in the alley are the things hidden. Content Warning.
Quick Note: the photo has been edited. Nothing major except changing it from color to black and white. Over a year ago, during a rather unseasonably warm winter's day, I went to play tourist with a friend in a nearby beach front town. There, I passed this alley, something I had done a hundred times before. Before this day, I merely glimpsed down it, and not once can I recall seeing anything that made me do a double take. If I did, I never took a picture of it.

Third Time's the Charm. Runner-Up in Through the Lens Challenge.
When I was a child growing up near Binghamton, New York, magic happened one night: the Northern Lights - Aurora Borealis - danced for us. This was a good 50 years ago, long before cell phones and Aurora Apps. This was when no one saw them coming, and we were incredibly lucky to catch them at all.

Youngest and Oldest. Runner-Up in Through the Lens Challenge.
Here is a simple selfie of me and a baby. But every picture tells a thousand words, and this is no exception. The baby is Isaac, my youngest cousin. In our family, I am the eldest cousin. We take this picture often, whenever I go visit my cousins. Just the massive age gap - fifty-five years - entertains me. But it's more than that.

A Snowy Adventure…
Sunshine Coast… here we come! Dreams of shimmering golden sands were set to become reality before the sun dipped below the azure horizon once more. Frothy white capped waves restlessly rolled back and forth... waiting to embrace me ever so soon. Memories of delectable fried rice and bubble tea tantalised us. Nothing could stop us… we’d be there in time for lunch.

Devoted, Determined and Deeply Loved
This is one of dozens of photos I have of this very special guy, but it's my favorite for many reasons. Obviously, the light was perfect when I turned and saw it, and it framed up nicely, but the most important part is his intense focus on what you can't see. He's not just watching the sunset.

Breaking the Depression Through the Lens
In the early 1980s, my brother graduated from high school and spent a year working for a local moving company while deciding what to do with his life. Our mother insisted that he attend a Christian college, so he looked for a school that would allow him to play baseball, and he eventually settled on Covenant College because our middle sister had discovered it and recommended it to him. Covenant is located on Lookout Mountain, Georgia, just across the state line from Lookout Mountain, Tennessee, where the famous Rock City can be found.
