I went on a walkabout to the Potomac River’s Great Falls with my friend, Avi Bender. He gave me some great advice on portraits and we walked and walked and walked…he’s a walker, I’m a wannabe. We took lots of photos and talked of many things … I asked him about his family and he told me about his father … Read more
This is the first week of the New Year and so all should be bubbly and happy. Except, it’s not. The weather has been so blasted nice that I have forgotten what winter is like. So when the temps dropped below freezing and the winds began to blow, I mentally said, “Stop!” The word fruitless … Read more

Fifty years ago, which really seems like yesterday, I played guitar in a rock and roll band we called The Bird Dogs. The Bird Dogs played for five years in several states in the midwest, cut an original 45 record (what’s a record, my kids ask), and were on the road most weekends. Dennis Kuper, … Read more
