Arlene was a prolific contributor to the Meteorite Picture of the Day. Her photographic techniques were varied - whimsical, unusual, artistic - and her photos were always well done. Check them out at

Thank you, Arlene, for your support of the MPOD. I will miss your photographs but I hope others will step up to fill the gap.
