Welcome

You have found the new CtCameraEye website. Updated from my old blog site that I had for over six years. A lot has changed over that time, and the new site here will show you many of the new places where I have been and what I have accomplished. A better blog site to keep in touch with you all, and finally, a new project that I have been working on for the past year which I will be announcing in the next few months. Stay tuned a lot of neat stuff will be happening!
