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.

A Day at the Races - Turfway Park

Have you ever had a day that no matter how hard you try to do something it just doesn't work out? That is the way I felt today. I wasn't the only one, Greg couldn't even pick one winner today and I couldn't figure out my settings to save my life.

 I have ordered a graduated neutral density filter which should be here soon, that will help a lot with my blown out skies like above and below.








Blurry, blurry, blurry. I can't expect the horses to be in perfect focus, I didn't expect the photos to come out this blurry either, the legs I can understand being blurry because of the slower shutter speed  of 1/60th. I was at least hoping to get the horses upper body a little more in focus. Not giving up.
