Portrait of a biker as a young kid.

Happy Ranger.

Here is one of the few pictures that actually shows Alex riding a bike, right there, right in the middle of the frame, suspended in motion. He just learned how to ride without the training wheels last week. Thanks to Raul or rather his brother's way of training: starts with "duck walking" seated on the bike, don't start pedal until building up some balance and momentum. That is don't combine moving forward with pedaling in the beginning. The method works well in Alex's case.

Getting ready to fight the bad guys. Power Rangers SPD GO.

Harry is busy eating. He got all his teeth. That must be some crackers there.

Snack Time.

You got to enjoy falling. He didn't crash riding the bike. He put the bike next to the dolphin and fell down when he tried to get on the tail. Harry couldn't be bothered.

Ride a bicyle.

Hurricane Rita

Just when you thought things couldn't get any worse, bang, shit hits the ceiling. Rita is bearing down on Louisiana and Texas as a Cat 3 hurricane. Here's CNN pretty boy Anderson Cooper reporting live from Texas as captured by my D70 using a rented Nikkor 80-200 1:2.8D shooting at ISO 800 sensitivity. Still capture from my Toshiba 46HM95.

inside the tent. It's end of August, the day is hot but the night is cold. We were overwhelmed the first night. The following night was much better, in part because of the weather warmed up a bit, and also we got a 'crash matt' from TaiKam, which helped.
