A shot of my son as he was running circles around the house, screaming and laughing. Warp speed ahead! He certainly keeps me and my wife on our toes. And in shape from chasing him in circles! Day 112 of my 365 photo a day project. If you are looking for art for your home…… Continue reading Warp Speed

Smiling Block Bins
The smiling block bins. All lined up nicely, content, full, happy. Take a good look. In our house, with a toddler running around, this is a very rare occurrence. I had to document that it actually does happen on occasion. Day 110 of 365.
64 Colors
Peach. Lavender. Thistle. Orange-Yellow. Or was it Yellow-Orange? Some very obvious names and some that made you scratch your head. I think it would have been great fun to be paid to name the colors of each crayon. Which was/is your favorite color? This shot came about after I spent the better part of the…… Continue reading 64 Colors
Sweet Ride
My son’s new wheels – a classic candy apple red Radio Flyer tricycle. What a sweet ride! He’s going to be the envy of all the kids in the neighborhood. Well, he will be, as soon as his legs are long enough to pedal the thing. Because of the layout of our living room, I…… Continue reading Sweet Ride
Spiderman, Spiderman…
My son at the local playground. As I watched him climb, I couldn’t help but hum the tune: “Spiderman, Spiderman, does whatever a spider can…” Day 71 of my 365 photo a day project.
Boy with His Guitar
A boy and his (it’s really his daddy’s) old 3/4-sized gut string guitar. This was shot with my cell phone and processed in Photoshop using Topaz Labs plugins – Impression, Texture Effects, ReMask, and DeNoise. Day 66 of 365
Learning to Hop
My son is learning to jump and hop now. I wanted to capture this moment in a photo so I took three shots of him in action and then combined them into one image. The vintage polaroid/1970 photomat-look was added just because watching him grow up reminds my of my own childhood was back in the….well,…… Continue reading Learning to Hop
Open for Refreshments
We picked up our Christmas tree for the house today. It wasn’t quite a Charlie Brown tree, but it was probably one of the smallest they had. We went to a place in Riverwest off of Humboldt Boulevard in Milwaukee called Kellners Greenhouses. It doesn’t look like much from the street but you don’t see…… Continue reading Open for Refreshments
X Blocks
These are my son’s old alphabet stacking blocks. And he loves playing with them. Well, I have to admit, that I love playing with them too. Spelling out words, seeing how high I can stack them, building pyramids – all the things a middle aged man is supposed to do, right? No, you say? Well,…… Continue reading X Blocks
A Quiet Moment
A quiet moment with my son, albeit brief, at the Milwaukee Public Library East Branch. I’m amazed he sat still even this long. He is a bundle of energy and never really stops moving! Day 11 of my 365 photo a day project. If you are looking for art for your home or office or…… Continue reading A Quiet Moment
Crayons
“Artists are just children who refuse to put down their crayons.” –Al Hirschfeld Nothing brings back more childhood memories than a plastic tub filled with hundreds of old, well used, multi-colored Crayola sticks from the 1970s. Shot on my Droid Turbo and processed in Photoshop. Day 10 of my 365 photo a day project. If you…… Continue reading Crayons
