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.

Lewis & Fleming County Kentucky

Today both Greg & I wanted to take a look at some property down in Lewis County, KY just south of Maysville. 4 acres of land that varied from cleared to wooded with a creek running behind the lot. This is as far south as we have been to look for property, I will be the first to admit it, it was way to south for me. Gregory being from northern Georgia I thought had a thick accent, ohhhhhh noooooo, southern Kentucky is far harder to understand. I mean they even put a spin on "ya'll" that would make your toes curl. It did have its positives like the old house below that I so wanted to explore but I didn't want to rustle any feathers, Greg's feathers that is, {rolling eyes.} As we turned the corner to get a closer look at the old house.........

........we ran smack dab into my first, yes first covered bridge in Kentucky. The trip was so totally worth it. Soon things became a little ummmmm, odd.....


 ......See this walking bridge below? Right below it is a creek, mostly dried up right now, when the rains come I am sure it is quite the different story anyway, for now residence of this small community are able to drive through the creek to get to their homes however, when the rains come they have to use the walking bridge to get over the creek, if you didn't leave your car on the other side, well you're stuck. Different way to live.
 Welcome to Fleming County, this is Amish Country. See the woman in the buggy? She wasn't happy that I took her photo. I wasn't worried though we had more horse power then she did....bahahahaha.
