Well hello to everyone who continues to read my blog. I’m always surprised when I look at my logs and discover I actually have subscribers. :)
Anyway, I wanted to let you know I have not abandoned this blog… my whole kimotay.com presence is being redesigned as I realise I have far too many projects going on, so it’s going to be restructured as a visual workspace that jumps into each individual project.
First on the list is a Music Photography focused site that I just launched, to target the audience that searches for those photos, mainly, the bands and musicians of Ireland. You can find it here:
My new role as official shooter for A.M.P. has made most of my time now spent in the music arena documenting the bands and musicians of the area, so I’ve been posting there with great frequency.
Look for the new kimotay.com coming soon… :)

Rarely do I come across something that completely surprises me, and even moves me to my core.
Upon surfing around today, i came across this blog entry from Chris Higgins, about a site he’d found that apparently, he was as moved by as I was… a collection of polaroids, taken once a day from 1979 to 1997. There are a few photo a day projects floating around on the net, but this one is quite remarkable not only for its duration, but also for its outcome. It begins during the photographer’s days in college, and ends after his tragic battle with cancer.
The Man Behind the Photos…
At first his identity was unknown, but after a little digging by the blogger, he discovered the site was the counterpart to an exhibit being prepared in New York. His work is now quickly sweeping across the internet and the impact its leaving is huge.
Take a Look
I don’t often pass along things I find on the internet, but I found this so remarkable, I couldn’t keep it to myself. Please take a look, it’s unbelievable.

As I got a request in my blog, and a few others by email, I’ll go ahead and post the joke…
* * *
What does a single yellow line on the side of a road mean?
No Parking.
What does a double yellow line mean?
No Parking.
So why are there 2 yellow lines?
“To be sure, to be sure..”
…I told you you wouldn’t get it. :)

Since I’m launching this blog now, I figured I ought to do the obligatory introduction post so that those of you who don’t know me can get a quick idea what to expect. Quite a few of you (bless your little souls) have been frequenting my photoblog, Captures Light, and wondering when I was going to breakout of the static index page and actually create a real blog… Well, here ya go!! After working on the design for quite a few months, now that it’s up, I realise how dark it is… That must have been how I was feeling at the time I guess. *grin*
Just as a brief overview for those who don’t know me… I’m a programmer, photographer, costumer, musician and mother/wife, and I’ll say this now, all parts of me share my brain equally. Therefore, expect to find an eclectic mix of content in this blog, from the latest CSS trend I’m dabbling in, to recent photographic discoveries, to musing on the latest 1400th century portrait gown I hope to recreate.
To the right, you can find a snippet of the latest entry from my photoblog, as the photography usually winds up taking priority one in my spare time, mostly due to my wonderful family, and the plethora of really good musicians I am lucky enough call friends.
That’s all for now. Say hi to the kids for me!
OH!!! I’m aware that the styling is not completely massaged yet for IE, particularly IE6, so my apologies to all IE6 users out there. I promise to sort it soon.
