A Dr Seuss moment



Can you see the Ant? He and the bee seem to have something to converse about. I took this photo while visiting Sedona Arizona last year. My daughter Jocelyne suggested the large tall flowers reminded her of a Dr Seuss book.

Amy

Amy wants to be a writer. She is an observer. Something about her serious contemplation drew me to this photo.

Ritz-the baby cat




I was taking photos with studio lights and my cat decided to get in on it. He tried to give me his best Pussin Boots look (Shrek). I think he may have just wanted to be fed!

Mady and the White Horse

My Artist friend Mady and I were out last summer exploring the foothills for some reference photos to Paint. We ended up at an area just outside of Millarville where we ran into some horses beside a nearby creek. To our surprise this beautiful White Horse came out of the trees to greet us. It was somewhat magical....and there was no Knight in Shiny Armor!

Random Photo....Newport Beach California

Jimm and I drove to Newport Beach when we were in California this May. This gentleman was walking along the beach looking for Bottles. His red shirt and hat caught my eye. I think it is interesting that he had to reach past The White Picket Fence to see what is really there.

My brother Al

My eldest brother. I shot this photo when we were attending my Nephew's wedding in Tofino BC. The natural light in the room was amazing.
