Midtown Walkabout

Recently my son-in-law Evan (@evan5ps, evan5ps.tumblr.com/, evan5ps.com,  led a photo walk in Midtown Atlanta near 14th Street and Peachtree.  Great turnout – 40-50 people.  So I joined up for a short bit and lavished in an hour or so of capturing street images at dusk while Katie kept me company.  Enjoy!

Harvest Season Signals

From a Labor Day visit to Columbia, TN.  Farmland and countryside abound.  Hints of autumn brim.

Tunes from the Tombs

Kathy and I went to Tombs from the Tombs, a fun music event in Atlanta’s historic Oakland Cemetery, a few weeks back.  That’s right – a cemetery.  It’s a great time, and funds go to helping maintain this incredible historic venue that goes back to Civil War times.  The heat was unusually mild, so it […]

Athens – Window Shopping and More

Shooting has been a rare commodity lately, but Saturday afternoon I spent a couple of hours walking around Athens, GA and the UGA campus in pursuit of a few photo opps.  Lighting was too harsh for broad scenics, but small vignettes were plentiful.  Getting the itch to shoot more.  🙂

San Franciscans on the Go

San Francisco Vignettes

More from my recent San Francisco trip.  Exploring is the city is fun enough, but finding small vignettes of interest is icing on the cake.  And of course, it’s almost impossible to post SF images without including another of the Golden Gate.  🙂

San Francisco Architecture

A recent business trip to San Francisco afforded a couple of walkabouts to capture unique perspectives.  Lighting was less than spectacular, but SF is a city with many, many compelling subjects under any circumstance.  Enjoy!  More to come ….

May The Odds Be Ever In Your Favor

John and Michelle, our good friends and fellow museum lovers, tag teamed with Kathy and me for a Saturday double date at the Atlanta History Center.  It is a treasure.  There are wonderful exhibits of Atlanta’s history, including a tribute to the 1996 Olympic Games, an area dedicated to Atlanta’s own Bobby Jones and his illustrious […]

Ponce City Market

This is one of THE coolest developments in Atlanta.  What is currently known as Ponce City Market in the old Fourth Ward began in the 1860’s Ponce De Leon Springs due to the springs’ alleged nature to cure.  In 1903 it became an amusement park, then a baseball park in 1907.  Sears, Roebuck, and Company purchased […]

En L’honneur

Re-posting two photos from years past in honor of the Paris terrorist attack victims.  My heart and prayers go out to the families of those murdered, hurt, and terrorized by such cowardly and hateful acts.  I am thankful to God for protecting my sister-in-law Dorine, and her sister Carol, who were there visiting.

Morning at the Museum

Kathy and I LOVE visiting the High Museum.  We try to make it a point to visit every quarter or so.  It’s world class with a steady rotation of top exhibits, and this Saturday our good friends John and Michelle enticed us with an impromptu invite. Enjoy!
