I was sleeping onboard an anchored sailboat in St. Vincent & The Grenadines when a gaggle of birds woke me into a funk. I came topside, to shoe away the birds and realized what the fuss was all about. This amazing sunrise. Thanks to the birds and my iPhone, this is how I do vacation photos.

Selfie Joy Celebrates Talent of Black Women
I am honored that BET selected to gift “Selfie Joy” to recognize women who have moved the needle in the music business at the BET Awards this year. My piece, “Selfie Joy,â€Â celebrates the unique strength, endurance and talent of Black Women as a whole and individually.
Thank you, Juliette Jones- Atlantic Records, Ethiopia Habtermariam -Motown/Universal and LaTanya Newt- BET for your examples of strength, endurance and talent. Your talent and greatness is not limited or defined by gender or color, but is enhanced by these attributes. You embody the woman who is Selfie Joy. Bravo.
