SPLASH – One Great Dog

It is rare in life that you find someone that will always want to do what you want to do, go where you want to go, give you unending love, and be there for you no matter what your mood. Plus give you wet kisses, have beautiful brown eyes, velvet jet black hair, and is always excited to see you every time you walk in the door. For me that someone was our Black Labrador named Splash. He was the only black lab out of a chocolate litter that came into the world on September 27th, 2001. Bringing him home the first day after being weaned, one of the first things he did after peeing inside the...

Kemah Boardwalk Photo Walk

On Saturday the 24th of July, I had the pleasure of participating, for my first time, in Scott Kelby’s 3rd Annual World Wide Photo Walk. They had 1,110 groups and over 33,000 participants taking photos that day all around the world, pretty amazing.

Photo Day at the Houston Zoo

I ran across some photos I took back in May on an early morning photowalk at the Houston Zoo that I thought I would share. It has probably been over 25 years since I have been to the Houston Zoo and I was impressed on how much it has grown and is still growing. We had access to the Zoos public grounds and exhibits starting at 7:00 AM which is 2 hours before their normal opening time. A continental breakfast was provided and we were allowed to roam the Zoo grounds at our leisure, taking photos of all that the Zoo has to offer. There were also special opportunities to witness feedings, bathings...
