Williamsport Winter Photo Shoot
I had a little photo shoot in Williamsport tonight. The conditions were perfect. Sure, I felt like a nerd carrying around a tripod downtown. But it was worth it for some of these shots. This was the first real shoot with the new D600. …

By My Own Strength
I've been thinking a lot about the message I heard in church on Sunday. Pastor Mike continued his messages through Galatians. This week was on Galatians 5:7-15.

And while not one of the twelve disciples himself, Mark offers some valuable insight into the life of Christ including this little gem of a passage, recorded only in the gospel of Mark. After the parable of the sower and the telling of its meaning to his disciples, Jesus goes on to further explain what the kingdom of God is like. 26 He also said, “This is what the kingdom of God is like. A man scatters seed on the ground. 27 Night and day, whether he sleeps or gets up, the seed sprouts and grows, though he does not know how. 28 All by itself the soil produces grain—first the stalk, then …
