• Our first few weeks here in Illinois have been rather gloomy weatherwise and for a while Jessie was really down in the dumps. I can’t change the weather, but in an effort to cheer her up I thought it would be nice if I did a tropical theme for my first “post-move” wallpaper. The image, called “Vigil“, is now up for your review. A widescren is also available. Hope you like it!
• I’ve taken down the links to purchase my CDROM (V.5). I will be putting together V.6 shortly and I hope to have it up before the end of the month. I also plan on doing at least one Calendar.
• I got to see a rather awesome display of the Northern Lights earlier in the week. I was able to sit out in front of my house (in freezing temps) and take a few pictures. Here’s one of them which I think turned out rather nice. The photo is a 30 second exposure which helps bring out the colors (it didn’t look this bright and colorful to the naked eye). It was only my second time seeing the Aurora and it gets cooler every time!

• I’d like to thank you all for being so patient while I go through this transition. Things are about as settled in now as they are ever going to be, so I started work yesterday on a new wallpaper. I can’t give you an ETA, but I thought you would like to know that something is in the works.

  In other news, I’ve added about thirty 2560 x 1600 renders. They scattered throughout the widescreen gallery. I want to have the rest done shortly so I can include them on Version 6 of my CDROM, which I hope to have out before the end of the month. I’ve also added 6 new posters to my Zazzle collection, including my first “widescreen” poster. I may add more of those later.

  Lastly, thanks to Brent McAleer for pointing out to me that Digital Blasphemy was mentioned on the BBC World show “Click Online”. If you are interested you can check it out, and even watch the show, from here.

  Now back to work for me…

• Just checking in to let you all know that the move went fine. We were on the road for 5 days and then had to stay in a hotel for 3 days while our belongings caught up with us. We moved into our new house a couple of days ago and are slowly rebuilding our lives. I finally got my workstation back online last night so I can post this update. We still have quite a bit of unpacking and organizing to do. Luckily we have plenty of people willing to keep Ian occupied while we work. I’ll post again when I’ve got everything settled and I’m ready to get back to work. Thanks everyone for being patient!

• It’s been a crazy couple of weeks around here. We hit the road for Illinois Wednesday, so we’ve been scrambling to get everything packed up and ready to move. We’re almost there.

  In the midst of all this madness, I was able to sit down and create one last wallpaper before we hit the road. It’s up now on the new images page; an abstract which I call “Orthohedron”. A widescreen is also available. I know some of you were hoping for a Halloween image, but there just wasn’t time to do put one together. Maybe after the move, but if not then definitely next year.

  Anyway, this will be my last post from sunny California. Wish us luck on the four day roadtrip with a one year old…

• Dual and Triple screen versions of “October Flame” are up.
• I took this picture of Ian yesterday (in his first pair of tennis shoes). He looks less and less like a baby every day.
