Re-petition, re-creation, re-birth. Re-fresh, re-start. Re-shoot. Re-peat. “Re-up”.

If it is true, important or meaningful, good to repeat it or yourself. For example, repeating to your wife or kids that you love them, or drinking coffee every day (repetition). Or for example …

Every and each day is a new day.

Just think about today.

Don’t think “bad” or “good” people. Think “boring” and “non-boring” (interesting) people.

Laptops are the future, not phones or iPads.

Not enough for incremental improvements, we must strive for and towards the quantum leaps forward and upwards!

All plaid everything.

I don’t want to just feel great, I desire to feel above great.

Don’t buy new, become new.

Stay staunch in your own natural approach and way of (positive) interaction.

Restraint as perhaps a greater pleasure than simply giving in?

My ideal.

The new iPhone SE as a perfect phone:

Dear friends, Some photography ideas for you:

For me, it is photography, motivation, art, aesthetics, and ideas.

What does it mean to gain more power as a photographer? Is it more influence, power and reach you desire? Greater impact?

Your best photos are your new photos:

I prefer the new me over the old me.

Do things because you must, not expecting or desiring praise or “helping” others.

40mm on RICOH GR IIIX— my new favorite focal length:

Macro, through the big and small. Black and white, RICOH GR IIIX. Even a hair casts its own shadow: Fill the frame, in praise of 40mm as a focal length.

Photography as a tool to reveal hidden details, through exposure compensation (making your exposure darker, or brighter).

Slimmer waist, in praise of wearing jeans with belt buckles (to track your waist size), or wearing tighter fitting shorts. The ideal: Slim waist, great and big muscles.
