So…what is a Blog anyway?
As defined by Wikipedia:
A blog is a type of website, usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. Entries are commonly displayed in reverse-chronological order. “Blog” can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.
Many blogs provide commentary or news on a particular subject; others function as more personal online diaries. A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, Web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important part of many blogs.

Last but not least, we are excited to introduce Matt McAnaw. Matt is a great friend but also one of the finest photographers we have ever had the privilege to work with. One of the qualities that makes his work so impressive is his artistic vision. His gallery work speaks for itself but what really sells Matt’s talent is his ability to capture photojournalistic and commercial subjects with the same beauty and finesse as his fine art photography. In other words, anyone who can squeeze beauty out of a piece of broccoli deserves major respect!
