"I am a photographer, not a magician"
The wisdom of the recently and dearly departed portrait artist Stan Burns. Stan was one of my dads pack of friends. These men and their wives survived the battles of a world war and then went on to build the Boise we now love. Boise high grads of the early forties they made Boise what it is.

As I became an adult I was lucky enough to know Stan and wife Mary Lou as friends. His wit was sharp and dry, but he could sure make you smile. I will miss you Stan. Hope you and dad are having a cheap scotch, and you had to buy!

Boise 2010 Calendar
This years Boise Calendar is headed to the printers. Take a couple of weeks till I get them back. This is by far the very best calendar yet. I was lucky enough to team up with historian Todd Shallat from the Department of History and Politics at Boise State. He has provided a bit of Boise history to each months photo. The images are as varied as usual, everything from a wet sidewalk to a surreal veiw of the Ann Morrison fountain at sunset. Haven't got all the details worked out on distribution, but I will have them at the market the last two weeks in October for sure and can mail them.
CAN'T WAIT.
Need to give a special thanks to my kids Don and Elissa, thier help was invalualble in picking which images to use and the overll design.

Monica rubs the spoons at Jo's new Sunshine Lounge. Captured this with the iphone. Had a great night of frivolity and music. Who says no one will come out on a Monday? The cool, hip, appreciative crowd had a very good time, and were home in time to get up easy for work. Thanks to Jo and the Boise Blues Society.
