Photography is all about natural light. Mid-day light is the worst. Sunrise and Sunset is the best. Of course that means I will have to accommodate the timetable of the sun, the sun will not accommodate me. Continue reading When did I agree to get up???

Pssst…..I’m in love with Andy
No, not that kind of love, although he turns out to be a very nice gentleman.
I read articles by Andy Mumford in Fujilove, a digital magazine. He wrote a compelling article about long exposure photography which is something Terry is interested in learning. Continue reading Pssst…..I’m in love with Andy
Uh Oh….Alfama and the Best Laid Plans for Lisbon
I talked Terry into “being a local”. I tell him, “Just think honey how much fun it will be to stay in an apartment, shop in village markets, walk to local cafes and bars and listen to the music of foreign languages. Let’s dive in and let the experience wash over us.” He not excited but he’s willing to go along. Continue reading Uh Oh….Alfama and the Best Laid Plans for Lisbon

Tapas Please!

Mardi Gras in Togas
The emperor was a genius. He decreed, “take them all to the sea when the thermostat pops its top”. The joke is on us, it will be close to 100 degrees today and we traveled 7,000 miles to get away from the heat. Continue reading Mardi Gras in Togas
Where’s His Fig Leaf?
Michelangelo’s famous “David” has drawn visitors to Florence for hundreds of years. I think everyone waited until today to take a peek. The crowds are overwhelming. Don’t take your eyes off your partner or they will be swallowed up by the river of tourists constantly moving around you. Continue reading Where’s His Fig Leaf?
