This past week was a definite embodiment of TBT. Except it lasted all week, not just one Thursday. Continue Reading
Home Sweet Home
It’s always good to be home, whether it’s a vacation or a business trip of just a little jaunt off somewhere for a weekend. No different for me. 🙂 It’s good to get this part of the “process” finished.
So many boxes, and memories – I found things my mom had saved from 30+ years a go – and longer. She was a little sentimental. It of course brought back a flood of memories for me too. Strange how seeing one thing can transport you back in time in a flash. Bittersweet.The desire to preserve all that’s good. And the yearning to make good when it things were not so. If only we knew then what we know now!Continue Reading
The Catalyst
My dad’s Mamiya. It was the start of many things.

It’s the Festival Thaw! Watch the beautiful ice sculptures met! But it feels good doesn’t it? Breathe in deeply – perhaps there is a wisp of spring in that air. Are you feeling it too?

Snowing again!
Brutal is a word you hear a lot to describe this winter so far. Cold, extremely cold. Windy. Extremely windy, and the SNOW…OMG sooo much snow.
You’re invited! Save the date.
T.H.E the women’s photography collective that I have been working with this past year is having its first show! TRESPASSING. The core group of 12 women are remarkable photographers and their styles and interpretations are diverse! We’ve been discussing, shooting, challenging and sharing ideas all year and this is now culminating in a display of some of our most though-provoking images.Continue Reading
An idea
So…it’s the new year. I hope your new days so far have been kind to you – and that where ever you are you are warm!!!
It seems everyone, mostly, is executing their resolutions or using this date as a new start for all sorts of things to do or improve, or try or….you know the drill! We all have ideas about what we can do to make our lives and the lives of others better. This got me thinking about ideas. Where do our ideas come from?Continue Reading
