I am constantly amazed when I drive out into the country how many abandoned homes and barns are along the road side. Houses sit sagging, windows boarded over, shingles sliding off of roofs. It’s a shame too, because I can only imagine how nice some of these homes were in their prime. These are photos … Continue reading »
I was on Monmouth Street in Newport, Ky. today running some errands, camera in tow, when I came across this salon hair dryer chair (is this what it is called?) sitting on the sidewalk for sale in front of what I assume is a pawn shop. It was just very odd sitting there. I felt … Continue reading »

Today was busy. Early morning long run, nap, lunch, and then work. Along the way to work I managed a few shots of a neighborhood I often forget about, but pass each day. Continue reading »
What a difference a day makes. Temperatures fell to the upper teens today. My thought? Go outside, get some winter weather pix.
I thought a small park near where I grew up would be an interesting place to shoot — bright-colored equipment, gray skies, and ice. Continue reading »
