This Little Bird
I am no wildlife photographer. But, when I got a lead on a little story, I thought it might make a good Our Town. So I went to check out this little bird, a Killdeer, that had set up a nest in a parking lot. I went back three times, laid in the grass, got [...]
Father’s Day
Caption: Eight-year-old Loren Gilland dances with her father, Christopher, during the 12th annual Father-Daughter Dance Night at the Activities and Recreation Center. The pair attended the dance last year and came back this year. “We’re trying to make a tradition out of it,” Christopher said. On a related note, this image generated a little bit [...]

I had my very own “Cynicism Can Suck It” moment this week. A couple of weeks ago, I met the Mugabo family. Immigrants from Rwanda, they’re originally from Congo, but fled the violence there and went to a refugee camp in Rwanda. Eventually, they made it to Columbia. About a month ago, the father, Jean-Marie, [...]
Heat Index
Blurg…it was hot today. Caught these kids cooling off and rough-housing in their backyard in between assignments.
The Drag Show
Just a few outtakes from a drag show at Soco Club last night. I was there to shoot a preview for PrideFest.
Day on the links

Nick Wilson, of Rocheport, hits out of a sand trap on the 1st hole during the second round of the Phil Cotton Invitational June 6, 2010 at A.L. Gustin Golf Course. Wilson finished the two-day-tournament [...]

Felton’s position was not renewed for the upcoming school year. Covered the last day of school at Derby [...]
First Assignment
God, I haven’t shot — really shot — in a while… One from my first assignment at the Columbia Daily Tribune today, a recertification test for arson dogs.
Puppies!
I’m willing to bet you’re looking at this because of the headline. (Just further proof that puppies and kids drive traffic to news sites.) Anywho, I went to a dog show here in Columbia today, for no other reason than I’ve never been to one and I was bored. I did learn one thing today [...]
Sign Language
Social commentary or unintended juxtaposition? I’ll leave that up to you… Though I am surprised that the feminists in CoMo haven’t had it taken down. Or at least switched.
Hoopin’
So…it’s my first post in awhile; probably because I just finished moving, started a new job and really haven’t got off my butt to shoot anything lately. Anyway, Douglass Park – Take 1: I’ve taken ones like this before, but I like this one best.
