Located in the middle of the French Quarter of Shanghai, this park is full of retirees from the generation that knew the opulence, decadence and culture – of the British and French colonial period.

First iPad Photo
el Guapo reveling in the sun…a rarity for us up here in the nearly perpetual rain shadow that traps a thick layer of clouds between the Olympics and the Cascades…
I constantly have friends asking me how I use Adobe Lightroom. Luckily, my cousin George invented it. Single-handedly. Just kidding. But he was one of the creators. Proof: His name is on the Splash Screen (or was, until LR3 came out). Plug for George here. This is not meant to be a definitive way to use LR. It’s just how I use it, for my needs. So let’s start there.
My Needs
I have two types of photography: Sports, and everything else. For the Sports photography, I typically do 500~1,000 shots in one event. For “everything else,” it’s divided into my daily photos (stuff I see when I’m out and about), and planned shoots – professional stuff, trips, etc.

Yasin is the country manager in Afghanistan for PARSA, an NGO that is run by Fran’s sister Marnie. They showed a short documentary made about their efforts to educate children in Afghanistan in the shadow of the Taliban (who don’t want any females to be students or teachers).

Oh. Almost forgot to mention. Here’s the gorgeous graduate:
