The Bald eagles are here in groves again this year. I've been trying to get out and get some shots of them, it just seems the sun is playing a game of hide and seek.

She was by my side at every doctors visit helping me to explore the best option for me to pursue. The best option we decided on was to remove the a third of my right lung from which I am still

I reached a complete and total mess in April, so I have taken up my camera and ventured out in a direction I always wanted to pursue to keep my mind busy. I haven't and will not give up nature work, but I am pursuing also more artistic portrait work. It all has not been as easy as it seems, but that is why I moved some in the direction. The lighting poses and such make my mind work. One has no choice of background most times when taking nature
10 Years ago
10 Years ago I flew into Baton Rouge Louisiana as a Red Cross Volunteer to aid in the Hurricane Relief effort. From there I was dispatched help run the shelter at Nicholls University in Thibodaux. I had know thought of how it would impact my life, I was a big tuff guy and could take what ever came. When I arrived I busied myself going about what I was trained to do, checking people into the shelter. Seeing to it that the proper amount of meals arrived daily to feed the over four thousand people who had sought refuge with us there. Basicly the Shelter manager the staff and I were to act as the heads of a family of four thousand, seeing to they
