Shutter happy!

Included: national aquarium, great falls VA, my two cats Dolce & Gabbana, mask I made from scratch for a Halloween party, beautiful fall, friend Julie's boxer named Oliver, and our Xmas tree. Jason & Tony with their cat poopers at the end. Enjoy!

What would you do?

Oh....probably so many things. I think on an adventurous level, I would jump out of a plane, I would go skiing again (something I loved growing up, but at some point in my life I became fearful of it...so much so when I was in Aspen during college I got stuck with fear mid mountain that I had to have ski patrol come get me).
Professionally, I would travel the world to take pictures, and would figure out the financial aspect as I go. I would never fear what people thought, only that they treated me with respect.
In love...I would love freely and not be afraid to tell the one I love exactly how I felt all the time. I would make sure they feel beautiful and safe every moment of their day.

Join us in Lighting Global Landmarks (RED) this World AIDS Day - December 1st
December 1st is World AIDS Day and we’re illuminating the world’s most iconic landmarks (RED) to raise awareness of the goal of an AIDS Free Generation due in 2015. Last year nearly half a million babies were born with HIV. But with access to medication a pregnant mother can stop the transmission of HIV to her child. With continued funding to organizations like the Global Fund, the number of babies born with HIV could be zero by 2015 – creating the first AIDS Free Generation in 30 years.

This World AIDS Day, cities around the world will light their most distinctive landmarks (RED). From the Sydney Opera House to the Tokyo Tower, from the London Eye, to Cape Town’s Table Mountain, from Niagara Falls, to the Seattle Space Needle - the world will turn red to highlight the goal that by 2015 we can have a world where virtually no child is born with HIV.

Be sure to check and see if landmarks in your city are turning red. We’re asking people to Meetup there to watch and discuss how we can help create the first AIDS Free Generation. If you don’t find an existing Meetup to join, you can always create your own Meetup and help put your city on the map.

We hope you’ll be with us as we watch as the world goes (RED) on December 1st and help us make the possibility of an AIDS Free Generation a reality.

Here’s a full list of the landmarks that will light red on December 1st. A special thanks to Sister Cities International for their help and support during this campaign.
