Three years ago today, I borrowed my friend Gerald’s Canon Digital Rebel to get some “extra” shots from his wedding. It was from that experience, without any doubt, that I realized the potential of today’s digital photography. [And only three years ago. My, how we've grown.... —Ed.] Thus, it’s a great pleasure to use a [...]
Update, Monday 6 Apr: Finally, finally got to the parade photographs this afternoon, only to be besieged with some sort of “unsupported image format” error. For cryin’ out loud — it’s always something. Back ASAP. To call it a long week would be an understatement; aside from being sick last weekend, which completely upended the [...]
Falling farther and farther behind on posting. However, if you’ll forgive me, I’m okay with it. This Friday and Satuday, instead of finally finishing up the Maine photographs, perhaps as I should have, I let the camera take me out to see my good friends Phillip and Neecee. She is a doctoral student at Auburn [...]
Gerald and I headed up to Atlanta Friday, mostly to check a specific camera store for some look-and-touch you just can’t get online — and he hit a great deal on something he’d been thinking about for a long time. Thus, instead of spending the day wandering around Atlanta, we finished up our other stops [...]
Enjoyed a great photostroll with Gerald and Phillip last Saturday, starting with a quick stop in Preston, Georgia, followed by a longer-than-expected stop in Plains (home of President Jimmy Carter), Americus, and finally a shorter-than-expected stop in Andersonville. (We settled in just as they closed. Sheesh.) It was especially interesting to visit the Carter visitor’s [...]
Enjoyed wandering — and practicing — in and around Rose Hill Cemetery here in Macon. Got a few I like, too: Rose Hill Dec 08 – 14 Not the most original name, I’ll admit, but I didn’t feel like worry about naming each photograph tonight. Might revisit. Meanwhile, another: Rose Hill Dec 08 – 19 [...]
The Saturday after First Friday, Gerald and I enjoyed a photostroll in downtown Macon. Have to tell you: although not terribly long — 90 minutes, give or take — I enjoyed both revisiting downtown Macon in fall spendor and spending some photography time with a good friend. Thanks, Gerald. Some decent results, too. My favorite: [...]
Was in Columbus for a job last week — that, unfortunately, was postponed at the last minute. Will hopefully be heading back later this week to do that job. Meanwhile, Phillip and I took the time we’d planned on taking photographs to … take photographs. We wandered around downtown and riverside on an exceptionally pleasant [...]
Visited good friends Phillip and Neecee this weekend in Columbus, Georgia, and spent Saturday on a trip to Callaway Gardens. As usual with them, a wonderful time — but the Gardens were a highlight. Some nice photographs, too. The first six have been posted, including: Butterflies, Distracted And: Chapel Window, Looking Up More to come [...]
Keeping in mind that I completely skipped Cherry Blossom, a collection of photographs taken in April, 2008. Including this one: All Signs Point to Tucker’s And this one: Alley Behind Capricorn …next door to the just-announced ($29-million!) Capricorn Center. Also updated a couple of miscellaneous galleries, including the Automotive one: GTI in Sunset Light (at [...]
