Peggy Sirota Photography

After nearly 6 months of designing, tweaking, changing, debugging, enhancing and reviewing I’m proud to announce that PeggySirota.com is now live. Working with well known photographer Peggy Sirota, both myself and Daniel Stromborg created a minimal, full browser Flash showcase for both her stunning photo work as well has her incredible video work. The XML driven site has almost no animation which is a rarity in my work but was designed as such. The site was meant to be quick to the point and minimal on design. Over the next week or two we’ll be doing post-launch deep linking for all sections which will be a nice feature enhancement. I hope to share some of the inner workings of the site in the coming weeks. Please let me know what you think!Peggy Sirota Photography

Say Hello To Lola

Jen and I decided it was time to get a dog (again). We had a Bassett hound about 6 years ago which we gave to a friend because honestly, it was a horrible choice of pet for us and the wrong time. This time around we did our research and decided a Boxer was our best bet. Usually very smart, family centric and active, she should fit in well with everyone. It’s been 2 weeks since she joined the family and she has adjusted very well and aside from a piddle here and there, she’s doing great. Lola is a female “reverse” brindle. The classic Boxer is colored in a tan coat with a black face dubbed “fawn”. Brindles have darker streaks in their coat giving them a textured or marbleized look. A reverse is just that, a very dark coat with light brown streaks. Reverse brindles are more rare as are white Boxers. This is one of hundreds of shots I took with my new Nikon d40 which I know hardly anything about.Lola
