I seem to veer between being either very excited about things or very down on them with no grey parts in between around here. Such has it always been and always will be.
Today, the big smiley face belongs to National Geographic magazine who despite running some articles of supreme dullness, always manage to knock it out of the ballpark where photography is concerned.

Heart eventually agreed with Head but it didn't make Soul feel any better about it. Pah.
