real estate photography: Unstaged Interiors & White Walls: - 07/03/08 04:30 PM

real estate photography: Updates, Articles?, Some neat MS software, and you guessed it..pics! :) - 08/06/07 08:32 PM
I'm probably the worst Active Rainer on here. Once a consistent participant I've sunk to random updates and very occasional lurking. :)

No, no...not my site. That's more like an odd nightmare caused by a gas bubble during a cat nap.
I'm talking about http://www.photo.net
Photo.net is going to expand on that effort and more. It's simply an amazing … (8 comments)

If you are anything like me you've had the...um...you know, occasional mishap.
OK, wait...I need to be a little more forthright.
