Vicki & Chuck Rogers' photostream  

We intend to keep growing no matter how old we become, to remain
receptive to enlightenment, and to conserve the gifts of the earth.





Dogs love people unconditionally while people fight over little things.
We observe and photograph dogs for their inner and outer beauty.


...

Some people do strange things. We are lucky to record a few of them.

...

While the grass may be greener and the lakes more blue elsewhere,
there is always much to appreciate right where you are. Look around.



We photograph children to remind us to play nicely with all others.
We know there are people who do bad things, but fencing yourself in
isn't a good solution. Flickr helps us to communicate and learn respect
for each other. We really appreciate our international contacts.



Hang up your phone and join the fight against Nature Deficit Disorder!
Vultures may be waiting for you. Don't die without having lived fully.




We wish that you find your way easily and discover exciting places.

We appreciate you for sharing your photographs here on flickr and for viewing and commenting on our photostream. We recognize that few of our photographs meet the standards for technical excellence and that we often break the rules of good composition. We seldom go out for the sole purpose of photography and are not seeking perfection, only to please ourselves. We hope that you enjoy our pictures in the spirit they were taken.

Chuck has degrees in Art from Santa Monica College and The University of Texas. He annoys people by playing the accordion. He has worked in logistics, data management, and project planning for the aircraft and space industry for over 35 years.

Vicki is a superior mother and homemaker. She plays and teaches guitar. She is active at the Boulder Creek Community Church where she shares how to deal with strange husbands like her own.

We've been married since 1973 and have two grown sons. Our older son Kenneth Rogers is doing post-doctorate research at Emory University. Keith Rogers, our younger son, is composing music and performing on the guitar.
