    Mother's Pride

    Beautiful shot! The innocence and caring demeanor of the cub contrasts nicely with the stolid determination of the mother. Well done!

    B-13# 2oz pike

    Nice pike! You guys have some good fishing up there in Minnesota. I used to fish the Susquehanna River here with my 17-foot Grumman Eagle canoe and a trolling motor. Walleye and bass were fun, but the biggest catch was from shore: a 42-inch pike caught about 11 p.m. on a half-dead bass minnow. Thought it was a submerged limb until it got near shore and began moving. Weighed only 11 pounds but it won the pike category in Dick's fishing contest that year. All the best...Bill

    One of the best captures I've seen in a long, long time. The composition is marvelous, and the figure on the right was caught at the absolutely best moment. The sign on the left provides an eyecatching framework, and the image's depth is icing on the cake. Awesome, Jack!

    Woman With a Plaid Coat

    Nice play with colors and structures in this image, and I like the view in the mirror contrasting with the starkness of the concrete passageway. Well done!.

  18. Participants in the Poor People"s Campaign rallied outside the U.S. Supreme Court in Washington during their months-long effort to persuade agencies of the federal government to take seriously the plight of the impoverished in the U.S. Comments and critiques are always welcomed. Thanks...Bill
  19. In the spring of 1968, shortly after the assassination of the Rev. Martin Luther King, thousand's of the nation's poor responded to the slain civil rights leader's call to action and marched into Washington, DC, to demand that their government do something about the country's festering poverty. Mrs. Augusta Denison, of Marks, Mississippi, seen here with three of her seven children, was one of the respondents to Dr. King's call. Comments and critiques are always welcomed. Thanks...Bill
  20. Dr. Martin Luther King was assassinated in Memphis on April 4, 1968, a short time before he was to lead the march into Washington of his Poor People's Campaign, a gathering of thousands who would live on the mall in an encampment called "Resurrection City" and visit government agencies to demand action against poverty. Here, Rev. Ralph Abernathy, who succeeded Dr. King as president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, escorts King's widow, Coretta Scott King, around the plywood "city." Next year, I was reminded recently, marks the 50th anniversary of the Poor People's Campaign. Time flies, but poverty, we can agree, persists. Comments and critiques are always welcomed. Thanks...Bill
