Super Bowl Sunday (this week) has become an important secular holiday.  It’s a time for friends and family to gather, either at someone’s home or what beer commercials used to call “your friendly neighborhood tavern.”   There is so much less home hospitality than there was when I was a kid. 

Hockey is one of my favorite sports to photograph. I also find it very challenging to shoot from ice level. So, for the entire season up to this point I've mostly photographed hockey from a high position.

A double-feature silent movie with live music accompaniment filled the house at the Wilton Town Hall Theatre yesterday. I hadn't heard much about the star of the films, Douglas Fairbanks, except that he was the first ever "action star" of the movies.
