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.

CSO Lumenocity

My photo buddy texts me yesterday and says "do you want to go to Lumenocity at Washington Park?" so of course I text back and ask "what is Lumenocity?" photo buddy's response was "OMG" I knew then that my ignorance was showing and just waited for the answer, "Lumenocity is the 2nd annual Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra event being held in Washington Park," you dumb ass....okay I added that last part in my head after I read his reply. The event doesn't actually start until this evening (Friday night) but the dress rehearsal was last night, thinking the event had to be free we headed on down to watch.

When we arrived we found out the event was free however, we still needed tickets to enter, so we walked around in search for a free place to sit, during this exhausting search we came across some local news channels.


Then we stumbled across the construction of the new tracks for the street car.


finally we found a spot and planted ourselves as close to the symphony as possible, which was right behind them and across the street. Yep not so pretty but all I wanted was to listen to the music anyway.

A Sample of My Day


I started my morning cruising down Rt. 10, just a sample of what I shot. The evening brought me to Washington Park.
 Not sure where this bridge was leading but I wasn't about to find out.
 I know, where are the cows? They will come later.
 Creepy!


Is this like the coolest kid? I love this photo.
I know I broke a rule with this photo but I had to get rid of the legs in background. Sometimes rules are made to be broken.
Yes I know the photo is blurry but I like it that way

Washington Park/12th & Elm, Cincinnati

What an unbelievable evening. I headed to Washington Park to check it out, I have to be honest that I was by myself so at first I really wasn't sure I was going to be comfortable, the moment I stepped into the park all that anxiety immediately went away. What a beautiful park, I will have to head back there during the day as part of the park is not well lit at night. Quite a few people were there, especially children, everyone was having such a nice time, a great place if you like to people watch. Free parking was easy to find, an underground parking garage is also available, of course for a fee. You will also find police walking through the park periodically along with maintenance crews hanging out as well.





 Underexposed, the lighting was a bit tricky

This little kid was so funny, he really wanted his photo taken, I couldn't get him to sit still so he came out blurry.

Around Washington Park



Oops, I'm bad, should have done a little straightening  on this one.
