Whirling Dancers

I'm spending this week at New World School of the Arts photographing and interviewing the school's faculty for a publication.  Here's a fun shot I got of dance instructor Rebecca Cannan in the midst of her dancers. 

Lea Takes Pictures

OK... I know this doesn't count but I couldn't resist. I just found this black and white of me in my Buster Brown sailor suit behind the lens, c. 1965 .

Dog Park Morning

Here is Peter, our very own Dog Whisperer, facilitating doggy teather ball.  Note that Baci is the only dog with four paws planted firmly on the ground!

Last night I had to (try) to take some photographs of Miami's Performing Arts Center (now Arsht, formerly Carnival) for a New World School of the Arts publication. This, an outtake, I quite like -- taken zooming by on the freeway (watching driving, not what I was shooting...)

Gardenias in the Garden

I love this time of year when I can smell the gardenias in bloom outside my studio door. So wonderful!

Happy Day!

Gianfranco and I took Baci to Hobie Beach today -- she LOVED it, of course! She found some friends and swam after the tennis ball until she was tired. Now she's taking an afternoon power nap!

Pink Star Flower Blast

It is warming up here in Miami and the subtropical flowers are starting to come alive... Love these -- Hoya carnosa -- blooming in pink clusters and wrapping themselves around the bougainvillea.  I only have to look out my window.

Some downtown art... Miami near Flagler Street

Graptopetalum paraguayenes

Another shot from the back yard -- love this plant (also known as mother of pearl or ghost plant). 

A reed-stemmed epidendrum in my new favorite color.  These are going wild in the garden outside my studio.
