		<title>The now</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The weather so far has been&#8230; interesting. It&#8217;s not often freezing cold, windy and rainy during the day, oh no. Our camp is wholly setup and now that the ground has dried out I&#8217;m getting to work on bringing you pictures. Here so far you see but a teaser: come back soon for more.

		<title>The Wedding, Fireworks and Tornadoes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Simon and Julia exchange rings at their wedding in Venice. See the teaser gallery here. Saturday morning I rose from the couch: wedding preparations were soon to descend upon the living room. It&#8217;s a hilarious contrast between men&#8217;s and women&#8217;s styles of getting ready: The women are a flurry of chaos, with mirrors, exploded makeup [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Prague Castle across the river Vltava &#8212; click to see the Prague gallery I&#8217;ve made it from Prague to Venice. Bags packed, I took off a little after 9 Wednesday morning to get myself to Rome by air and then to Venice by rail.

		<description><![CDATA[I depart for Europe in 17 hours! I&#8217;ve been hired to shoot a wedding in Venice, and am doing a quick stop in Prague first (to see the Sedlec Ossuary at Kutná Hora) Where else should I go?

		<title>Lightning in a Bottle does not respect artists</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As the Do Lab&#8217;s Lightning in a Bottle enters full promotional swing, I&#8217;ve received something of a rude shock: friend and fellow picture-taker (and digital rights advocate) Robert Kaye sends me a note. &#8220;Did they ask you permission to use your photos?&#8221; It turns out that the announcement the Do Lab made regarding tickets being [...]]]></description>
