A large Jenga stack at the tennis ranch, a fun distraction for some of the young tennis players.

My first attempt at merging three photos into a panorama using Photoshop.

Kay and Larry took a cruise to Alaska in 2011.
Without me. Sob.

Zombies with Cameras
Josie drank coffee as the darkness waned. She’d been awake for hours.
She’d discovered an online insomniac community. Some couldn’t go to sleep right away, some woke up in the middle of the night. Others, like her, woke up too early.
They photographed what they saw when they wished they were sleeping. A collection of their photos, “Zombies with Cameras,” hung in a gallery, with the opening ceremony that night.
The photographers hadn’t met before; they’d recognize each other by their “Sleeping is Overrated” buttons and insomnia-induced lifeless movements.
The sun rose. Another long day – and night – awaited.
