This is John Trower performing at the Houston Association of Magicians banquet show tonight. He is a performer in the truest sense of the word, he performed in side shows for many many years and is just wonderful. A wonderful entertainer, you just don't find many like this now. We are lucky to have him as part of our magic community here in Houston.

It's not every day you can photograph a castle. :)

It may not be quite as real as those scottish or german castles but it surely was as magical in it's own way. Especially for my little girl!

Cheers.

1. Photos makes a tool (camera), not a photographer.

2. Selecting a tool limits the possibilities.

3. Experience allows him (the tool) to less and less limit his capabilities.

4.Ability to see is given only when the observer allows ...

5. The moment of observation is the real find ...

6.Training and mastery is not amenable to learning. Learning leads to bad imitations of the original.

7. Often the result should ripen like wine. Although time is a concept of the mind, therefore, everything is speculative.

8. The meaning of all this is the process!

9. Be! Magic Donkey!

I wish I could bottle it up and carry it in my pocket (or messy purse if you want to get technical) everywhere I go. Don't you? :)

Quisiera poder meterla en una botellita y llevarla en el bolsillo (o en mi desastrosa cartera si vamos a ponernos técnicos) a todas partes. Ustedes no? :)

"Mesa Magic"

The badlands of Utah are covered with incredible and diverse mesas an sculpted canyons. Each area offers different and unique colors and perspectives. On this particular evening I flew my drone a little over 2 miles deep into this mesa side canyon. This was as far as I could go without losing contact with my drone. I turned it around and found this really amazing perspective looking back at where I had started. These yellow and blue/gray colors are completely natural and very common along this mesa.

Edit 12/18/2008: I have to say, this was a lucky shot. I didn't even know the "snow" was going to happen. I just got there at the right time and started firing away.

 

Explored Highest #42! Thanks everyone!

Magic hour at Pantai Jeram, Selangor.

I remember the special feeling I had when I took this photo.

 

You have to be there to understand why people say Venice is on of the the most beautiful cities in the world.

During my stay in Venice, it was overcast everyday. Howerer, everyday around 6pm, the magic moment, the sky became clear and the sun painted the city with light.

First day in Venice. First shot at Molo San Marco.

I can't help but fall in love with this city.

“Magic exists. Who can doubt it, when there are rainbows and wildflowers, the music of the wind and the silence of the stars, Anyone who has loved has been touched by magic. It is such a simple and such an extraordinary part of the lives we live.”

I tell YOU a tale...

The old sweet old woman, flying on her magic besom after delivering the Epiphany gifts to all of YOU will be very tired and exhaust and she deserves ...yes... to have some rest at...the "Caffè Verdi, Prescala" in Milan, Italy, having a glass of Campari (the Italian real Red passion in the world)...

a magic tale for everyone...

MAGIC NIGHT, MY FRIENDS...

CLOSE YOUR EYES AND.... BELIEVE.....

.....

BELIEVE IN PEACE AND LOVE...

FOR ALL OF YOU

FROM THE VERY DEEP OF MY HEART

IN THIS NIGHT AND FOREVER.

MAY YOUR DREAMS BECOME REALITY.

YOUR FRIEND
