UFC Fowl
The ducks are always entertaining. This morning I fed them and as usual there were all these duck fights. This is so funny for me because while the larger ducks fight for dominance, the younger ducks don’t care and just eat all the food. In this featherweight match Harold and Denny square off. They get in a clench. Harold gets …
Cosmo
Tonight we had another Fridate in the city. Sandy brought me to the Cosmopolitan Cafe, where we enjoyed a Ahi & Salmon Tartare appetizer & cocktails. For our entrees, Sandy ordered the pan seared Yellow Fin Tuna while I munched on the Sturgeon special. The shared desert was the Banana Pecan Galette. With full bellies …
Canon G9
I wanted to get rid of my G7 in favor of the upgraded G9, so I got a used one on Ebay. A week later Canon announced the G10, Doh! Here’s one of my 1st shots with the G9 with our always grouchy model Judy (I don’t pay her OT).

Desert was grilled pineapple and croissant bread pudding topped with whiskey sauce. Everyone chipped in with appetizers and Cait tossed a nice spinach salad. After …
The Gate
One of my all time favorite shots of Sandy is, “The Gate”. While we were back in the Philippines we tried our best to recreate it.
Rick & Jen… Take 2
I finally got some time to work on Rick & Jennifer’s Wedding photos. The Wedding & Ceremony were held at Holman Ranch, a lovely venue. The Wii theme throughout was incredibly cute. It ended all too quickly.
