HAPPY Father's Day

Photo 362 - 364: Today is Father's Day, and Candice, Guy and I went to Philly to spend the day wandering around the Italian Market getting ribs (and Yak steak), smelling the flowers and getting foot massages. Well, Candice and Guy did... I squirmed in pain just looking at them. Ugh... too much pain, too much pain.

I hope all the great dads out there have a fantastic day, especially Guy, who deserves all the love in the world for being such an amazing dad to me and Candice!

Looking Back to NOLA

Photo 301 - 303: Here are a few more shots from my NOLA visit. One thing is for certain, I have to go buy a gorilla tripod for my mini trips. That would have helped me out a lot during my last vacation. I even looked at them at B&H Photo (any photographer's gear mecca), but didn't buy one... don't as me why.

Nothing much else to report today, but that I'm planning on some "sexier" photos soon i.e. NYC at night, perhaps a model shoot or even some Miami at night photographs. Now THAT'S a great idea... For now, take a look back at what New Orleans has to offer -- a lot of history.

White Flower

Photo 76: I'm sensing a trend, but I had to capture this stunning white flower. Love the contrast with the grey stones and the green leaves.

Waterlily Definitions

Photo 52: Monet may have painted stunning waterlilies, but I like to photograph them. There is something so calm about a single waterlily surrounded by its dark green pads. I had another beautiful shot of a waterlily from last year, but I lost that one when my hard drive crashed last December. Which reminds me, I have to back up my computer...

As a sidenote, I learned something new today. Did you know that lily pads is Military slang for cooperative security location installations, a military term for a scaled down Military facility with little or no personell presence which contains pre-positioned equipment and often serve as a staging ground for Special Forces and Intelligence operations. Betcha didn't know that, huh? lol
