine. But fear not, the designer is already working on a bug fix.

Just think if everything was built with this level of care…. Thanks to +Doug Fresh for posting this up…I sadly cannot easily embed the video without just reposting vs. resharing it… http://youtu.be/LAfSfnykXfo View this post on Google+

In album I have to say – I hate window stickers on cars that tell bad people exactaly how many people are in my family and who they can take advantage of.. That said this sticker set from ThinkGeek is pretty cool…..I might need to order these and stick them all over stuff like the Danbo's in so many photos… Description: We had some fun conversations in the office as we tried to come up with families that we could create with this set of stickers. Dad as Darth Vader, Mom as Slave Leia? Ew, no. Dad as Chewbacca, Mom as Padmé Amidala? Let's not think about that. Dad as Han Solo and Mom as Leia would work, but would they really produce a Yoda and a tiny Stormtrooper? Show off your family's love of Star Wars with this set of 50 character decals, featuring 19 distinct characters from the saga. Everyone can pick the character that suits them best with plenty of decals left over for a second vehicle, a bedroom window, or an X-wing Fighter. If anyone asks about the canonically-impossible family on your back windshield, just blame your children. Nobody could be mad at their adorable faces […]

I highly recommend these trainings +Trey Ratcliff does online – Especially for the beginner, thou any semi pro or pro could get great info from them also I took the HDR tutorial and not only did I learn a ton (I had never shot one HDR before the online seminar) but I made cool friends and still have copies of the tutorial to reference. I do not shoot everyday and I forget a ton of things, to be able to shoot back into the seminar and refresh my memory is worth the money alone. Right now you and a friend can sign up for the class for a special price, I am actually going to sign up myself and one of my employees as a gift as he is just starting out and this will get him up to speed in a very short time frame.  Here is the link to use for the special deal: http://goo.gl/LGsWx I usually never promo anything I have not used, in this case I have paid for with my own money and will again. You cannot beat this price for the amount of information you will get. This post has been reshared 3 times on Google+ View this post on Google+

#subtleSunday  – Something a bit more moody, I am interested what people think…  I know I have my issues, but this was from an older shoot and I will hopefully get a chance soon to re-shoot this with this model…..  View this post on Google+

Do the filters you use add to your photography or detract from it even thou you are not willing to admit it? Let's hear what you think and how you have balanced your use of filters… do you make a crap photo look better with filters or do you take a well done shot that needs little to no work and then tweak from there? Are you a #filterabuser  or a #filteruser  ? +Nik Software +onOne Software  View this post on Google+

I think I would be if I did not drive a truck where the options outlined would be pretty prohibitive.. but I hate donuts spares, there only good use is me laughing at people who use them on all 4 wheels as primary tires…. http://www.freep.com/article/20120618/COL14/206180336/Mark-Phelan-Spare-tires-vanishing-as-more-cars-come-with-lightweight-repair-kits Mark Phelan: Spare tires vanishing as more cars come with lightweight repair kits Losing your spare tire is synonymous with losing weight, for people and now for cars.

In album ! Best of Portraits (1 photo) >+***** some +1 love……… And Reshared it so we can get a pro level portrait to the top of what's hot. I like landscapes but it's time for a change…. Hey +Karen Hutton I know you like +Lindsey Stirling music…. Reshared post from +Scott Jarvie Another Side For those of you that are familiar with +Lindsey Stirling and her work… an image like this might not come to mind. Lindsey and her music are full of life and energy and it's hard to not listen to her music or look at her without a huge smile. Perhaps people look at me the same way… a goof off, a character, always smiling and lighthearted. The other sideAs with me, I believe there is another immensely spiritual and deep side to Lindsey and I'm happy to have perhaps captured a glimpse of it in this picture. And while I'm happy to report there are a plethora of fun Lindsey pictures in the batch… this one will be one of the more unique and more interesting views.(Though of course I very much doubt this will be selected as the new Album Cover that we were out there to […]
