This image is actually of my daughter playing her guitar (believe it or not).  After a fairly basic kaleidoscope treatment, this is the result. And here's the original photo.  Granted, the treatment has limited application, but it was fun, I learned some new shortcuts and I got to look at one of my favorite photo subjects the whole time. Here is the "quit-lovers" version of the same pattern repeated.  Check out the tutorial and see what you come up with!  http://digital-photography-school.com/how-to-create-kaleidoscope-patterns-from-your-photos

This logo was created for an organization that seeks to break down racial, cultural, economic and social barriers.  They build bridges between individuals, agencies and ministries, and work to unify efforts to eliminate poverty and violence in urban communities.  Their website is http://www.projecturge.org/home.html

This is a logo I created recently for a suicide awareness and prevention organization.  Check out their website, which is under ongoing construction by one of their volunteers.  http://www.overcomingthedarkness.com/index.html

I recently had a chance to photograph a golf tournament held in the area. Yes, I did eventually capture the actual game, to some degree.  But before that I enjoyed a front row seat at a breathtaking sunrise.  Who KNEW?  I'm a late sleeper and only get to see the sun high overhead or setting in the west... I took this shot before I even arrived at the course.  I'm not a golfer, but I DO love golfing.  

I know for sure this photo does not capture the moment.  I took this one last fall.  The color was so brilliant just before sunset I thought for sure the whole landscape would burst into flames before my eyes.

Well, not actual chestnuts...  But it doesn't matter.  A roaring fire has always been my medicine of choice for sanity and peace.   These both kept me warm inside and out for a looong time...

Chloe doesn't often get center stage... but this day was different - almost makes you want to take your own leisurely sunbath doesn't it?
