After the news about RBG, we’ll need all the happy thoughts we can get!!! To help you with that, I’m sharing this cute baby baboon photo which I took on our South Africa trip. A troop baboons (maybe 10 of them) wandered by our safari vehicle.

Look what we found in our yard this week. He/she looked very young…like it was born this week. Anyway, he hung out with us all Wednesday and left that night. Cute little guy/girl!!!!

MJ, Blair and I were out in the yard this morning messing around. We found this American Robin nest in a small tree next to our house. Inside were three tiny little baby American Robin birds. I’m not a bird expert, so I’m guessing these little ones are only a few days old. Someone out there can probably help determine their real age. They were waiting for their mom to bring dinner. Every time I made some noise, they would lift their heads like this expecting it to be mom.

Tonight’s photo is from our South Africa trip. Hard to believe that was over two years ago now. During one of the safaris, we came upon a troop of baboons including a few babies. This guy sat down near our safari vehicle and let us take a bunch of photos. By the way, I have no idea what is sticking out of his mouth.
Clarification: In my Mid-Life Crisis video (posted last night) I mentioned it is getting close to my birthday. What I meant is that my birthday is coming up within this year….. Basically, using that as a lame excuse to justify my expensive camera gear purchase…. So, it isn’t my birthday anytime soon. Sorry to confuse you….

Here is another photo from inside the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. I took this photo inside the hospital nursery located in the city of Pripyat. There are a few rooms inside the hospital like this. I have no idea how many babies were born there per year, but based on the nursery, it had to be a few hundred… I think. This room is an iconic Chernobyl spot…..

As I’ve said a few times in the past, MJ and been asking for more African animal photos. She mentioned it again today. So here is a mother hyena and her baby from our time in Kruger National Park South Africa. These two stayed in this spot, next to their den, while we got closer and closer. They didn’t seem to mind our safari vehicle. I liked this one with the baby’s tongue sticking out.
By the way, I’m sorry for the recent absence. Thanks for your frequent visits to my site.

Tonight I have something different for you. Outside of football, I almost never take people photos. But earlier this week, the local modeling agency sent over their new talent….Matthew. Matthew, his crew and I had a great time. We had about an hour of Matthew’s valuable time and captured some great images of him while he vogued for us. So here is Matthew….

As all of you know, I don’t take many pictures of people unless they are wearing a football jersey. But this week I had a great opportunity. The L Modeling Agency brought their latest model over for a photo shoot. We got the lights out, setup the studio, and snapped away. Emily was all business and can hold her own with any professional model. I had a great time shooting with Michelle and Larry (her parents and our friends). This specific picture is a collaboration….my light set, Michelle took the picture, Larry and I entertained the model to get that smile, and I post processed the image. Emily is such a cutie….
