Current Photo Friday theme: Market

Outdoor urban farmers’ market near St. Thomas University, taken September 2014. These markets are scattered throughout Houston as part of Plant It Forward (PIF). The organization empowers refugees to develop sustainable urban farming businesses that produce fresh, healthy food. PIF secures land, trains and mentors farmers, and facilitates sales to local markets. PIF farms are cultivated with sustainable practices that enrich the land and support the surrounding community.

Mattel model Abby, wearing one of my dresses based on a McCall’s pattern, in the Place d’Armes Hotel courtyard, New Orleans, May 2009. I was there for a literary conference, and writers had fun posing with my dolls.

I’m happily compelled to share this comment from my last week’s “Album Cover” theme, about a photo that I originally used for a Photo Friday challenge in October of last year. Marc is the person who started the Photo Friday site in 2002, and I told him his comment made my year.

Can I tell you, Becky, that this shot, when you originally posted it, *is* the shot that inspired the #album_cover challenge. It’s a great shot with such lovely storytelling in a single frame. Kudos! marc · Sep 19 2024

I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot this cover photo. Credit to Dorothy Cochrane.


This is a photo I shot in 1979. One of the children pictured is my nephew Josh, all grown up and a musician now. When he saw it, he said it’d make a great album cover. He then recorded an EP called Slow Down and…made it an album cover. =)
