Treasure

About 20 years ago I was given this baby photo.

As far as I know, it's the only infant picture of this child who, at the very least, was 9 months old decades and pre-decades ago.

I treasure and protect this photo and today I finally scanned it.

So, I delight in it's existence and share with the world this picture of

Me!!

The Year of the Tiger

On behalf of the entire family, Nisha wishes everyone a Happy Chinese New Year.

Now, some of you may wonder why her photo was chosen ... hmmm?

Well, I was trying my darndest to get GOOD solo pictures of the other girls but I failed.

Her photo was the simplest and I was able to do a photoshop treatment I was dying to try.

I hope you like it!

Personality Counts

I first saw him walking on the street a few blocks from where this photo was taken.

I saw only his back but he had a strut that would've put John Travolta to shame and I was interested.

So ... to my surprise and a smile on my face I found him, "singing" into a tin cup and oh, how I wished he would walk that walk.

You would have liked him. He had an exuberant and electrifying personality that would make any street performer proud.

I love the street artists and got to know some of them pretty well in Barcelona.

A street-performers life is very hard and a little kindness (like a coin or two) in their direction wouldn't be a bad idea for either you or them.

I invite you to view my flickr photo gallery of the these special people who made my life a little bit richer.

Her Eyes Are My Window

I loved her before she was born ... something I thought impossible.

Her Eyes Are My Window

Now, with her opinionated 2 1/2 years of age, her passion for life, curiosity and unconditional love she has burrowed herself so deep into my soul ... that no poem, song or book could ever capture.

Maybe my photo did.

P.S. This photo was taken in a moving van ... I was not driving.
