Take the time to explore and play with your post processing, as well as your capturing techniques for that matter. Don't be afraid, or self-conscious. No one has to see your efforts if you don't want them to. But you may find that it will stretch your mind creatively and inspire new thoughts about how to approach your subjects. Push yourself too far, then come back. Try new directions. You'll know when to stop, then realize it wasn't time and keep going. Have fun and play with the possibilities.

You may have noticed that the blog has gotten a bit of a face lift. Well that was to mirror my new website at www.JohnOConnorPhoto.com. New portfolios have been added (a couple more may be on the way soon) and new images have been added to the existing ones. I've also added Special Edition 'Gift' Prints and an Inventory Sale page as an option to purchase any of my images at a very inexpensive price. There's even a 'buy 3 get the 4th free' deal, so check it out. And finally, new Services have been added, including private workshops and custom image file processing.

Please take a look around, let me know what you think and enjoy!
