Foto-Friday: Callie

Fri Apr 27, 2012 10:24 AM EDT

Today's Foto Friday is a sad topic for me. My mother's border collie, Callie, was diagnosed with cancer yesterday. She will undergo surgery in two weeks and then a determination will be made about any further treatment (based upon whether or not treatment will increase her suffer …

I've never really made much of an attempt to use photo editing software to improve the quality of my pictures before. However, I recently purchased a smartphone and installed an application that allowed for on-the-fly adjustments.

Fri Feb 3, 2012 9:15 AM EST

A few weeks ago, I was taking care of my sister's dog. I took him out for a walk one evening after work and was treated to quite the sight. Sadly, I didn't have enough time to play with my camera settings to get better results.

Foto-Friday: A picture's worth...

Fri Sep 24, 2010 7:33 PM EDT

In 2007, my wife and I were traveling with her parents in Sichuan Province, China. Part of this trip included a 12 hour odyssey on a bus. The road was two lanes, with a vertical rock wall on the inside and a several hundred foot drop to a valley on the other side.

Foto-Friday: Non-portrait portraits...

Thu Sep 9, 2010 9:51 PM EDT

I generally never take pictures of people. I find that the vast majority come out either staged or less-than-acceptable (in terms of photographic value). However, every once in a while, I catch a moment that is unexpected...

Foto-Friday: Part of the Whole

Thu Jul 8, 2010 9:41 PM EDT

Foto-Friday comes a bit early from me this week, as I won't be able to do anything with pictures tomorrow. Also, I forgot my camera at my vacation home, so I'm forced to rely on my archives.

Cutest avatar... I have 3 cats I'd like to think are just as cute. :) You seem to be a animal lover, as I am, so figured I'd say hello.

You have left some brilliant comments, Fufu, but I just had to comment on your screen name and your avatar. Is the kitty's name Fufu? Reminds me when I was a kid and we adopted a puddy-tat off the street and named it "Fifi." That was until we discovered that it wasn't a girl-kitty... then we named him "FooFoo." He was the dearest ol' kitty! Anyway, I really enjoy reading your comments!
