So it was only 16 weeks at number one.
And his stuff is actually pretty good.
Some older, some newer links from the past few weeks…thank goodness someone has been doing some blogging.
Nutopia finally put a new post up…on themselves. No, really, an interesting article on the Nutopia forum in American Photo.
