Many of you know her as a superb photo blogger, but Rachel Hulin is also dynamite behind a camera. And today the image of Rachel’s I covet most is being made available on Jen Bekman’s 20×200.

Happy to say I’ve been rather busy the last two weeks. Unfortunately it’s caused me to slack a bit on the blog. I’m hoping to sit down tomorrow and give a proper rant about something. Until then here is a brand new image for your viewing pleasure.
