I wonder where you are now...

I was in India over Christmas 2008.
It was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. I think about this experience on a regular basis and wonder where all the faces are now - the faces that I captured with my camera.

We were touring around in Cherrapunji (known to be the wettest place on Earth, but incredibly dry on the day of our visit), when I saw the little girl sitting beside a well, watching her parents wash clothes. Something about her captured my attention. I wonder where she is now...
I also wonder where the elderly lady is now. She was sitting and waiting patiently for her laundry to dry on a humid day.
I've never seen colors as rich and alive as in India.

Hey, it's hay time! :-)

Dad spent part of the day bailing hay and Jann was busy cutting. Mom and I were busy checking cattle and watched Tasso take a refreshing bath in the watering troff.




Why are you washing the quad, Mom? Did you drive through too much cow poop???

Ahhhh! Yes, that feels so much better.

You can see all the grasshoppers in this photo. There are lots of them! (Please click to enlarge photo if you can't see the blizzard of grasshoppers.)

The cows were pretty excited to move to a new pasture.







Jack & Rodeo

Dad and I headed to the Austin Rodeo on Saturday night to check out the rodeo. Our horse Jack was going to be 'performing' at the rodeo as an exhibition Saddle bronc horse. Here are some shots from the evening.







Mama's Garden

My brother and I headed to the farm this weekend, for what he called 'sibling bonding.' I (obviously) brought my camera gear along to photograph Mom's blooming garden. The raspberries were sooo delicious!
