SOMETIMES THINGS ARE NOT BLACK AND WHITE BUT SUBTLETIES OF GRAY; LIGHT DANCING ON THE SHEEN OF A SURFACE OR BITS OF LIGHT PEEKING FROM A SHADOW

Today is a visual day, tonight, a class discussion on contemporary versus traditional photographic concepts.

Just sharing a little morning sunshine. This is my You-You who happens to be the smallest dog I've ever had but she follows in Kramer's footsteps when it comes to smarts, as a matter of fact, he's learning to love her too! Don't ya just love the ears?! This was a while ago so she has grown into her ears.

Future's Past

Summer is on the horizon and thoughts wander to my favorite, a road trip...but alas those are no longer available since summer school and the history of photography fills up. Oh well, I can remember...most of them anyway. 1 dream trip before I get too old is to go up the western coast to Canada one more time to see how much it's changed in 30+ years.

Day 3
I've stumbled my way onto Julie and Vicki's blogs and perused the pictures of all the wonderful times with the children and grandchildren; even found a link to Summer Melody which then reminded me of Amber Love and memories of earlier times full of surprise and promise for us all. In the beautiful faces of all those children I see the same promises that filled our young hearts; places of new discoveries to bring new adventures and be new people, new people to befriend and maybe love for a lifetime, sweet innocence that has not been channeled into selfishness but can yet believe in selflessness, caring for one another. Does that fresh smile reflect a heart that will teach us to be better; not apologize for a loving innocence that delights in the world and its people? I cherish that innocence. But, for now its off to my class of 20 somethings, hoping to still see that spark in a face.

Day 2 of a new techno=geek

Okay, so after a couple of hours, I finally found my blog again (probably didn't know it was missing) and apparently the folks on my list of recipients got it! So, good Monday morning and I hope all is well as you begin a new week. Here in California we are going to be settling for what appears to be more typical June weather...cloudy mornings with some sun sneaking through in the afternoon. That was for the Utah people.
