Welcome to our blog

Hi,

My name is Terence, and I am the co-founder and tech support person for a small nature photography company called City Escapes Nature Photography (http://www.cityescapesphotography.com/ ). My wife, Jodi, and I started this company about two years ago as a way to share some of the wonder and awe we feel toward nature with others, and to bring a bit of nature into people’s homes.

It has taken a while for us to go from agreeing to the idea of starting the business, to getting the web-based storefront running, which happened in 2007. We are still learning a lot about all aspects of the business. I am currently fixated on improving our Google page ranking, while Jodi continues to learn more about the capabilities of her new camera and the subtle nuances of various framing techniques.

Over the past year, we have used the internet to support our research in a wide variety of ways. We have found much useful information, but often we needed to pull things together from a variety of sources to come up with the picture that we needed (pun intended J ).

This blog is our way of providing something back to the broader community. We will be posting lessons learned, product reviews, and general observations about a variety of things we have found important. Hopefully, this will provide you at least part of the information you need to make informed choices.

Terence
