Light Musings

All good things eventually come to an end

And so it was on Tuesday, August 31st that I completed my final day as photographer for the Contra Costa Animal Services Department. This was an interesting and sometimes difficult job, but always rewarding. During the past 14 months I photographed over 4400 animals. I also met a lot of very dedicated staff that work very hard to take care of the animals that flow into the shelter.

However, it is time for me to move on. I am anxious to do more traveling and work on other areas of art and photography. And so I bid adieu to my friends, both two and four legged, at the Martinez shelter and wish them the greatest success. I especially want to thank Cindy Smith and Glenn Howell for their tremendous support. We will hopefully cross paths again in the future.
