Woot! Stock! Yes, I was there, LoadingReadyRun was there, many other cool people were there! For my full-on recounting of this awesome experience, see my W00tstock article posted on the fabulous Geek Girl on the Street blog.
Ok so yeah, this is a crafting blog, and no, I don’t plan to use it for a bunch of other random crap from my life. That’s what Twitter is for. But W00tstock is neither random nor crap, and it’s my blog damnit, so I’ll do what I want with it! Just consider this one of a few occasional bonus posts. Besides which, photography falls under the category of the arts, and we all know the peas-in-a-pod aspect of “arts and crafts.” So there, I’ve linked it back to crafts.
And now, on to the photos.
Here is what I believe to be the very best photo I took all weekend.

/ September 27, 2024I’ve always loved taking photos, whether it’s landscapes or special moments with friends. Recently, I wanted to share my travel pictures on Instagram. I learned that creating a panorama could showcase the beautiful views I captured. I found useful tips on how to post a panorama on Instagram at https://skylum.com/blog/how-to-post-a-panorama-on-instagram It made sharing my experiences even more exciting!
