why

ah the 2 edged sword that is the digital camera - you can see a photo as soon as you've taken it and you don't end up paying a fortune to buy and develop countless films but the same ever-improving  technology that enables the former results in the user, generally speaking, taking many many more photos than they would have using film. 

which not only makes it a daunting task to sit down at the end of a long trip to sort and edit and label and if you're really lucky actually get around to actually putting some as physical prints in an album, but none of your family or friends really want to sit through the five trillion photos you took on your exotic trip to wherever :) 

which is also not to say that everyone doesn't have some awesome photos they want to share (show off). this is what this blog is about. i am going to flick through the thousands and thousands of photos i have taken since i got my first digital camera about 5 years ago, pick out the good (subjective i know) ones and tell the little story about each one. 

i will be aiming for one a day - it will be no more than this, although it may conceivably end up being less depending on other stuff happening in this life i live :)
