In jazz, each instrument and rhythm needs to be in sync — but that doesn’t happen without a lot of practice and experimentation behind the scenes. Even the most talented improvisers wouldn’t roll out a brand new number without having rehearsed it beforehand. Sound familiar? Your website isn’t all that different from a jazz band — various elements (content, images, ...
In early April, we experienced an unexpected suspension of our Twitter API access. This access is what powers Jetpack Social, which in turn helps you automatically share your blog posts to Twitter. Though the service was restored that same day, it turns out that there were bigger changes looming on the horizon. Twitter recently notified Automattic that it was dramatically ...

You really should! Finally after months of procrastinating, I finally decided I needed something more photography-savvy to display my photos, so moved onto SmugMug (they are awesome!) and created my own site. However, I have my own TLD, www.sach.photography which is what I’ve used to redirect to SmugMug. Note that there’s no ‘.com’ as ‘photography’ is now a TLD. So ...

Epic Ride Couple of weeks ago I visited San Diego for a brief vacation. On one day I went to the San Diego Zoo, which had rather impressive reviews everywhere but was a bit disappointed as it was nowhere near good as they claimed to be. The next day, we headed for the SeaWorld San Diego, and this time I ...

Mind bending Bend In Sri Lanka there’s a place called ‘The 18 Bends’ and it is exactly that; the hillside roads has 18 mind bending… bends. And this is one of them, the 2nd or the 3rd, exactly which I’m not sure.Filed under: Nature, Outdoor Tagged: Bend, Landscape, Mountains, Sri Lanka

Lost in Love This photo took about a month of planning, a few missed opportunities and a whole lot of tries, yet it was all worth it! Absolutely and totally! Let me tell you the back story; I’ve been living in Japan for 7 years now, and for anyone who’s been here that long the Shibuya crossing is something special. ...

Last Thursday afternoon, I crossed off another item off my bucket list; I always wanted to go see Sumo, but for one reason or another I somehow never got around to do it. Now with only few days left here, I was running the risk of never doing it, but then my good friend Aurora intervened and took me to ...

Ecstasy My friend Aurora has an obsession with pink. Then, if you’re a photographer and lived long enough in Japan, you develop this fascination with Mt. Fuji. So when we went to the Fuji Shibazakura Matsuri, near Lake Kawaguchiko, Japan, Aurora could hardly contain herself. As you can clearly see!Filed under: Flowers, Nature, Outdoor, People, Spring Tagged: Cool Japan, Flowers, ...

Yokohama, Japan I probably have mentioned this quite a few times, but let me say it again; Yokohama is one of my most favorite places in Japan to hangout. There’s a lively buzz around any time of the day and night lights are simply breathtaking. So I hardly ever miss an opportunity to go there, with or without a camera. ...
