These photos are not as good as some in the past, primarily because I didnÃt have enough natural light. However, because it was early morning and still about 54 degrees, I was able to get within a couple inches of the nest. I went back in the afternoon, when the sun was out, and I […]
Dan Downing Val and her new husband Mike — in Mickey Mouse ears to add levity to the occasion — appreciating parents and closest friends at their rehearsal dinner. The wedding of my niece brought together 175 people — separated by two degrees or less — in Austin last weekend. For me it was three […]

Chris Radulski is reading Eats, Shoots and Leaves by Lynne Truss, the best seller about punctuation, and the same book I thought IÃd get from my local library, except that I was the four hundredth in line.
