This is Why, Photography Edition

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Aside from all of the professional reasons, my wife being from the South, and the warmer weather, there is one other reason why I think moving was worth it.

As a photographer, how could I not appreciate the fact that I can drive less than 30 minutes, and take photos of beautiful mountains?

Or how about the 10 minute drive to one of the loveliest campuses in the US?

Me and my camera are going to like it here in South Carolina just fine!

    Stress and anxiety will happen to everyone eventually, and we’d do well to remember that, but too many do quite the opposite: If you struggle with anxiety at work, chances are, you’re also struggling with adding insult to injury: The “injury” is the anxiety, and the “insult” is being cruel to yourself about it.

    So you want to have your own website and play around with different tools and technologies? Great, just don’t leave a project sitting too long, bad things happen. Case in point, over on the Child Abuse Survivor site, I had created a sub-domain with it’s own WordPress Multi-User install (back when that was a separate…
