Definitely NOT your typical website

With my head all too often in the clouds, and Albert originally from well beyond the clouds, the Internet seemed the perfect waypoint for sharing our mutual hobbies - photography, writing, and cooking - with family and friends. 

Neither Albert nor I will ever request your personal information. No account or credit card needed. Likewise we refuse to include, or provide links to annoying advertisements or sales pitches on this websites. Not being critical of those bloggers who do - well, maybe just a little - but that is just not our thing. This website wasn't developed as a passive income generator. It was simply developed so that this self-taught techno geek can hopefully slow down the aging process of his gray matter just a tiny bit.

Photography

Much like music, photography has a wide range of genres. In fact, the Adobe website provides an overview of twenty-eight different photography styles. Such as nature, landscape, portrait, fashion, wedding, food, still life, and the list goes on. These days, my favorite photography genres are close-up and macro, as well as tabletop and astrophotography. 

Writing

Over the past twenty years or so, I have been a novice writer. Most assuredly, Stephen King, Agatha Christie, and John Grisham were not moved by the tiny ripple created when I dipped my toes into the shallow end of the writer's pool. Typically my stories are no more than a page or two in length and provide a therapeutic outlet for whatever is swimming about my head at the time. Should you wonder, did I really write this stuff? Yes, yes I did. One might assume that AI would have been far more eloquent. Maybe, maybe not.

Cooking

Like most households, a collection of must-have cookbooks sits quietly, collecting dust, on a bookshelf or two in our house. These days, more often than not, the Internet is typically the first answer when the question is: "How do you make...?" Contained herein are tweaked versions of tried and tested recipes from all over the internet, thus providing a one-stop-site for all our favorite dishes.
