Please go to this site

Please tell ten friends to tell ten today! The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting enough people to click on their site daily to meet their quota of donating at least one free mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman. It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on "donating a mammogram" for free (pink window in the middle).

This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate mammogram in exchange for advertising.

Here's the web site! Pass it along to people you know

The Three Girls

As we walked the remote hills of the Sapa area, we can across a school. All the kids ran out to see the white people. These three girls caught my eye. So much attitude.

Walking Home

This photo is from the same day as "Foggy Morning". Turns out that it was a foggy day. When school is over, today it happened to be around noon, the mothers pick up their childen and start the walk home. The walk is not not so long but it was definitly not for the faint of heart. Can you see that cliff. The little girl with the umbrella is half my size. It was like rock climbing for me to get up there. On a clear day the view is fantastic.

50th Post

In honor of my 50th post (that means you now have to click older posts so do not forget) I have decided to post this quote:

"I love it when I'm on a roll. All the creative juices tend to roll, and nearly everything you see, starts to look good. One starts to begin to see all over again. Not only see but feel. And when that starts, it's the greatest feeling in the world. I start really working on composition and using light coupled with content, and when that happens it is truly amazing."

Foggy Morning

This photo was taken on my last day in Sapa only a few days before i was to actually leave Vietnam. I was up early as usual. It was a 5 minute motor bike taxi down to the turn off for the village that we were going to. The walk, an hour and a half to accommodate for all the photo stops. The farther down we went, the thicker and thicker the fog because.

The Fox

This weekend I went out to Buck Ridge Gold Course in Markstay. It was a beautiful day. I was driving around the course when I came across this red fox. I had seen him earlier in the day and he is definably not scared of anyone.
