Rocky, our three-legged cat. My wife found him at our vet. in Va. He was missing his right paw. The vet didn't know if he caught it on something or if someone cut it off. It had a tough time healing and when we moved to Ga., the vet. here recommended we have the leg amputated. I didn't want to at first but he doesn't even seem to know it the way he runs through the house!

Fort Pulaski Casemate Arches

These arches in the casemate at Fort Pulaski are one of the most photographed feature of this fort, in my humble opinion. If you've never been, it's on the way to Tybee Island from Savannah, Ga. Copyright 2008-Infinity Fotos

Union Station in Washington, D.C. Opened on October 27, 1907 and completed in 1908, Union Station is considered to be one of the finest examples of the Beaux-Arts style of architecture. Architect, Daniel Burnham designed the building to be monumental in every respect and to serve as a gateway for the capital city. Seventy pounds of 22-karat gold leaf adorned the 96-foot barrel-vaulted, coffered ceilings. The white granite and classic lines of Union Station set the stage for the next 40 years of Washington's classic architecture - reflected in the construction of the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials and the Supreme Court building. The cost was monumental as well - $125 million for the Station and its approaches.

New Infinity Fotos website

I just launched a new and somewhat smaller website using Flash.

It's my first Flash effort so it may not be quite as high speed as others.

Check it out at www.infinityfotos.com and let me know what you think.

On the Sen. McCain Presidential campaign trail

I just wrapped up a stop with presidential hopeful Sen. John McCain here in Atlanta.

Here's some pics from the event.
He drew a pretty decent crowd and he wasn't too bad of a public speaker either.

Carrying photo gear on assignments

Greetings,
While in between the old home in VA and the new one in GA, I've managed to pick-up a couple of assignments for ZUMA Press in the Atlanta area this weekend.

Since some of my gear, bags and photo accessories are presently in transit here, I've had to take a rather large bag and fit it into something smaller.

I did bring my
Mountainsmith Tour pack with me but never could quite make good use of it the past year or so that I've owned it. However, yesterday I came across Steven Frischling's "Flying with Fish" blogspot. What a wealth of knowledge and talent he has when it comes to photography and travel.

I highly recommend reading his blog.
