As someone who enjoys photography it’s really nice to have a place to just view photos from photographers whose work you like.

We got some very rare snow today. Apparently haven’t seen snow like this since they started keeping records. A little over two years ago we had set a record for March.
This is why Portlanders go nuts when we get a warm sunny day in spring π

Over the last week I framed and installed a window in the shed in our yard.
As part of this project, I also started using a “real” video editor. I’ve edited videos in the past using iMovie, but this was quite different, as expected, and it was fun to pick up a lot of the beginner level skills in the process.
The editor I used was DaVinci Resolve, mostly because it has a version available for free and it is a very capable app for video editing on the Mac.
I watched a YouTube video to learn how to get going and to get familiar with the interface. Then I would search when I wanted to figure out how to do something specific as I went along e.g. extracting a frame to use as a thumbnail.
Update: 18th May, 2022.
A couple of weeks ago I finally got around to putting a frame on the window.
The other window on the shed has angled ends on the top piece, so I measured and mirrored them on the top piece of this one. I cut it on the table saw as shown in the photo below.
And here’s a photo of the window with the frame.
Maybe next month I’ll get around to painting itβ¦

Had a great time at Micro camp yesterday and today. Great talks that had me thinking about how I can apply some of that wisdom and knowledge to my own blogging and app development journey. Thank you all!

Contemplating making Mimi Uploader a free app, supported with ads. I would only do this in a way that those who bought it never see ads. All new users would see ads. I may still keep the Tip Jar.
What do you think of this potential change? Would love to hear from people who use it and those who may use it in the future.

I wish digital maps made this scale interactive. One ought to be able to stretch, shrink, rotate, and pan it anywhere on the map to actually be useful instead of just being static in a corner like on a paper map.
