While one pooch pic does not a professional pet photographer make, this one came out so nicely I think I'll consider adding Dog Documentarian to my growing list of skills. I kid, of course -- dogs are way harder to shoot than people. And possibly less likely to hold a grudge if they don't like the final product.

Also, you can't give a person a milk bone when you're done.

Name this plant

The U.S. National Arboretum is one of my favorite local nature spots; ironically, not easy to get to if you don't have a car. The Arboretum is definitely one of this city's best kept "secrets."

Just about every flower, shrub, and tree in the Arboretum usually has a label nearby denoting the particular species and popular name. However, I failed to notice the one near this giant purple dandelion looking thing. Anyone have any idea what it is?

For now I'm calling it "Giant Purple Dandelion Thing."

Chucktown

Spent the weekend in Charleston. My first time there -- a beautiful little southern town...until nightfall, when it turns into a mecca for drunk college kids. Highly recommend it if you haven't been. Only had a few hours to look around (was actually there to shoot a wedding -- more on that later), so didn't have a whole lot of time to explore.

Lunch recommendations: Groucho's Deli and Sticky Fingers. Both happen to be chains, but what the hell -- food was good (ribs at Sticky Fingers were awesome).
