Category Archives: Photo Processing Back in March of this year, my wife took a business trip to Miami, Florida and I tagged along for a break. We thought the hotels were a bit pricey when booking them but didn’t realize till we pulled up in front of the Betsy Ross Hotel that we’d picked a Spring Break week!
