Photography, seeking, writing…and learning along the way. Want to come along?!

As you may have noticed, my interest in photography runs the gamut of subject matter.
I really like the idea of portraits; photographing people posed, or simply doing what they do. Arjun Bagga recently posted a photograph that has so many interesting layers- color, artistry, social and political undertones- really quite amazing… http://arjunbagga.wordpress.com/2013/02/06/hello-guess-who/
I continue to experiment!
Concetta is a regular at Fresh Grounds Cafe in St. Paul. She is a dancer and artist.
Bagheera is often overshadowed by his Tabby brother, Dylan. Today is his time to shine.
I realize this is an old challenge but an opportunity presented itself and I couldn’t resist…
I took this pic last summer on a fishing trip on the St Croix river in Wisconsin. I confess, I was just a bystander…but it was FUN!
I love working with kids on photo projects. They are SO candid and utterly uninhibited. Poor teachers…I leave a trail of chaos behind me. Today I visited a small Catholic school in the neighborhood. The kids are working on a special project to support Fresh Grounds, a non-profit coffee-house and social venture that is a great place to hang out and is also a job training site for at-risk youth.
Here are a couple of my favs (oh, by the way- the Archdiocese is closing this school..too much money dontcha’ know. Of course they have lots of dollars for other battles, but I won’t sully the post with politics.) If anyone HAS a million to donate- that is what it will take to keep the school open, and these kindergarteners won’t be scattered about.
INSIDE:
It is warm enough to have the porch open, with a bit of heat. The boys are making good use of the Coleman sleeping bag. (Product placement!!)
