Less But Better

I’ve been enjoying reading Greg McKeown‘s new book “Essentialism” – and, after listening to the beginning, put together this image suitable for desktop or screen saver use. It’s a shot made in the kitchen at the James Johnston House in Half Moon Bay – and was one that seemed to focus on the essential!

Here’s a link to Greg’s book and perhaps an easier to download version of my image on Flickr.

Access to Each Other

Having Fun - New York - 2014

I love this quote by Clay Shirky:

We have greatly overestimated the value of access to information and greatly underestimated the value of access to each other.

Tina Roth Eisenberg cited this quote in her talk – “Sharing my 5 Personal Rules” – very much worth watching.

Gratitude

Eclipse - Hyatt Regency Embarcadero - 2014

Just finished up a phone call with an old friend of mine. He ended by asking “Is there anything I can do to help you?”

What a delight! It’s the perfect question, isn’t it?!

This image is of the Eclipse sculpture in the lobby of the Hyatt Regency Embarcadero in San Francisco – a favorite spot of me and my photo buddy Doug Kaye. This version was captured using my Fujifilm X-E2 – a simply wonderful “mirrorless” camera that take beautiful images.
