The Beauty of Black and White

There is something truly special about black and white photography. It seems to have a depth and evocative quality  that is not found in color photos; at least in my opinion.
Here’s a pic of our beloved Mr. Cheddar, looking oh so handsome, as usual.
“Whatcha thinking about, big fella?”

Simple Pleasures: “Little Events”

Read this interesting post  today, over at one of my favorite blogs: Selma in the City, celebrating the “little events” in life that make up our days and shape our lives. Truer words were never spoken. Thanks for the inspiring words Selma!
Thought I’d focus on some of the day to day (ordinary) events that make me [...]
