However you celebrate the holidays, I hope they are happy for you. These are tough times. We need to surround ourselves with love and hope. I wish all of you the best. Keep making art!

This is technically a terribly flawed photograph. Iconic butte "The Pedernal" - oft painted by Georgia O'Keeffe - at the worst time of day. I couldn't even see what I was capturing! But I sure do love it! #photography #cerropedernal #thepedernal #newmexico

It's Sunday! Are you doing anything fun? From a trip to the Salton Sea several years ago, here is a photo of a typewriter. On a piano. Behind a broken windshield. #blueskyphotographers #streetphotography #vintage

It's Caturday! JuJuBe and Josie bring so much joy. Each goofy in their own ways, each wears their tuxedo in a different style. #caturday #tuxedocats #blackandwhite

Photographing a shriveled up beet against a black background with gray stains....and voila! "The Smoking Beet" #photography, #photooftheday #photographers

Such a strange contrast here. I was on the couch, staring at the ceiling. Evening light mesmerized me. #shadows #light #photography

A beer and a book. A BIG book. It was about the French Revolution. He would eat a little, read a little. He had blue Post-It notes nearby and used them liberally. #blackandwhite #art #photography

Here's to you older folks, I imagined her thinking when I photographed her. Those nails, that beer, and those eyes! #photography #portrait #blackandwhite #beer
