Your Daily Cup Of Joe

Actually, Little Joe, age approximately 3 months.

Back In The Day

 Lucy, at the age of 10 months, playing with her relatively new 4 month old sister Sable

I went on a 3 hour tour the other night of photos that I had copied on CD's when I first started taking digital photos.  Sure there's a multitude of them and I only made it through the first 2 years.  But, I know that at the time I started taking digital that I must not have realized that I could take 100's of photos a day and it not cost me anything.  I was still thinking in terms of 24 or 36 exposure rolls of film, otherwise, there would be so many more.  I've said it before that I regret not taking more photos of Lucy when I first got her because they grow up so fast.  What that must feel like for their body to make such a transformation that first year of life.  No wonder they can be so destructive.

Wish I Could Adopt One

A shelter worker gives a shot to a puppy at an animal shelter established to care for abandoned and stray animals following Hurricane Ike in Galveston. All of the animals arriving at the shelter are photographed to help with locating their owners. Most of the island remains without running water, electricity or gas since the hurricane hit in the early morning hours of September 13.
