Some of you have been following my progress since last year with my self-published book of essays, "Running with Stilettos", and noticing that on my website, I've taken to posting digital photo spreads more often.  What can I say, since buying a digital camera a few years ago, I've become taken with the immediacy and emphemeral nature of the art form, a quick and happy contrast with the torturous and lengthy process of wrestling with words and trying to get them "right."  With a camera, you've either got the shot or not, and there's nothing you can do about it later!
 
At any rate, this is an open invite to stop in at a four-week shared art show of my nature photographs at a little cafe on Chicago's Near North side, called the Loose Leaf Lounge, at 2915 North Broadway.  I'll be sharing wall space with an artist named Nuria McNeal, our show opens the first weekend in March.  If you're in the neighborhood, please stop by--the cafe is small but lively, and the sandwiches are delicious works of art in themselves.  I hate to leave a crumb of the "lemon pepper tuna" behind on the plate.  I hope to have some copies of the book for sale down there during the art show, but that's still entirely up in the air.

Ciao for now!
