Every Day’s a New Day
Bozeman, Montana
2026
We’ve been living in this house most of the year for the last 12 years and the other day was the first time I noticed this abstract shadow pattern on the stairs when just the light at the top of the stairs was turned on at night. I guess sometimes you just have to be in the right frame of mind before you can appreciate what’s around you from an artistic standpoint.

Democracy Chained
Wichita, Kansas
2003
This image actually appeared as a POTD back in it’s early days in 2003 when but a handful of people had access to it. I repeated it as a POTD in 2010 with the following comment:
“[This image] has been coming to mind lately as I read about all the efforts to stifle voting in the upcoming national election. Voting rights are or should be sacred in this country and what is happening right now is a scary omen of what may be to come. Folks, this is no way to run a democracy!” (Little did I know how true that statement was to become the following January.)
Now some six years later, this image again comes to mind as the country faces not only a renewed assault on voting rights, but also a whole host of other attacks on the ideas and principles expressed in the Declaration of Independence 250 years ago. As a consequence I’m am truly ambivalent about whether or not celebrating this milestone for the country is what I want to do. Certainly what I said back in 2010 holds even more true today and is worth repeating. Folks, this is no way to run a democracy!
