I drive my 2005 Chevrolet Cobalt everyday, but I can’t remember the last time I washed it. Nathan Parkhurst probably can’t remember the last day he didn’t wash his customized Mustang. There’s more wax on his fenders than there is in all of my wife’s Yankee Candles!

A smile is worth a thousand words, and maybe more in her case! How else could I tell the story about eight-year-old (8 - 1/2 as she says) Rachel Caliguiri fighting Cerebral Palsy without writing a word. With a soft voice and shy demeanor, she whispered to me that she gets to go to Disney World when she can walk by herself.

While I was waiting to photograph Gordon Webster, a former personal bagpiper for Queen Elizabeth at the New Hampshire School of Scottish Arts, I noticed these two dancers practicing something out of the ordinary - a Scottish Highland Sword Dance. All I could think of was “ouch!”

Here’s a couple photos that didn’t make it into today’s newspaper from the clowning class at Saint Christopher School in Nashua.

After the interview, Ryan’s brother, Liam proudly set his camera on the dining room table in front of me. I thought perhaps he was comparing the size of my company Canon Mark III to his plastic point and shoot toy. What neat little eyeballs it has on the top. I don’t have those on mine. And it talks too. How cool!

If you ask any photographer, they will tell you bigger is better. If you asked Debbie she will tell you bigger is better! So is bigger really better?

Smile for the camera baby! Now that’s a face only a mother could love!

There’s something about photographing breakfasts that usually turns me off. After all, taking talking-head photos at microphones isn’t exactly challenging. The exceptions are the Wild Irish Breakfast’s humor, and the annual Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. events.
