Who the Heck am I

Welcome to my blog, I ran out of storage space on my last blog so instead of purchasing more space I decided to start another.

Photographing is one of my biggest passions in life. I've been a photographer for 20+ years. Although I have sold some of my work I consider myself an advance amateur. Which means I'm pretty good at pretending to know what I am doing. I arrived from Massachusetts to Northern Kentucky September 16, 2001. I hated it, for months I complained about living here, besides all the redneck jokes I would get there was nothing about Northern Kentucky I enjoyed, when I got over myself I dusted off my camera and headed for the hills, literally, I never fully understood what a beautiful place this is until I was given my first digital camera as a Christmas gift. In all honesty you couldn't get me to move out of this state.

Living so near to Cincinnati (I live right across the river) no other city can offer me more. Art museums, Cincinnati Zoo, symphony, theatre, aquarium, amusement park, Dozens of parks, one of the largest and most amazing firework display in the country and so much more. If you are from the area you know what I am talking about, if you're not, believe me when I say In and Around Northern Kentucky is worth the visit.

I know you will want to check out my other blog, I have shot photographs at the Behringer-Crawford Museum, Cincinnati Museum Center, Cincinnati Zoo, Creation Museum, Eden Park, Findlay Market, Fountain, Square, Krohn Conservatory, Rabbit Hash, KY, Railway Museum, Smale Park, Spring Grove Cemetery and much more.

Celebrating the Taft's 80th Anniversary

Today I went to Mainstrasse.......
To visit the Cock & Bull Pub.....
So I could find one of the Taft Museums Art pieces.
This is called "A Gray Day in Holland." 1899 By Jan Hendrik Weissenbruch (1824-1903)
Next to the painting the plaque reads...It may be a gloomy day, but traces of reds and blues are layered with the transparent grays. This painting both accurately reflects the soggy climate of norther Holland and becomes a timeless view of atmosphere, shadow and reflection such as we can see in the Tristate. Can you find the people on the left bank of the canal. Face all kinds of weather...
