One of the best bits of advice I have read about keeping your sanity while sitting at home while under a Shelter-In-Place, or similar, order is to make a schedule for your day and finish all of the projects you never seem to have time to do. One of the projects I keep not getting […]

Never a Dull Moment
I was photographing a few very specific moments at the opening ceremonies of the Rugby World Cup Sevens for a regular client of mine who was the major sponsor of the event. As normally happens there is a bit of time between each thing I need to photograph, so I try to look for something […]
Just Another Day on Haight Street
This dog sure caught my attention, his owner (or guardian if you prefer) put the doll hands on his collar. You, know, because he could, I suppose. A lot of people were interested in the baby doll collar, I told the guy he had a potential business plan and should go on Shark Tank or […]
Hey, look, my kids have graduated from high school!
Can you see them? They are wearing the red (or is it crimson? scarlet? auburn? bright maroon? carmine? carnelian? cinnabar? or if you prefer RGB r251 g57 b22, or HEX color codes, fa4727 or fe3313 or fe2d16 depending on where I place the color picker, isn’t color theory fun!)

Eggmojis
My daughter made these Easter Eggs or Eggmojis. I think they are great. Sometimes it is best for me to just be quiet and let the work of others shine. So, Aurelia, this post is where I tell you how awesome you are and how proud I am that you are my daughter. I especially […]
How to be a prom parent Vol. 2
Sorry kids I could not resist. Good thing is no one looks at the Internet and as you said no one under 40 looks at blogs so you are safe from anyone seeing this.
An unstructured day
“Do I contradict myself? Very well, then I contradict myself, I am large, I contain multitudes” My high school Literature teacher would be so happy I finally understand what Walt Whitman was saying, well not exactly, I mean I sort of understand it, but there are so many ways to read the quote. Now that I think of it I have no idea what the quote is about. Sorry Mr. Ellis, my Lit teacher Newbury Park High School, in some long distant faded memory.
