When we align with Nature, Magic Happens" John Friend~ Goodbye 2010 Hello 2011

As 2010 comes to end as my eyes close and I breath in all that I have experienced. I dream of the open road, the snow capped mountains, the sweet taste of salty air from the ocean shores, hiking up a trail under the clouds but most all I long to continue to explore the destinations & people of the world....



From the Mountains of New Mexico, to the flats of Texas, to the beaches in Miami to the farms of upstate New York it has been a magical ride through out the country this year.

Life has filled my glass and I have slowly enjoyed each sip as though it was is my last. The good thing is that my glass remains full & my palate is quenched.



I have posted many kudos about the people of that I have encountered from across the states in the past. I have been touched and I have just recently learned what it means to live a charmed life...............................




No matter what life throws at you the one thing I know and understand is that you have to be like bamboo!
You have to absorb it and be very strong, your roots have to be firmly planted and you have to suck it up..


Because it will change it will get better, it is just a chapter of now, not then, not the future, it is just NOW.............It will change....





Like you I look forward to what 2011 holds....




I follow you and you follow me...........

I see you …. You see me… Eye see the continuous journey

I see you …. You see me… Eye see the continuous journey moving from place to place on assignment and off assignments, some of these faces are of painters, musicians, rodeo stars, native Americans, poets, police officers, chefs, clowns, tour guides, actors, glass blowers, shop keepers, sailors and maybe a politician or two... that I had the pleasure of meeting and working with.. From Amsterdam to Mexico from Texas to Jamaica and everyplace in the middle. Here are some of the faces that I spent hours days and sometimes weeks with to get the shot for my clients.

Mount Rushmore South Dakota!

Mount Rushmore July 2009!


More then just a road trip... More then just shooting national land marks... More then just site seeing... This road trip I have been seeking out and finding out more about me and more about the people here in the USA... It is more then I could have thought possible...




Mount Rushmore is more then just a few faces carved in Rocks.... it is spectacular..
