Enjoying the last minutes of summer sun light at the beach in Uruguay

Me and Buddy have only been paddle boarding together a couple of months but he loves it! He’s a 9 year old Dalmatian that is terrified of water - but the board lets him enjoy the water without getting wet. 

After the french quarantine, this photo was taken during the first street skate session with my friend Adrien.
The occasion to grab my Pentax 6x7 and cruise skateboarding the streets of Lille, north of France.
During the session we were talking about the quarantine and saying that it was "behind us" and so we wanted to do photos taken from the back of the subject ... here is an extract of this ! 

Un moment A la plage du Havre où la nature nous rappel sa beauté! 

Summertime Adventures at Crawford Lake Conservation Area!

To all teachers who are going out of their way to make sure their students are still learning despite the challenging circumstances, we would like to say a big THANK YOU!

taking advantage of social distancing I made sure in this quarantine to create unforgettable moments with my son

Our last “in person” school day of the year was Thursday, March 12th. None of us knew we’d be out the rest of the year, and it’s been hard on everyone!  As the PE teacher of over 500 students, I love being able to have a connection with all of them.  It’s so strange to go from seeing all of those students in one building, to only seeing some with the help of technology at home.  For the month of April, I mailed a birthday note and balloons to the 51 students who would celebrate their birthday that month.  Once the weather got nice, I partnered up with our art teacher, Mrs. Belanger.  She made a design with each students name on the envelope, while I wrote a birthday note from the two of us and included some balloons for them to do for an activity at home.  Instead of mailing them, I decided to go for long walks in our school neighborhood once a week to personally deliver them.  Being able to actually see some of my students and their families made me extra grateful each week.  It’s those little things that make such a big impact.  We plan to continue this into the summer!

Trying to watch TV with my six month daughter 

Hi! My name is Brooke Clemmons and I am a kindergarten teacher in Panama City Beach, Florida. I snapped this picture after decorating my car for our school parade!  It had been months since seeing my students due to the coronavirus and I thought decorating my car with lots of bright balloons would bring a BIG smile to their faces! It was such a great time and exactly what my teacher heart needed! Thank you for reaching out!

Sincerely,

Brooke Clemmons

My son-in-law, grandson and a friend at the shore. It was at that 'golden' time............sunset.

While vacationing in Newport, RI I was amazed to have myself the setting sun a passing sail boat capture the perfect days ending!

Just having fun over the summer. My son is my pride & joy.

This photo is special because my student is learning to shoot film. While I was jumping rope, she shot this well-timed shot. I love it! She is very happy with her capture.

Sliding away our cares in this beautiful fall weather, if you're from Texas you know what we mean!

Mya's photo shooooot!

At the beach with my friend, taking pictures during sunset

My son played "tag" with the waves while on vacation in South Beach, Miami this past year. He was disappointed he couldn't swim as the waves were too large, but that didn't stop him from having a great time!

In the peak of summer, when the scorching heat of the sun wilts trees and man equally, there stood a flower seller, his hands filled with colorful fresh flowers and his lips stretched in a wide smile. He was such a cheerful sight to see that one could not help but stop to take a second look at him.

This cat has provided a discrete amount of fun to me and my girlfriend during our winter holiday in Marrakech. Thinking to get a bit away from the rush of the Medina, we found refuge in this old park, found this cat - who started posing for us but would not let us cuddle him. Or better..me! It reminds me of a wonderful day spent in Morocco.

Taken one fine day in May at dawn. It shows the lighthouse at Penmon Head and Puffin Island -- just off the Island of Anglesey in North Wales.

Every time I look at this photo of my husband and our first grandchild, I am reminded of how sometimes the best photos are pure luck. I could not have predicted that at the very moment the shutter clicked she would give me such a look of contentment and happiness at being in the loving arms of her "papa." Just like in life, in photography, sometimes the best moments are unplanned.
