How I did it
It made me
What a ride. 
How I did it: I used Pork Belly Ventures to provide support. Bring lots of sun block and a cycling cap. The morning sun will fry you on clear days. Just ride. Read how I did it…

Doctors say they practice medicine because they’re always learning. And if a doctor hurts or kills someone, they can say “I was just practicing.” I’ve learned that photography is the same thing. It’s like learning computers, or mastering gardening.
Something always humbles you. Another photographer is better. Or some scene you can’t quite capture just right and it becomes the difference between an amateur picture and a masterpiece.
So, I mark this complete, as I’ve decided that I will continue to practice. I’ll take lots of pictures. As I do, I hope my ratio of great versus crap continues to climb. Luckily, I’m in no danger of killing anyone!
I think now that I have a smart phone (Driod) it should be very easy to do. I’m gonna keep my pics on Flickr.
