March 2010 Desktop Calendar
March is just about here! I keep forgetting how quickly February goes by. March’s is a shot I took last April in San Juan, Puerto Rico. What I like most about this shot is that it’s very colorful and has that Old San Juan feel to it. My favorite thing is that I was able to use my Photoshop acumen to get rid of a tourist that was right in the middle of my shot. Gotta love symmetry!

Not that I need more on my plate, but it’s something that will help me keep focused on taking photographs, working in Photoshop and updating my website!
