Sometimes going back to read an older post will really transport you to that time and place. So for that reason alone I wish I posted more and with more detail/pictures. Thanks for the encouragement I wish I posted more just so I can go back later and read for myself. Sometimes going back to read an older post will really transport you to that time and place.

Whenever I broach a new topic for my class, e.g. one of shooting silhouettes, I get one of my students to shoot the behind-the-scenes type of pictures showing the classroom or the surroundings as a whole. I'm experimenting with a photoshop plug-in called Sketch to render those pictures into pencil sketches. Then I get the actual pictures from my students and use them on the post. I didn't use the blog this way previously because I felt some students might feel they can "ditch" class and still read up on what they miss if I did a really good job on the post on my blog. In the end, I told myself, my blog is online to share what I know. If these students don't care enough to come to class, it's their lost. I find lots of inspiration on your blog. Thanks for your great ideas. Hi Scott,
