I'm in the process of getting back into photography which will mean a new camera, more on that in a later post.

Along with the computer comes a new 4K monitor. 4K is great for media consumption, right? Your characters on your favorite show or movie really look detailed and realistic. Scenery looks wonderful.

So if you're used to seeing me online at all hours of the night, hopefully you won't be seeing me for the next 40+ days.
So, what are you giving up for Lent?
