Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. NEWDM_150110_01.JPG: In Your Face! Doug Marlette and the Art of the Editorial Cartoon: For the 35 years that his work was featured in newspapers across the country, Doug Marlette's cartoons were unflinching. He confronted popular political figures and powerful religious institutions. No culture, foreign or domestic, was safe from his pen. He received death threats and angry rebukes from his targets, but he never backed away from controversy. Marlette won numerous awards, including a Pulitzer Prize in 1988. He was killed in an automobile accident in 2007 at age 57. This retrospective is drawn from Marlette's long career -- which included stops at The Charlotte Observer, The Atlanta Constitution, Newsday, the Tallahassee Democrat and the Tulsa World. This exhibit was made possible through the generous cooperation of Melinda Marlette.

2015 photos: Equipment this year: I mostly used my Fuji XS-1 camera but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000. I retired from the US Census Bureau in god-forsaken Suitland, Maryland on my 58th birthday in May. Yee ha! Trips this year: a quick trip to Florida. two Civil War Trust conferences (Raleigh, NC and Richmond, VA), and my 10th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including Los Angeles). Ego Strokes: Carolyn Cerbin used a Kevin Costner photo in her USA Today article. Miss DC pictures were used a few times in the Washington Post. Number of photos taken this year: just over 550,000.
