Merry Christmas


A couple of days before Christmas and all through the house not a creature is moving except my wireless mouse.


It moves is circles and squares concentrically around the little curly hairs of Santa's beard as I crop and cut to bring out his shock as the lovely Amanda whispers her list in his ear.


What shock what joy to know he is just a little boy. Confounded by beauty as we all once were, it is he has a gift he wants to open to soon this night.
Love all you folks, click on the title of this post to see what is garnering my attention this and into the New Year.

The more things change the more they stay the same.


So it is December again and this was my second attempt at a picture a day blog. Well this year I didn't post as many as I did last year and I must say it was not so much of a priority as it was in 2006.


In many ways I have stopped looking for words of others to validate my work or give me my self worth. Well the latter I cesed doing years ago with the help of therphy and some loving friends. LOL. Took 4 years though.


What I have found is many people have varried opinions as to what makes a good image or what makes a good image great. I have heard from many people who love to give their opinions and thrive on the reactions fueled by their said opinions. Honestly, I am tired of the people who live in front of their computers to spew stupidity. Oh you know who you are, the way you know is their posts are not anywhere on my blogs.


Some people go on and on and when you look at their portfolios online (if they have one) you see they can talk a good game but couldn't take a good picture if you setup the lights, camera, hired a model for them, did the makeup and put the camera on a tripod and all they had to do was push a button. So why would I care what they say?


EVERYONE who has commented on my images on this and my 2006 blog I consider a friend and you are not one of the people I speak of here. You have all supported me in my work and have even shown true caring and concern when I didn't post for a while. Thank You all.


I thought I would post an image for everyone here tonight which would inspire you to never think you can't take a picture again.

After the fire...where do you go?


There was a fire tonight in an apartment near me. These people were living in adjoining apartments, they can't go home tonight. Sad, they will be able to get back in soon but what do they do in the mean time?
