Cabernet Sauvignon / Merlot Blend
Via Flickr:
This wine marries two of the classic Bordeaux grape varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon offers character, complexity and longevity, while Merlot adds softer tannins and elegance, patterned after the same classic blend that distinguishes many fine chateaus of Bordeaux This red wine complements the heartiest foods, especially red meats, barbeque, savory pasta dishes, and pizza.

Zarkana by Cirque du Soleil
We recently went on a day trip to see Cirque du Soleil's ZARKANA at Radio City Music Hall in NYC. The acrobatic stunts were breathtaking and the stage design was grand and mesmerizing! As the show's director, Francois Girard, describes it, "Zarkana was meant to be a grand acrobatic show. I would call it an acrobatic rock opera."
Some fun facts about the Zarkana stage:
Some fun facts about the Zarkana stage:
- The largest of the three Zarkana arches has more than 150 feet of "snakes" which were created by carving the snake forms out of styrofoam, covering the 8- to 12-foot sections in plaster to create molds, filling the molds with resin and hand-painting the molds.
- The two Eagles' head bandstand that house the musicians on either side of the stage are 28 feet tall and weigh more than 9,000 pounds each.
- More that 3 million pixels make up the permanent LED wall that measures 90 feet wide by 40 feet tall. The LED arch is composed of 118 custom-built panels.

2011 Moonlight Memories Car Show (Part I), Hatboro, PA
More than 500 specialty cars and trucks rolled into Hatboro for the 2011 Moonlight Memories Car Show. The free event draws between 500 and 600 show-quality cars and trucks and was held from 5 to 10 p.m. with cars lining both sides of York Road.
These are some of the images I shot that afternoon. I hope you enjoy viewing them as much as I enjoyed capturing them.
