| Venture capitalists and intrigued enthusiasts gathered for a private showing of Kirk Hawkins new toy, the Icon A5 flying machine. Not only does this ultra-light aircraft navigate the air with style, but it also lands on water and can be towed home on the back of your car. Icon has created the ultimate must-have in luxury sport flying. It's even listed in the Neiman Marcus Christmas catalog. |
| The inside of the A5 is very straightforward and simple. |

| Working with Make-A-Wish is one of my favorite things to do. A few weeks ago I photographed a little girl whose wish it was to take horseback riding lessons. Make-A-Wish Foundation hooked her up with a beautiful and gentle horse named Simon. |
| Her expressions were so adorable. |
| This is Simon's owner who gives lessons in the back of her Wayland home. |
| Her Mom joined us for a photo. |
| ** Most photos were taken with the Nikon D3. I'm a long time Canon guy but wanted to try the D3 (which I liked very much!) |

The Fraxa Research Foundation was started by three parents of children who suffer from a genetic disorder called Fragile X. Since 1994, Fraxa has donated over $17 million dollars for scientific research. Doris Buffet, President of the Sunshine Lady Foundation and sister of Warren Buffett, received recognition at the Fraxa gala for donating $2 million dollars to the charity.

In 2007, Buffett teamed up with Fraxa to create the "Doris Buffett Challenge" honoring to match all donations.
Buffett's Sunshine Lady Foundation consists of 150 "sunbeams" across the country who each allocate $10,000 a year to the less fortunate. "We never give a handout," the foundation's brochure says. "We give a hand up." |
