 12 Mar '10: A heads-up and a plea to my readers: Site changes, spring 2010.
25 Feb '10: Sorry: I've been at it again. Thought I was done with the Masterpieces project for a while, but then I discovered the Wikipedia Commons Botticelli's. So here are my restorations, including some iconic images that few who frequent this site will fail to recognize.
07 Feb '10: Long time since my last addition to this site, but I haven't been goofing off – honest! Instead, I've put in unnumbered hours working on a major upgrade to my unsung masterpiece, Some Masterpieces from the Public Domain (which I should probably rename to Looting the Wikipedia Commons). I've now nearly doubled the number of painting reproductions available to 41, including a "new" Rembrandt, a page of miscellaneous paintings from the Rennaissance through the 1700s, and a page on the Pre-Raphaelites and other 19th century masters of realism. In all, a feast for the eyes.
 02 Jan '10: Time to put a bit of closure on the old Yuletide spirit. Here's my 20 favourite Christmas party shots as an art portfolio: Friendly Snaps 2: Christmas 2009 (Director's Cut.
01 Jan '10: Today starts a new year and a new decade, so perhaps a good time to go back to digital photography kindergarten. If you're a little hazy on the basics or know someone who's just getting started, check out my latest tutorial: Digital Photography 001. As always it's chock-full of colorful illustrations.

As we all realize the human species has pretty much taken over the planet, marginalizing other species. This is a small bit of compensation but every loaf of bread I buy has two heels that rarely get eaten. It costs a few seconds to dice or tear them up, put them back in the empty bag, then take that outdoors to scatter where birds and/or squirrels are likely to find them. Caveats: no white bread, please: only whole grain; and only distribute in human-inhabited areas, not in forests, nature preserves, etc.
