When we visited Cuyahoga Valley National Park in September 2013 for Steam in the Valley, the walkway to go down and view Brandywine Falls was closed. So, I couldn't get much in the way of photos.

I hadn't ever been there before and I haven't made it back yet. I need to do so.

These flowers were growing nearby and looked nice together.

When everything else disappoints or becomes confusing, at least there's music.

" When I Fall In Love

Edward Heyman / Victor Young

Interpretation: Nat King Cole - 1957

When I fall in love

It will be forever

Or I'll never fall in love

In a restless world like this is

Love is ended before it's begun

And too many moon light kisses

Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun

When I give my heart

It will be completely

Or I'll never give my heart

And the moment

I can feel that

You feel that way too

Is when I fall in love with you

And the moment

I can feel that

You feel that way too

Is when I fall in love with you"

I'd like you to put a little something in his vodka.

Further announcements push us further from any sign of normality the first lockdown meant sharing with people who don’t usually live with me that halted all of this. Things started to shift and allow me time to be me (including work when I know Zoom is not on my schedule) although not enough time for make up nails etc. Opportunities are re appearing as per fully days and hopefully have a few ideas of things old and new for the coming months unless of course the virus has other ideas. Stay well💋

Daybreak at the wildlife refuge

When I rise from my bed

and walk in the cold frost

my heart lifts and I dream

dawns would never end

I hope... That's the end

It's always a good night for photos when you find your best friend dead in a car park.

Wasn't too sure wether I liked this or not, but thought I might as well put it up as it's not often you find a dead body. What do you think, Keep it or loose it?

When the sidewalk becomes an art gallery and a mythical guardian watches everyone walk by.

When I see nice old cars when working I try to get my camera and photograph them. I hope everyone has a great Sunday. :D

the forest floor is strewn with still lifes just waiting to be noticed and photographed.

seen on this day two years ago when autumnal weather had arrived on schedule bringing rain and wind and colour.

We might get rain this Friday, fingers crossed.

there is no slow lingering death but rather a collapse and swift demise to oblivion.

Sometimes it can feel like the weather mirrors your life. On this morning I was a day away from finding out the sex of our child, so seeing those pink clouds light up was a powerful moment. In early 2016 my first chance for dedicated photography as an approaching storm lined up with sunrise. This spectacular phenomena occurs when tule fog breaches the Diablo foothills and streams through the Valley.

Today is the day the reality that she will never be able to experience this world. So I dedicate this to my daughter. My daughter who never had a chance, who I will never get to see. :( I love you so much my heart bleeds

When it started to get dusky, Manna realized that she had been there in the woods many hours again and the Aunties must have been very worried again. Rollo ushered her home and this time he took a different route. There was an old stone bridge in the middle of the forest and they decided to make it their secret meeting place, whenever Manna would need a friend she could come there and sooner or later Rollo would show up.

I had the pleasure of hosting David Talley and Triston Lane at my house in San Diego this weekend. I took them to some of my favorite photo beaches down here for some unforgettable adventures. All in all there was little sleeping and a lot of exploring.

This particular photo day was a little hectic...amazingly we managed to squeeze in three separately directed shoots in the span of 30 minutes before the sun completely disappeared. We dragged about 30 lbs of gear and props down a cliff to get to the beach to boot.

I was the last to shoot my photo, but I'm happy it ended up that way. I had about 10 minutes to light candles and shoot before I ran out of light. We hiked back up the cliff, exhausted and sweaty, in near darkness. It was so worth it. :)

I tried filling in some colors of my own, trying to keep the loose style. The result is not something I would have ever thought of painting - but it is colorful!

When did it become alright to leave burn marks all over the Hoe ?

Can't people prepare a picnic anymore ?

"It can happen any moment

Without reason or rhyme

It might be right around the corner

Or it'll come up from behind

A picture that I thought would fade

I still clearly see

When the thought of you

Catches up with me....."

Don't get me wrong, I love modern furniture, but something about this setting reminded me of the simple life of yesterday. Can you imagine sitting in one of these chairs, sipping a cup of home brewed coffee (not Starbucks), without no technology, just starring out the windows.

When I saw my friend's tattoo I exclaimed about not knowing she was a Frank Turner fan. Apparently she isn't and didn't know anything about the song he sings, Worse Things Happen At Sea.

Also, does anyone have any tips for shooting in really harsh sunlight? I never get the results I want unless I'm shooting into the sun and getting some nice flare. Mmm, flare.

When you're itching for a rainy day for rainy day photography, naturally, you get 7 days of sun and heat. But alas, we drip anyway.

when I get back from school My puppy moxie ALWAYS has something in her mouth, whether its her favorite blanket or a chewed up wrapper shes not supposed to have, she has to have something to bite, so when this happened the first thing I did was grab my camera, and then fill up her water bowl! XD

Our first activity in Tokyo was a date with an old friend from Thailand, Miss Yu. She was someone that I regularly used to go shopping with back in Bangkok as she was friends with my next-door neighbour. Miss Yu moved back to Tokyo during Covid. It was great to see her again and she helped us with the sushi and beer menu of this restaurant in Shimbashi
