A little Christmas tale as we enter our last week before Christmas.

in case you've been wondering...yes, Shooting Star Gallery will be back this year, for our 6th (7th?) year of providing a pop-up holiday gallery featuring local artists. Many of your favorites are returning:

- John Clement and Scott Butner, photography
- Kelci Kimura, pottery miniatures
- Roza Candles, candles!

With many more to be confirmed in the coming week.

We'll be open in our same spot -- 767 Williams Blvd, Richland (in the green Edward Jones building just up the hill from HAPO) opening Friday, November 28 and open 5 days a week through December 23.

My 2025 Calendar (this year, featuring extra proof reading! ;-) ) is available for online orders!

This year's calendar features the sights and people of the Richland Farmers Market. Each month features a full-page color image printed on high quality paper, and the calendar is printed in 8.5"x11" landscape format with lots of room to add your own special dates to those I've collected for you.

I expect to have my first batch of calendars available for delivery on or before October 25, and online orders should be in the mail by November 1 -- early enough for those of you doing your holiday shopping early.

They will also be available for purchase at the Richland Farmer's Market on October 25 ONLY, and at Shooting Star Gallery, at 767 Williams Blvd from November 29 through December 23.

The calendars are $20 ea; tax is included in the price. Online orders submitted between now and October 31 can use the discount code "EARLYBIRD25" (without the quotes) at check-out, and get $2 off the purchase of each calendar.

Debuting four brand new magnets today at Richland Farmers Market 9 am - 1 pm in front of Ethos Bakery and Greenies

Took this photo from Kerry Park in November 2018. If my calculations are correct (i.e., if I can read a map and an app correctly), the full moon should rise to the left of the Space Needle this evening at 9:15 p.m. and be directly over the space needle around 9:50 p.m.

Hiromi Cota -- don't know if you're in town today, but I know you've been doing lots of moon photos recently.

I suspect Kerry Park will be packed with photographers even more than usual.

Take a look at next Friday! The first day of Art in the Park - Richland, WA is going to be a perfect 86 F for a high!

trying an experiment for Art in the Park - Richland, WA this year.

Most years, I select photos to display/sell based on what I think people want. I'm often wrong, and end up doing a lot of special orders (which is fine) but most of my large print inventory remains unsold.

This year, I'm focusing on pieces that *I* count as among my favorites, and which I'd want on my wall if I had wall space in our little H house, on which to display them.

So when you visit my booth this year, what you'll be seeing are the images that I feel are the most "me"

Of course, I 'll still have more than 80 different local postcard scenes, and a dozen different collectible magnets of local scenery.

But I hope you'll come check out the wall art that I'll have available.

Just got my notification from Art in the Park - Richland, WA -- I've been moved! Still on Lee Blvd on the playground side, booth 48-49 this year -- a little more shade than the past few years, thankfully.

It's likely to be a hot one again this year, but you can beat the heat by showing up early.

See you in July. More details closer to the event!

As some of you know, I publish and sell a photo calendar each year. One of the things I enjoy the most about doing that is including all varieties of holidays, observances, and anniversaries -- serious, informative, or just plain silly -- on the calendar.

Unfortunately my 2024 calendar was a bit of a disaster -- errors in some of the dates were missed, in part because in my usual fashion I put things off til the last minute.

So this year I'm getting an early start, and I'm also, for the first time, involving my FB community to help with the nomination of dates to include on the calendar.

So if you've got a favorite holiday or observance -- please consider taking a moment to fill out the following form to nominate it for the 2025 calendar, which will be coming out in late October of this year.

Thanks in advance!
