We were fortunate enough to have tickets to see the commissioning of one our newest submarines, the USS Texas. Then First Lady, Laura Bush, was present to offer comments and to commemorate the service of the new submarine.

I recently shot a job for a client. When we were finished, their old Goldie came limping into the room and plopped down on the rug. I knelt, made a couple of quick grab shots and packed my stuff to the truck. When I returned to the shop I picked out the best shot and sent the family a large format print. They really appreciated the gesture because they had no pictures of the family pet. Sometimes that tiny bit of extra effort cements a lasting relationship with a client.

This guy looks like he may have already had a couple too many. Would you want to tell him to turn over his car keys because he’s had too much?

Look at the look of concentration on his face. It looks like he can almost taste the people on the other side of the moat.

One more from the Hermann Park Safari.

Had a great time at the Halloween Party and thought you might enjoy these.
