Not What Was Expected
An attempt at visual storytelling on the blog tonight. Enjoy.
Woke up this morning — far too early, but that’s another story — in Columbus, Georgia. I’d spent the night in the graciously-provided guest room of two of my very favorite people: Phillip and Neecee.
Okay, it was actually napping after doing a photoshoot and development tutorial [...]
(Derby) Party Details
Just want the photos? Go here. Otherwise, read on.
Photographed a Kentucky Derby Party for friends Pam and Dick Thomasson tonight. As expected — and as usual with the good folks in Macon — it was a great time. Thanks, Pam, for the invite.
Pam (in Derby Hat)
Several people asked me this evening how taking photographs at [...]
At Long Last,
…I’ve filled in the “about” page. Read all about, well, me.
Inundated (Self-Portrait 2008)
Lots of mistakes. Yet, somehow, still glad to be here.
As always, thanks for stopping by.
Tonight’s Cocktail Hour
…at Jay and Fernando’s was, as always, a great time. Many thanks to both gentlemen for hosting!
I’ve posted a brief gallery, but need to note: I was breaking in a new camera tonight, and thus was experimenting more than usual — resulting in a lower-than-usual “keeper” count. Forgive.
Couple of shots I really like, though, which [...]
More “Quickies”
A selection of things that have caught my eye recently:
Have you ever heard of a memristor? Get used to the term — it might well replace “transistor.” Seriously, this is huge. Ars on why.
A leftover from my book and graphic design days: Hefler Frere-Jones — aka Typography.com — on the ampersand. Nice.
Ars (again) on the [...]
More Updates. And…
…a new gallery of photographs! This time from Riverside Cemetery here in Macon, taken on a [another —Ed.] photostroll with Gerald:
Valentine’s Memorial
And,
Point Taken
Yeah, there’s some depth to those titles — it’s about the ex, Valentine’s Day, and a cemetery (long story). But it was still a good shoot, and I’m excited about uploading the rest, [...]
Macon in April
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 Tucker’s Bar-B-Q)
I love my car! (Just [...]
High Falls State Park
Went on a photostroll with Gerald this afternoon, taking in 100+ photographs at High Falls State Park, almost 40 miles north of Macon. Enjoyed it very much — and added a few items to the database:
Towaliga, Downstream
(Not) Another Redneck
There’s more — see the rest of the High Falls gallery.
For the baker’s dozen, a demonstration that [...]
Rest of White Lightning
Have been working back through photographs, and wanted to post the rest of these photographs on the road to catching up back gallery posts.
Especially love this photo of Trish:
Moment of Contemplation
Beautiful moment from a beautiful woman, perhaps thinking about some more beautiful things in her life. Glad to have caught it — thanks, Trish!
