  • Your Usual Rant

    Remember the Kinks? “Tastes just like cherry cola, C-O-L-A.” Those guys. Yeah, them. I follow Dave Davies — one of the brothers — on Twitter. He’s begging Twitter bots to stop censoring him every time he mentions the word Kinks. As we would say around here, “Oh FFS.” Just wait until IA technology gets a…

  • Four Days Gone

    The work is the prayer.

  • Broken

    Like a rant. Not a rant. As many of you know we had a lot of unplanned traveling this week which will trickle into next week. I keep saying that we hope to be home by January 9th, but even that’s questionable. We did something that we never do. We flew private. Given Southwestern’s total…

  • On Independence Day

    W e’d like to celebrate today. But, we can’t. We won’t. The United States Supreme Court radically overhauled America in just two weeks. We don’t recognize what we once were. For sure, plenty of people are protesting, planning emergency rescues and some are even leaving the country. That won’t change much. Change will only happen…

  • Troubles

    I started thinking about our world. Normally, I’d like to think I’m positive in general, but not right these days. Our world is a terrible place. There is the elephant in the room, CoVid19 which became political when it was scientific. Even though the numbers are rising at the rate of five times faster than…

  • Can’t Let Go

    I started this day thinking about the things I really like. Some are obvious. Some less so. There’s photography. Art. Design. Color. There’s baseball. The New York Yankees. F1 Motorsports. Music of all genres. Live music. Recorded music. There is travel. Other countries. Southeast Asia. Hong Kong. China. The American Southwest. Virginia. Even New Orleans.…

  • The Push and Pull

    N ew projects are always exciting. This is one that I’ve photographed on and off over the last billion decades or so. It’s about the end of things. Buildings, cars, places. Just about everything We talk about recycling. We talk about limiting plastics. That whole thing is a ridiculous notion. Have you ever driven across…

  • Run The Voodoo Down

    L ast night it came to me in a fever dream just how much work there is to do. Not just me but for all of us. We know the most pressing items. The pandemic, climate change, inflation, crime, Ukraine, China. There are smaller issues that don’t seem so pressing. But, they are. The infrastructure…

  • Something About Stars

    H urricanes and water. That’s what we are looking at. We are also looking at a full frame picture, not something made on a phone. It is a reason to leave Louisiana. Two 100 year storms in 16 years. First came Katrina. Then, came Ida. That’s enough right there. It’s enough not to have power…
