  • How To Take A Quick Look At Your Uncategorized Posts

    There are a few posts in this blog that are uncategorized. That is, I didn’t assign a category to them when I created the posts.

    Anyone with a WordPress.com blog can see which of their posts are uncategorized.

    All they have to do is go to the following URL address, where YOURBLOG is replaced with whatever the name of the blog is.

    http://YOURBLOG.wordpress.com/category/uncategorized/

    For my blog here at Light Reading, the address is http://photographworks.me/category/uncategorized/

    And here is the link to it.

    Take a look 🙂

  • Light Reading and Photograph Works

    Way back in March 2008 I put a post here on Light Reading mentioning that I had moved to my own domain at PhotographWorks.com and that I wouldn’t be updating this WordPress.com blog except perhaps occasionally.

    At that time, this name of this blog was Light Reading like it is now.

    Much later on I changed it to Photograph Works for reasons that were probably as fuzzy at the time as they appear to me to be with hindsight.

    So now, today I have changed back the name of this blog to Light Reading. The URL has remained the same throughout of course, but now I have changed the name back to what it was.

    I always liked the name Light Reading because of the double meaning. In fact, I really wonder why I changed it. It remains one of the mysteries of life.

    Well, back to the story line: After moving to a new site I started working on other projects.

    The result was that, as expected, the page rank of this blog went down (it was 5 at one time) and the page rank of Photograph Works did not go up very much.

    Recently I started posting much more on Photograph Works, and visitor numbers are going up.

    At the same time, throughout all these changes, I never abandoned this blog entirely. The reasons are again a bit of fuzzy thinking but the biggest benefit is that it has kept me in touch with the WordPress.com community.

    That’s how things have been from my side. But things have not been standing still things at WordPress.com as well: Witness the new themes that are available, including the one I am using here on Light Reading now.

  • Bluebells

    Just a quick note that I put up a couple of bluebell photos on the Quillcards blog and we’ll be putting some of the photos from the walk in the ecard collection this coming week.

  • Poladroid Upscaled Photograph

    In one of my folders I had a 500 pixels wide version of a photo that I took a while ago.

    I put it through the Polardroid application which upscaled it, made it less sharp but also made it more dreamy and soft.

    If you are not familiar with this neat little application, you can find out about Poladroid here.

    This one came out OK – an arcade in Leeds shot with the Panasonic LX3.
