The here and now... and what and why

Complacency is a trap. At least that’s what I was thinking when I up and left the comfort of a Yankee prep school gig, where I taught music, amongst other things, for 28 years. There was also that life long career as a composer, musician and artist.

First, it was a year in St. Thomas, USVI, working as a reporter and shooting photography and then, a year in San Agustin Etla, Oaxaca, Mexico.
Time passed.
More time passed and a year back in the Athens of America followed by a hasty return to Oaxaca where it is all happening.
A couple of years in San Sebastian Etla and now, just down the road in San Pablo Etla. Life is good.

You can find my music on Jango (World & latin - Worldbeat) and at iTunes and most online stores.

Godot? Is that you?

While waiting for Godot in front of Santo Domingo... he did not show... I snapped some shots. 
There is always lots of action and it is wonderful people watching.  Another classic quinceanera portrait.
This shot really made me think.  I am pretty sure that the boy is one of the kids who spends most of his time on the streets.  His mother could be a vendor.  So I don't think this woman is his mother and is just sharing a movie or video with the child.  I keep weaving stories in my mind.....
