In and Around Northern Kentucky 2.0: October 2013

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.

Heading to California

I know I haven't been around much, I've been so busy with getting my business up and running, all week I have been working on a web site only to find out that I made one critical error and decided to start over, UGH!!! The bright spot of my week will be seeing my granddaughter, I leave for California this weekend, unfortunately honey has to stay home and work, ahhhhhhh. So don't go away I'll be back shortly.

Happy First Birthday Allison!

My First House

I didn't have a paid shoot but a friend of Greg's that has a model home allowed me to photograph it. I have to say I just love this lens, very very little distortion and the lines are pretty smooth. I also used Photoshop Elements 11 to post process. I still need a little practice, okay maybe a lot of practice but for my first time out I'm pleased. So my question is this, if you saw this house up for sale, it was in your price range, would these photos make you want to go see this house?

Yikes!

I know that I have been absent from my blog but stay tune for the reason why.
