Went to Costa Rica a couple of weeks ago to scout for a potential 2013 photo tour. We went to 6 different lodges to determine wildlife photo productivity and food/lodge quality. Target species were frogs, hummingbirds and sloths. After doing some research, I was aware there were frogs throughout CR, but had no idea of the diversity. All the frogs photographed, with the exception of one, were nocturnal. So, learning the appropriate night settings was a fun challenge in comparison to what I normally shoot with morning and afternoon natural light. Sometimes a flashlight worked, but two diffused flashes set in sync at -2 or -3 worked best. After locating by sound the frog, who were sensitive to light, you would have to position the flashlight off a distance to maintain view but then quickly focus and hope for good subject eye position. The above and below two frogs are the poster frog of the rain forest, the Red-eyed Green Tree Frog.is the beginning of my post. After locating by sound the frog, who were sensitive to light, you would have to position the flashlight off a distance to maintain view but then quickly focus and hope for good subject eye position. The above and below two frogs are the poster frog of the rain forest, the Red-eyed Green Tree Frog. The below Glass Frog was almost clear and very small. This Blue-jeans or Strawberry Poison Dart Frog was the only frog photographed during the day. The below bird is the most magnificent I have ever seen and photographed. The stunning colors and extra long tail are just unbelievable when viewed in the wild. We were able to photograph the male along with a female at a nest cavity and adjacent area. The hummingbirds in CR were stunning. We saw 20 different kinds. Allot of them were photographed near or adjacent to feeders. Below are some of my favorites. Violet-crowned Woodnymph Fiery-throated Hummingbird Magnificent Hummingbird Purple-throated Mountain Gem Hummingbird Stripe-tailed Hummingbird Green violet-eared Hummingbird Magnificent Hummingbird Violet Sabrewing above and Green-crowned Brilliant Hummingbird below. In addition to the above special species below are some others that I thought were worth posting. Scarlet Macaw eating an almond. Squirrel Monkey Coati above and Ghost Bat below. After seeing the colorful diversity of species and locating some great lodges, plans are to lead a photo tour to CR next year. Hope to have something on the web site in the upcoming months. If you think you may be interested, send along an email. If you want to see some additional images from the trip take a look at this gallery on the web site. Blue Skies and great histograms.

Each One a Gift, 2010 Yesterday morning, as part of a project I’m working on, I visited the neonatal intensive care units at our local children’s hospital. Spread across a half dozen or so separate and carefully isolated areas, sixty-three tiny babies are struggling to survive. Sometimes the hospital has to find room for more. Most were born prematurely. They’re placed in high tech cribs, many covered by home made quilts that minimize stimulation. The lights are kept low here. Monitors and lines and machines that hiss and hum and beep are everywhere. The average stay is thirty days. A few of these infants won’t make it. Twins are apparently especially vulnerable. Nurses or doctors are never more than a few steps away. Parents from all walks of life are one when it comes to being here, there being little more than a chair and a curtain, and sometimes not even that, separating one crib from the next. But parents seem to like having each other close by to share moments of progress and to have someone to lean on in moments of crisis. Sixty-three fragile infants. Each breath a gift. I tell you, there’s nothing like a visit to a place like this to remind you just how inconsequential any problems you think you might have really are. On my way out, I heard a loud cry from one of the tiny infants, a child barely bigger than my hand. The nurses all turned around and smiled. One exclaimed, “That’s the kind of lungs we like to hear around here!”

In this study, the Southern Poverty Law Center found that Latinos are facing increasing hostility and discrimination as they fill low-wage jobs in Southern states that previously had few Latino residents. Based primarily on a survey of 500 low-income Latinos at five locations in the South, the report documented wage theft, racial profiling and other abuses driven by an anti-immigrant climate that harms all Latinos regardless of their immigration status.

Watercolor and bodycolor; 5 9/16 x 4 1/2 in. "In Venice, I am treated as a nobleman. . . . Here I really am somebody, whereas at home I am just a hack." -Albrecht Dürer Though Dürer lamented Germany's medieval conception of artists, Italian Renaissance ideas first came north in a powerful way through him. Dürer initially trained in Nuremberg as a goldsmith, painter, and woodcutter. After visiting Venice in 1495, he intensely studied mathematics, geometry, Latin, and humanist literature. He expressed himself primarily through prints; painting was less profitable, and Lutheran church reformers disdained most religious artworks. Dürer's paintings are few and more traditional than his engravings and woodcuts. In 1498 he published the first book entirely produced by an artist, The Apocalypse , which included fourteen woodcuts illustrating the Book of Revelation. Its vivid imagery, masterly draftsmanship, and complex iconography established his reputation. After visiting Italy again from 1505 to 1507, Dürer's art assimilated Renaissance principles. Unlike his earlier, more Gothic woodcuts, Dürer's engravings of 1513 and 1514 suggest the influence of Italian chiaroscuro and were conceived in painterly terms, using a range of velvety tones rather than lines. His drawings include studies of hands, draperies, and costume, portraits, Madonnas, and intimate and detailed watercolor studies of nature. Despite the impressive scope of his workshop, Dürer left no direct successors, though his easily transportable prints were influential throughout Europe.
