I saw an ad in Rangefinder Magazine yesterday for the Steadepod, a sort of monopod/tripod replacement. It’s basically a retractable stainless steel cable – you put the base of the cable under [...]
Transitions Abroad has published another one of my photo stories, this one of my late 2008 trip par hasard through Dakar, Senegal, which ended up being my best trip in 10 years! I felt like I was back in Peace Corps again. The story goes like this:
During recent travels to Guinea, I experienced [...]
OK, perhaps I’m being a little dramatic. But still, this is the day that I’ll never forget. The day my Yaktrax fell into the abyss. The day I was stuck way out in the funnel. The day I was too paralyzed to move forward, too petrified to move back.

It’s finally time for our Christmas-New Years Southern Parks of Utah Road Trip! You never would have thought it would take 4 days to get from DC to Utah, but it’s already worth it! In case you didn’t hear, the DC area’s biggest snowstorm in years and years [...]

It’s Thursday night and my husband and I are getting ready for a 3 or 4-day photography trip to Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge and Assateague Island National Seashore. We’ll leave tomorrow and come back on Monday. Should have good weather, especially Sunday. I might have been there before as a kid, but I don’t even remember! It’s [...]
So I’m having a really fun time learning how to use WordPress. The book, “WordPress for Dummies” is essential! Today, I read about how to add video to my blog, so I thought I’d practice by posting some samples of a new product that I started offering recently — animated photo-videos created from photographs of [...]
