The new semester started this past week, and I’m teaching one section of philosophy to juniors and seniors. There are eleven students in my class. Each of them is thoughtful and bright - they really are. And their sharp minds keep me on my toes.
The basic “rules” of the class are: 1) Think. 2) Think again.
The idea is to speak thoughtfully and critically. (”Critical” - to help bring clarity to what is being discussed.)
In other news, I am spending a lot of time on my photoblog and looking at others. This past week I’ve worked on the templates and getting the presentation in order. Also, I’m trying to take and post one quality photo a day. I hope that I’m able to do it. That means keeping my camera with me.
Of note, here are some photoblogs that I like:
- Frame Not Included: Three guys in Oslo post on this blog. I like it because they capture everyday life. That’s my intention on my photoblog.
- Kevin Crafts: Light and Dark Photography. Kevin is just good. Not only is he a good photographer, but he contributes a lot of technical “know-how” to the photoblogging community by creating add-ons for PixelPost.
- Manuel Guerzoni takes daily photos in San Francisco - it’s a masterful photoblog.

I am pleased to announce the launch of my genuine photoblog: Photoblog: Roland Allen - A Californian With a Couple of Canons.
It is located at: photoblog.rolandallen.com. The blog uses open-source software PixelPost and is hosted by the non-profit hosting company, Vesana.
I’ve posted three photos taken over the past two days here in Palm Desert. I hope to post fresh photos regularly.
