Hey, did you know there is a women's history trail Hey, did you know there is a women's history trail in Massachusetts? It's the National Votes for Women Trail -- it has five sites in Massachusetts, and I've been covering the dedication events for @suffrage100ma. There are speeches about the current state of affairs, some history about the rulebreakers and visionary women getting honored... but the most exciting moment is always when they unveil the historical marker with a flourish, to applause and photos. 

Here are moments in @hamiltonhallsalem, @danvershistoricalsociety and Worcester. They honor Sarah Wall (refused to pay her property taxes as long as she was denied the right to vote), the Remond family (who worked for suffrage and abolition of slavery) and Anne Page who worked for suffrage. People worked so hard just to get us this far...

I went to the LIFE magazine photography exhibit, a I went to the LIFE magazine photography exhibit, and many of those vintage photos were powerful, but this one spoke to me in another way. -- by Henri Cartier-Bresson, who was assigned to make lifestyle photos in Peiping in 1948. 

I've been doing tai chi for ages, and even though these guys are 75 years distant and continents away, they seem familiar.  I'm like, Hey, check out that guy's Pick up Needle from the Sea Bottom! Like I could jump into that photo and know what to do. Felt strangely connected. Appreciation to all the teachers who have passed this art from person to person across generations and cultures. : )

Dana Hall in Wellesley. It's nice to sit close where you can fully experience not just the sound, but the physicality of their mastery, and see all the listening and interaction as they bring the notes off the page and into the air.

Man!

We made these portraits for a new website  introducing her project, In Tandem. It's dedicated to bringing new voices to, and breaking barriers of color, in classical music. See lucialin dot com for duet videos from the project.

That time i photographed @moodystreetcircuskid and That time i photographed @moodystreetcircuskid and @cirquemelinda being amazing on their aerial equipment, and we were done and i was starting to pack up and they said, Okay, your turn! 

What!? I was skeptical, but when the prima coaches are telling you yes... of course you have to go for it! 

1) showing me my first move. 2) hoist assist. 3) adjusting to how high it feels to mere mortals. 4) I learned one hand is for styling and one hand is for: Death Grip!

I remember this time at Bryce Canyon when we said, should we get up super early and go photograph the dawn? and we decided yes even though the forecast was cloudy... and we got our lovely dawn photos. And then we were turning away, okay let's go get breakfast, and right then this rainbow shimmered into being right before us and i was just stunned with appreciation. Speechless! Overwhelmed by beauty. With @wigglefloofs and @definitely_hans
