This was a project from some students at the University of Washington. Really cool stuff.
It’s always fun to see on of your stock images in random places. I came across this web article the other day. Here is the web page. Who is that gorgeous model?
p.s. It’s my wife.
I have been meaning to post something about this for a while now. A few months ago, I was approached by someone in England about doing a photography project. It would consist of 12 photographers from around the world taking one picture a month with e predetermined theme. The result would be 12 photographs a month. The project lasts for, you guessed it, 12 months. So by the time the project is done each photographer will have taken 12 photographs. If you are confused, I’m sorry. At the end of the 12 months each photographer will choose his or her best and submit it to the National Portrait Gallery of London, a highly prestigious award.
The picture above is from July’s theme of “commitment.” You can see the other 11 photographs here.
The main website is here.
We spent the weekend “camping” in our empty house in the Valley. We figured we should get out there since it will bo longer be ours soon. We went up to Independence Mine and hade a really fun day. After we took the kids out to eat, then to their favorite park. Total blast.
By the way, this is a new way to showcase the photos. Just click the first image to open the slide show.
My mother after many many many years of having the same hairstyle finally changed it. I have to admit I would have loved to have it like the first picture, with her long flowing white hair, but I absolutly love it now too. She has been totally updated and is even more beautiful. I love my mothers hair. I have to admit that my whole life I wished that my hair would go grey when I turned thirty like hers did, but alas, I only have a few gray hairs.
Here is my mother before.
Time once again for the annual Porcaro Barbecue. The food was AWESOME. The weather sucked. The guy who does the barbecue is a national champion. Makes me hungry all over again.
No it’s probably not what you think it is. It’s my lunch. Dried fruit, nuts, cheese, unsweetened herbal tea, and a mini Twix bar. Looks gross, I know, but it fills the calorie limit. When I turned 25 I lost 30 lbs. in four months by counting my calories. I ended up gaining it back in a few years. When I turned 30 I lost absolutely nothing in six months. In fact I have gained. This now comes to an end, at least I hope so. At least now I am putting it on my blog so I can be publicly ridiculed if I don’t male it.





What can I say more?
This is too funny. My wife got the futura right away.
