Picture was taken of a school bus going out on a 'dry run', in pouring rain, before the beginning of the school year. A watercolor painting effect was used to highlight the rain, fog, and accumulated water. I would like this photo art to be a reminder to all motorists to think about our precious children traveling in these buses, and to use special care when sharing the road with them.

This is 2 sets of triplets, all born on the same day, at the same hospital. The three boys in shorts are my sons. Now 4 years old, this photo was taken when we had the kids line up against the garage while moving cars in order to make the basketball goal more accessible. I think their expressions are priceless!

This photo was one of those "right place at the right time" photos, taken near the Kodak Colorado site.

This picture reminds me of the sense of awe we felt during our visit to the Statue of Liberty. We took this picture last summer (2007) while we in NYC for my daughter Rachael's acceptance at Carnegie Hall of a National Scholastic Writing award. Rachael had the idea for the photo and I took the actual shot of her, my wife and youngest daughter. Every time I look at this photo it makes me wonder how immigrants arriving at Ellis Island must have felt when experiencing their own, personal Independence Day.

I saw this old guy wearing mismatched clothes and angel wings, dancing in the park outside the Temple of Heaven in Beijing.

This picture was taken my first time to Chicago's Navy Pier, when my husband and I went for a long weekend to visit relatives.
