I think it may develop into something fun.
What I love about this shot is the look between the wipers. There's a richness, which you never get with an inexpensive camera. But the light, the texture, everything was just right. One of those wonderful accidents.

Please Don't Outsource Your Personality... - 06/12/10 10:22 PM
A local company in town claiming to be social media experts has recently offered a service to real estate agents that will take care of your Tweets, Facebook updates, Linkedin, and blog content for a small monthly fee. They’re offering you a social media system.
