A walk at the lake
Saturday, April 5th, 2008
Most days when I’m not being lazy I go to a lake at the edge of town, not far from my house, and walk. I try to do at least 3 miles. When I’m getting in shape for a photo trip that involves hiking I’ll take that up to 4 and then 6 miles. There’s […]
Daughter
Sunday, March 30th, 2008
Now your children are your children,even when they’re grown.When they speak to you,you got to listen to what they have to say.But they all live alone now,they have TVs of their ownbut they keep on coming over anyway.And much as I love them,I’m always kind of glad when they go away.–Randy Newman“My Country” I don’t […]
Why I Hate Music on Blogs
Sunday, March 9th, 2008
A couple of my friends who have blogs that I read regularly have them set up to play music. I won’t name anybody…you know who you are. I hate encountering music when I’m reading blogs for a couple reasons. 1. I am almost always listening to music while I’m on line. When your music starts […]
Finally French PHOTO
Wednesday, March 5th, 2008
The January/February issue of French PHOTO magazine finally arrived here in Ohio. I’m pleased with how they ran my photo of Theda. The bled it off the bottom of the page rather than cropping it drastically as they have sometimes in the past. Not quite as nice as the half page they gave my photo […]
Back to Work
Thursday, February 28th, 2008
Well, I shouldn’t really call it work, since I love shooting dance so much. Over the next few days I’ll go to Athens, Ohio, to photograph a concert at the Ohio University School of Dance. This is their winter concert, the major production of the year. There will be guest artists and choreography by the […]
Shooting Sea Shells by the Sea Shore
Wednesday, February 20th, 2008
Say that 3 times fast… It’s been a day at the beach. Walk down a beach with a camera and eventually you end up taking photos of sea shells. At least I do at Edisto Beach. And, I guess it says something about me that what I do when I go on vacation is take […]
Back to Dance
Friday, February 15th, 2008
OK…the Dirty Show is over and it’s time to get back on track with the main direction of my photography these days…and that’s dance. In a couple weeks I’ll be back at Ohio University photographing their winter dance concert, which is their major annual production. Between now and then I’ll be visiting some warmer areas […]
Dirty Review and Close Encounter with Eric Kroll
Tuesday, February 12th, 2008
I’m back from the trip to the Dirty Show in Detroit. It was a really good time this year. After attending last year I decided the only way to really enjoy the show was to go with a group of friends. That’s what I did and I was right. Here’s the crew at the motel, […]

It’s off to the Dirty Show tomorrow. http://www.dirtydetroit.com/ Should be fun. Hope to see a lot of friends there. This afternoon I dropped off a few prints at a new gallery here in Dayton. If you live around here you might want to check it out. They are on reduced winter hours right now, just […]
Just some thoughts
Friday, January 25th, 2008
“Every day we should hear at least one little song, read one good poem, see one exquisite picture, and, if possible, speak a few sensible words.” –Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Good advice. I don’t know about the sensible words…that’s not so easy…but I try to do this whenever possible. My easy way is to read […]
