Memorial day seems to be a holiday that people no longer celebrate. We have men and women who have made the ulitmate sacrifice for our liberty and protection and yet, my fellow citizens don't seem to care. We have men like the one in the photo above, who came to the ceremony in Dublin in a wheel chair, and yet, was able to rise to hear taps played and to listen to our national anthem. We've lost over 2,000 men and women in the war in Iraq. Will they be remembered for their sacrifice? Why have people forgotten to honor our fellow citizens for their courage and deeds?

At the beach 2
For many years now, as we vacation with our friends, I've taken a photo of Allison and Ian on the steps. I started out when they were quite young. I think this photo expresses one of the best images that I captured. Ian looks pained (I'm making him do this again) and Allison looks like she can't wait for it to be over. We've spent some great summers together over the years and we've always made some great memories.
Oh Look, a Camera
Jay, John, and Sasha at the 2006 Dubby Awards, the High School Awards banquet for the Theatre group. I've watched these three grow up over the years and they are all real hams. Give them an audience and an idea and they run with it. Break a leg, guys. I know I'll be able to say I knew you when....
Little Girl on the rocks
This is one of my favorite images. I took an afternoon to wander around Scioto Park to get some random pictures. This little girl was wandering around the rocks on the shore of the river. It's one of those magic moments when you capture something unique. A few seconds later, she had left to go play on the swings and the moment was gone.
