This weekend, while many commemorated Easter and the start of Passover, I celebrated 25 years with the most wonderful Man. I was a different person when I first, begrudgingly, met him. A fixed-up suggested by a high school friend and I hated blind dates…
Little did I know how much you would open my eyes to a world of cherished experiences, never-ending adventures, exciting discoveries and a lifetime of love. From so many places, so many faces, so many memories, so much Love…

During an unexpected chance to experience Africa, a seed was planted. Nurtured by subsequent forays into wild places, this photographer was born.
Jacques Cousteau said “People protect what they love.” And we’ve all heard that “A picture is worth a thousand words.” So, enough with this. My photography says the rest. Thanks for listening.

Congratulations Sylvia, that is a pretty impressive milestone. And what a lovely gesture. All the best to you both, for another 25!
By the way, love this photo of you guys – gosh that looks cold!
Thank You Damienne! We’re rather impressed by such a milestone too… 25 and still going strong! ;-)
It was rather chilly… probably about –10F/–20C before the windchill, and the wind was whipping! But seeing we’re both rather camera-shy (at least shy being in front of the lens), it’s one of our favorite “portraits.” Many thanks from both of us!

Congratulations on this silver celebration. Wishing you many many more happy years and experiencs together.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful collage – what a wonderful poster it would make – perhaps for WWF!

Thank you so very much Kasia for your kindness and thoughtfulness! I wondered about others’ reactions to this without the happy memories we have of each face. Wonderful to know you enjoy them too! Now, that would be something if WWF shared your interest… something tells me we have a better chance going another 25 years first! No worries though, there’s nothing I’d like better than 25 more years together. ;-)
