Obon is a Japanese Buddhist custom celebrating a time in which ancestors and their sacrifices are remembered and appreciated. The Oregon Buddhist Temple held an Obon festival this past Saturday. Paper lanterns inscribed with a loved one’s name were strung above the dancers and watched over the celebration. This brings back some very fond childhood memories for me.

Hi There!
I'm very excited to explore the multi uses of this site.
Being a dynamic medium and not static like a traditional website, this blog will allow the viewer to see my latest work in the specific category of their interest simply by sorting the post by "categories", e.g. kids, events or furry BFF's.
Some posts will be educational in providing a little insight as to how some of these images are created, my thought process, etc. And maybe "too much information (TMI) but some posts will share a little glimpse into my interests outside of photography such as wine, food and giving back to the community.
Would love to hear your feedback!
Enjoy!
Joni
