In the early 1960's my Father purchased something that changed my life forever. . .A Polaroid camera. It was rather strange in appearance, but it was the latest and greatist in technology at the time. You could snap the shutter, and in seconds out came a picture that slowly developed in front of your eyes in just a few minutes! It was a like having a portable darkroom. Magic! That camera was a springboard into the next decade when I bought my first 35 mm SLR. As they say, the rest is history.

One More Cup Of Coffee . . .
There is nothing like a hot cup of coffee in the morning. A cup in the afternoon isn't such a bad idea either. Coffee makes the world right for the few minutes you enjoy its goodness. A good cup of coffee has mind altering powers. I have a plethora of cups at my place. Coffee cups are one of the few things I collect. I have friends that collect coins, stamps and old cars. It isn't every cup that attracts me. They can be virtually any shape or size. I have to test drive it. Your know, pick it up, feel the weight, how does it fit my hand? Are there any irregularities or imperfections? After it meets that strict criteria, if the price is right, the cup will be added to the collection and somehow put it in rotation with my other cups. Sooner or later all my cups get photographed. Today I wanted you to meet a few of my favorites. . .

Winter Park Sidewalk Art Festival
The middle of March in Central Florida is a much anticipated time primarily because of the annual Sidewalk Art Festival in Winter Park, a suburb of Orlando. Critically acclaimed as one of the best art festivals in the county, the streets are literally full of paintings, sculpture, pottery, unique crafts and obscure, unorthodox pieces of artwork one could hardly imagine. I always have my camera in tow, so capture a variety of photographs of people, places and things. The following is a sample of last years visit.
