HEROES

I met a wonderful woman today, her name is Martha.

Martha came to my rescue. Martha is truly my “hero of the day”!

One of my errands included a stop at the Michael’s Store in Goleta, CA. I was fortunate enough to park directly in front of the store proper, which has a beautiful […]

Sometimes you have to stop and smell the roses !

You already know I take my camera with me everywhere I go, and you know that I photograph some of the most ordinary things in life ~ things that most of us overlook.

Today is no exception.

It isn’t roses that I stopped to smell, […]

COME SIT WITH ME FOR A SPELL ~

A change of pace today. This one is an invitation to sit and relax and stay a while in one place, to separate yourself from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

A most of you know, I photograph a lot of the everyday life things and […]

PHOTO OF THE DAY – August 7th

Not much to say about today’s photo except that I am so glad I bring my camera with me everywhere I go.

People must think I am weird though, when I stop the car along the side of the road (safely), get out and photograph flowers or mailboxes or shadows – well, you get the […]

PHOTO OF THE DAY – August 6th

Every where I go there are surprises. Some make me smile, some trigger sadness, some create wonder and amazement, some evoke curiosity.

Today’s image is a reminder – to keep in touch – sorta like the old AT&T ad, “reach out and touch someone you love”. It reminds me of the note cards I try […]

PHOTO OF THE DAY – August 4th

I met with Art of Wedding 64 at his office away from the office today – the Jefferson Campus of Brooks Institute – my old stomping grounds.

This image was taken from the edge of the parking lot over a 6 foot chain link fence. Which, by the way, is way taller than I am. […]

Sometimes we are so blessed! Today is a special day!

The desk in my home office faces a second story balcony with sliding glass doors. As I work on editing images, creating albums and planning strategies for advertising and marketing, I am able to look out the window or stop long enough for a bit […]

PHOTO OF THE DAY – August 2nd

A simple post today. And a single image. These were a bouquet of flowers on the table of a home I went to visit during the day.

We were actually testing my new camera, the Canon 5D Mark II. This image was shot at ISO 800, f/4.5 at 1/15th sec. As you can see, even […]
