Yesterday Atlas and I met up with Shel and Kate in Centennial park for a hot, but enjoyable walk around the lake. The weather was gorgeous, and everyone was out in full force – from kayakers to scooter riders. Shel was pretty fascinated by the bikers and doggies running by, but I managed to get him to sit still for a few short moments.

Summer walk
Monday, July 27th, 2009A day in the park
Sunday, July 5th, 2009My mom and I traveled to Acadia National Park on July 3rd, to see if we might find some sunshine and something to photograph. The weather in New England has been horrible for the past several weeks and we weren’t sure what we’d find. Luckily the weather improved during our drive there – a few openings of sunshine through the clouds – and the lush green foliage around the carriage roads was spectacular.
Here are some shots from the afternoon:
Fun with Mae
Monday, June 29th, 2009I spent yesterday afternoon with Mae, Leeya and Ryan, enjoying a delightful brunch and taking these fun photographs of their beautiful daughter. Here is a taste of the fun we had.
Kenneth Cole Awearness blog features global changemakers
Friday, April 4th, 2008Lucky me, I got to be one of them!
The folks at Kenneth Cole Awearness approached me several months ago, after viewing some of my Cambodian photography on Flickr. The photograph they chose to feature is one that means a great deal to me. It was taken during one of my first field visits to speak with women participating in our micro finance program and this woman’s particular story (and the image that was burned into my memory) kept me awake at night. Like so many other Cambodian women (and women globally), this grandmother has lost her daughter to HIV/AIDS and is now primary caregiver for several grandchildren. She is overburdened physically and financially and is trying to keep hope alive where there is virtually none. The work that Pact’s WORTH program was doing in Cambodia offered this woman possibility – a chance to lift herself out of poverty. I’d love to go back and find her to see if our work had an impact. I’m praying it did.
The Awearness blog is a great place to get inspiration on a daily basis. View my full Awearness blog posting here, and thanks again to Kenneth Cole!
