FRIENDS AND LOVERS AT THE LIED...

Lincoln is blessed to have one of the finest performing arts venues in this part of the country... the famous Lied Center. It seems to be a favorite with fans, and artists who perform there love it. Realizing it was going to be a sell out, I was commissioned to do a little shoot recently when Boyz II Men were in town. I have to admit, I'm not a huge Boyz fan like most of the crowd who seemed to know every word to every song, but I did enjoy their Motown set a lot. The best part for me was seeing such a beautiful mix of local folks getting out, enjoying each other and the great spring weather...

Ok...on with the show...

 Uh Oh...Do you see what I see?
 I guess these boys will be Boyz...

JUST PEACHY...

Piorina Fernando is a true Asian beauty, with that tropical ease and one of the best nicknames ever...Peachy, a perfect fit. What can I say? Peachy is a stunner! She could get up in the middle of the night and be ready for a photo shoot. Not only that, she's what I call smooth, a joy to work with and amazingly photogenic. We did OK, no? Check out our little shoot together...

Sweet as a peach...

REMEMBER TO REMEMBER...

the Last Adam...

the Life giving Spirit...

the One who said, if I be lifted up...

and, for this reason I came...

Mission accomplished!

(talk about love!)

It's getting crazy down here,
about time to restore all things.
The Spirit and the Bride say, come.
Put me in, Coach...

DOWN UNDER...

It's beauty with a bite...

Same rules apply as on top...

Law of the coral jungle.

Everybody's gotta eat, 

So, watch your step...

Or you could become someone's lunch.

Still, a nice place to visit...
and I'll be on my way,

HERE WE GO DOWN THE BEACH ROAD...

-

I have always been drawn to the water…to the beach…to the basics—the sun, the sand, the sea comprised of a myriad of minute details.

The scale and magnitude, always mind blowing, everything shifting, sifting, never the same…flowing.

On any of her uniquely different coastal shorelines Sri Lankan beaches beckon. The lure, inviting to be caressed, to be cleansed, to be a part of it all… where the troubles of man seem far away, where the hand of God is undeniably evident, where the powers in place will kick your ass if you approach any way but with humility, reverence, respect and awe, where you can soak and sink into the naked mystery of it all…

British transplant, Arthur C. Clarke said it this way..."and always it is the same; the slender palm trees leaning over the white sand, the warm sun sparkling on the waves as they break on the inshore reef, the outrigger fishing boats drawn up high on the beach. This alone is real; the rest is but a dream from which I shall presently awake."
He had a way with words...
