After the past year of using blogger.com, I decided I wanted to move to a method with more flexiblity. WordPress has the reputation that matches the Mac for ease of use and nice, clean and elegant look. Not to mention some of the issues I’ve had with the no-so-friendly themes of blogger.com. It’s not a bad service, I think I just outgrew it for what I want to do.

So in that theme, I will be moving my hackamac blog over to here and start adding new posts here at WordPress.

MS Noordam

Here is the Noordam where myself and about 75 other Mac/Photo geeks lived for 10 days while we sailed around the med. To say we had fun is an understatement. Even my wife who was not a photo or Mac geek when she started the cruise (note the past tense) got into the photography after sitting in one of the classes. Her pictures improved considerably in just a day of shooting in Barcelona.

The running joke for us was the various “death marches” we ended up on after using the official tour bus to get us somewhere and then we would bail out to walk back to the ship. This made for some tough walking given the 100 degrees and the 100% humidity but we managed to get some gorgous pictures long the way.
