Gallery: Boston with the D90

Posted on January 27th, 2009.

I took advantage of the very sunny weekend and went out with my new Nikon D90. I went along the Charles River in Cambridge to take pictures of the Boston skyline. I only have a 50mm lens, so the city shots were quite wide (as you can see below). I walked to the Longfellow Bridge and got some great detail shots of the stonework and rusty underside of the bridge. More to come!

The Nikon D90

Nikon D09

In August of 2007 I decided to purchase a small, lightweight point-and-shoot digital camera.

I also learned how to eat my words (they just need a little salt), and recently decided it was time I make a digital SLR my primary instrument.

Google Analytics on RedBubble

Posted on December 14th, 2008.

I’ve been using RedBubble since October of this year to sell some of my photographs. It’s a great site, with a thriving, fun artist community. The site is still relatively young, and is missing a few features that would be very helpful to those trying to sell their works. One such feature is a tracking system, like Google Analytics, which would help artists better target communicaitions and advertising campaigns. At this point RedBubble does not offer Google Analytics support, but there is a way to pass limited information along to Google Analytics for tracking purposes.
