I found myself on a narrow dirt road today, hugging along the hills of West Virginia. I don’t know if it was the worlds roughest road, but it was pretty rough. I had to chug along at a slight crawl trying to avoid whatever ruts and sharp rocks I encountered yet I still got tossed around in my truck. Throw in…

Pretty just didn’t work
I took photos of some tulips the other day and, although they are pretty, they look like every other tulip photo I have taken. Or every one that everyone else has taken also. I was still in the early spring mood and thought some nice colorful flowers would be nice to feature here. After uploading to my PC and viewing…
Black and white(house)
I’m posting this photo mainly to keep this site relevant and up to date. My photography has been painfully lapse the past few months and I find myself with the flu again this weekend. The third time I’ve been sick this year! Considering I could probably count how many times I’ve been this sick in the past say, ten years, on…
Home is where the art is
Since I’m still working on re-doing some rooms in my house, I’m still not able to get out and do much photography. I don’t think I’m missing much though since it’s still winter, albeit a mild one, and things still look pretty dull out there. Lately my weekends have been filled with either working in the house or going shopping…
A snowy day at the cemetery
In response to my last post….we got snow! Not a major amount but it was snowy and cold enough to feel like winter for a change. So in order to take advantage of it, I thought I would try to take some pictures while I was out today. I figured I would visit the city cemetery to grab some shots since it’s…
Maybe it’s just me
Every once in a while I come across a scene that just intrigues me. It could be something simple like a color or texture that first captures my attention and then I just have to stop and get a photo. This scene was one of those. I just liked the colors and textures at work here. Add the cross, the pink…
Bridges
Bridges – Utah Phillips and Ani DiFranco – “The Past Didn’t Go Anywhere” In honor of a really cool song by two talented artists. I spotted this bridge while traveling around today and thought it just had something about it. I’ve been past this bridge probably hundreds of times yet it just caught my eye today. I don’t know why and I’m…
Filtered flowers
Well, after yesterdays protest blackout, I thought it would be nice to return with some flowers. But because this is winter and there isn’t a flower in site, I had to look in my files for some photos I took in the past. I had spent a day last spring in a nearby park and took what seemed like a gazillion flower photos.…
Working photos – not art
I’m back, but not with any of my normal artsy photos because I’m continuing my house rehab. I finally started the nitty-gritty part of my room remodeling. The ugly part that’s no fun to do. Fixing cracks in the plaster, patching holes, changing electric, preparing for paint, etc.. I didn’t get any work done today because I had to take…
Like snow, man
It finally snowed! Considering this is winter, I’m considering that as a good thing. I know a lot of people like mild temperatures and no snow in the winter but I think things are just too ugly this time of year without snow. Mild temperatures just mean it’s going to rain all of the time and I’d rather have snow than…
