Photos for 2010
I've been neglecting DixPix lately, partly due to time constraints, and partly because it's just too easy to slap a photo on Facebook. ...But then not everybody can see them. So, here's a compromise — I'll try to put photos here when something looks good to me and hope to fill in bigger trips and events with more pictures when I have time.
As always, suggestions are welcome - just send me an
email.
