In and Around Northern Kentucky 2.0: Fernald Nature Preserve +

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.

Fernald Nature Preserve +

As promised I headed out to the nature preserve, I was extremely disappointed for two reasons, 1. Birds were just about non existent, 2. I hate to say this because I know a lot of thought and planning went into creating the preserve but it kinda was lacking, I really wanted more scenic views, instead out of the 4 viewing areas two were just alright, the other 2 are really not worth mentioning. I didn't take the time this trip to visit the visitor centre, I will next time. I will return, I believe I will wait for a nice early May day when a lot of the birds are back, not willing to give up the possibilities. As for this trip on a scale of 1-5 I'll have to rate it a 3, barely. Oh I forgot to mention and I'm not sure if Greg meant this as a compliment but when I got back home Greg said I looked different, I was glowing.....lmao

The last two photos were taken on a little trip back to Stewartsville, KY.

Tomorrow the weather is suppose to be cloudy but in the 60's, thinking about heading to the city.
