Desert Rose
Days are too short. Fabulous Fridays are even shorter; I’ll be very lucky even to make one photograph today. I woke up hoping to shoot, but it was raining! I felt frustrated, which I think many can relate to when plans don't go as hoped. Just in time, I dashed outside to photograph a...
Spotlight On An Ordinary Day
There’s nothing quite like volunteer work, is there? Today I sat/lay for a student while she learned how to apply eyelash extensions! I woke up to the pitter-patter of raindrops on the bedroom window this morning. This did not augur well, but I manned up and decided to embrace the day!...
Going Corporate - Portraiture
“Wisdom to know what to do with what I know” was what I had to do with this commission. The client has the law on their side, the gift of the gab, and the confidence to enforce all three! ---oOo--- This is what I did: Sent a missive by email to all members of the staff regarding...

Funny Fern First
It’s a sloshy Saturday and a Mission Impossible. Abort! a voice screams. But procrastination is the thief of time. That’s a fact. Mondays are a good day to start dieting, fasting, or a new project, or turn over a new leaf. That’s if you toe the line, not when you zig when everyone else zags. ...
A Photographic Walk
My photographic walk day was a walk in the park, a delightful day spent photographing some of the people I encounter in my daily life. As Bruce Gilden says, "I love the people I photograph. I mean, they're my friends. I've never met most of them, or I don't know them at all, yet through my...
