Can't sleep at 3:50

Besides having various bad dreams about Dante catastrophes and the very real catastrophe of losing Lulu for most of the afternoon today it was hectic in other ways. I shot two jobs one after the other and they overlapped a bit. A guy named Manny finally called around 5 to ask if I'd lost a dog. Thank god he wasn't someone who just decided it would be funny to call the guy who'd posted fliers all over 14th street that afternoon. He showed up an hour later with his wife and kid (who'd grown attached to Lulu in the few hours they had her) who was crying and wouldn't take the $100 I tried to give him. I would have shoved it in his pocket but I got the sense that it would have insulted him. So I thanked him for the 15th time and gave him one of the Lost Dog fliers I'd plastered all over the East Village.
I just discovered the A Photo Editor Blog which has almost immediately become my favorite piece of reading material. It was mentioned on the daily digest I get from Editorial Photo . I think his (her?) link to Sye Williams' film is one of the most brilliant pieces of marketing I've ever seen by Adobe or any other company. Not only are you looking at Adobe's logo the whole time your watching the video (attention You Tube, maybe don't have commercials in front of a short, just superimposed somewhere in the frame) (nice work Sye) but at the end the thing dissolves into a button that takes you right to Adobe's Lightroom site, which of course I clicked because I've been so curious about Lightroom for so long. Even better (!) there's a link for a free trial! I've been hoping to try out Lightroom since I heard about it but had never seen a trial version available. I'm waiting until I have a few days to devote to working with the program before I download it. So I guess I'll never get to download it. ha.
