The main reason for this post is to let you see some of the pictures from my On The Road trip that are available for purchase - proceeds to our "Martha Fund" at St. Francis-in-the-Wood, West Vancouver. This supports Martha Nwaneri from Nigeria who had a liver transplant in South Africa a couple of years ago at the age of 17. You can find the full story in our Spring 2008 Newsletter here: http://www.stfrancisinthewood.ca/pdf/sf-news-spring2008.pdf and there is an update in the latest Newsletter here: http://www.stfrancisinthewood.ca/pdf/sfnews-summer2009.pdf
Martha faces about $20,000 of medical bills each year just to keep her alive, so we're trying to help. After all, how much is one life worth? So you're invited to spend and save: spend a little cash and help save a life!
The following pictures have been printed on high quality canvas and stretched to a frame 24"x18" and 1&3/8" thick for exhibition at St. Francis and are available for purchase at $250 (Canadian) each:
The Leuty Lifeguard Station on Lake Ontario in the Beaches area of Toronto on THAT day in the snow back in January when we were supposed to be in New Orleans...
A reflection of the Sun Studio in Memphis in a Cadillac fender - hmm, blue skies in Memphis after all that snow and ice!
Back into the snow and ice at Thomas Merton's monastery, Gethsemani, in Kentucky.This was taken on that day when I set off in the ice storm to return to Toronto to pick up my car.
I especially love the depth of field in this shot.
On down to New Orleans and Bourbon Street for a (relatively) balmy evening in February.Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans?
This is a real "on the road" shot as we were heading west into the night from Louisiana into East Texas.
Streams in the DesertTaken during those five nights and days I spent alone in the Sonora Desert thanks to the Cascabel Hermitage Association.
Sunrise at CascabelTaken the first morning I was in the desert in Arizona.

A winter's afternoon in Lowell, Massachusetts, Jack Kerouac's birthplace where I spent three days in January wandering the streets in the freezing cold, catching glimpses of Jack's ghost.
This picture is about the lines directing your eyes...
Another shot on that icy day in Kentucky when I discovered the micro-photography feature on my camera. Unless a grain of wheat fall into the earth...
Personally, I just love this shot of the stop-light at the crossroads at the entrance of Gethsemani Abey in Kentucky (where Thomas Merton lived for nearly 27 years. The ice storm had made the power go out - hence no light.
Self-portrait!
