An Abortion Controversy, Playing Out in Real Time on X.

This week, a married couple posted online about their decision to abort their 20-week Baby. This child whose life they chose to end, was a fully-formed Human Being.

There is Beauty in the Belly of the Beast

The Belly of the Beast is the capitol of Washington State, Olympia. We drove down there yesterday so we could sign a couple of petitions, one for voter ID in Washington, and the other to repeal the new "Millionaires Tax" which is an income tax. Lots of nice people were at the signing-we were lucky …

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #400: The Rule of Three

This week, our friend Tina is running things, and she asks us to slightly alter the photographic "Rule of Thirds" which divides the space into thirds, both vertically and horizontally.

At the Park: Why we are no longer a high-trust society.

On my way home from signing a petition to repeal the unconstitutional income tax, I dropped by a park near the Sammamish River Trail in Woodinvlle. The trail is paved, and divided like a normal road would be. It was a gorgeous day today, and there were cyclists and walkers on the trail, and moms …

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #398: Choose a Color

Well, this challenge has a condition, only six images allowed. I choose green, which has never really been my favorite color. I gave it some thought, and it's not the color green that I don't like, it's just particular shades. I don't like Kelly green, or chartreuse. But I do live mint-green, and my favorite …
