Happy Valentine’s Day

Okay, so this is going up a bit late in the day, but that’s just how it goes sometimes. We took the pictures before heading out the door to school this morning, this is just when I got a chance to get them uploaded.

Hope everyone’s V-Day (or anti-V-Day, depending on how you look at this particular holiday) was a good one!

Happy Holidays from Me, Prairie…and Flickr

A bit of silliness on Flickr these days: if you add a note that says simply ‘ho ho ho hat’ to a photo, Flickr will add a Santa hat to the photo where the note is placed.

There’s a few people getting up in arms about the ‘defacement’ of their photos, but if you decide you don’t like this, you can simply delete the note. I see it as a harmless bit of holiday silliness.

And I like harmless silliness.

About to be published…

I’ve been holding off on saying anything about this just in case something fell through, but since I got the check in the mail today, I figure it’s worth letting the cat out of the bag…

…the freakin’ New Yorker just purchased one of my photos to use in an ‘advertorial’ for the MGM Grand casino for $250!

The photo will be part of a spread in the Nov. 27th issue of the magazine.

Too cool!

Spent a very nice day at the Woodland Park Zoo today. I’ve got the photos sorted out and almost ready to upload, but there’s still a few I want to tweak a bit before sending them up. That’ll come tomorrow. In the meantime, I’ve uploaded four taken today of either Prairie or me. Consider it something of a ‘teaser’. Here’s the other three…
