Ethel, the Boston Terrier

April 7, 2014February 9, 2022 bigbertha

I was at a party recently and got completely distracted by Ethel, the Boston Terrier. The plan was to photograph people—my friends—but the dog got all my attention. I’m sure you can understand why.  She’s very photogenic. My friend David … Continue reading Ethel, the Boston Terrier

Outdoor Flea Market

March 23, 2014February 9, 2022 bigbertha

In August 2009 I was on a vacation in Vienna.  Among the many sights was this outdoor flea market. There was one piece that caught our eye – it was big, it was wooden and it was heavy.  Yet to … Continue reading Outdoor Flea Market

Grandma’s Hands

March 19, 2014February 9, 2022 bigbertha

A year ago I thought of starting a photography series on hands – young and old.  Although I was very excited about the idea – I didn’t get very far in making it happen.  I was waiting for the right … Continue reading Grandma’s Hands

Men’s Shoes

March 17, 2014February 9, 2022 bigbertha

Men’s shoes are always an interesting subject to photograph.  Fortunately, I know several gentlemen who are willing to indulge me in my quest to take the perfect shoe photo. These shots were taken outside the Perot Museum.  I like the … Continue reading Men’s Shoes

Meet Lady & Dude

March 16, 2014February 9, 2022 bigbertha

I recently had the opportunity to visit my friend Dawn, and her two ‘children,’ Lady and Dude. Instinctively, I pulled out my camera, though I wasn’t sure how the birds would react.  I didn’t want to scare them.  Dawn removed … Continue reading Meet Lady & Dude

Football!

March 9, 2014February 9, 2022 bigbertha

I pride myself in not watching the Super Bowl— not even for the commercials.  That’s why today’s post is especially compelling. Greg Kimbrough, or as I like to call him, Dr. House, is my gym trainer from a few years … Continue reading Football!

Passion Flower Crown

March 9, 2014February 9, 2022 bigbertha

I have a Passion Flower vine I’ve written about in the past.  I have a love-hate relationship with it because it has taken over the backyard.  But it’s also so pretty and fragrant.  The butterflies are a bonus.  But if … Continue reading Passion Flower Crown

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

February 26, 2014February 9, 2022 bigbertha

I’m using winter as my excuse to let the garden remain in shambles.  But I must admit I’m generally embarrassed when friends come over and have to step around the dead plants along the walkway.  This weekend I decided to … Continue reading Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
