Heights dont’ freak me out all that much.  Earlier in my photography career I spent a good deal of my time climbing around the catwalks above basketball arenas which are usually at least 100 feet or so above the court.  However when the stability of the structure I’m standing on is (in my mind) questionable, that’s another story.  Last week I was back updating a continuing personal project I’m working on, and came across this dude working on a construction crane downtown……..

The operators will tell you otherwise, but something that tall and skinny just doesn’t look all that stable, especially on a windy day……….

Every now and then I’ll sneak into either Jack or Conner’s room while they’re sleeping and just watch them for a few moments.  Jack is downright comical with the number of stuffed animals and the various ways he contorts his body when he’s asleep, while Conner adopts more of a straightforward “baby pose” while sleeping.  One thing I’ve never been able to do is actually make a decent photograph of either of them because it’s usually so dark in their rooms.  Yesterday I was able to sneak into Conner’s room during his afternoon nap and even with the blinds pulled, there was just enough light coming in to help me out with this image.
