Are You a Journey or Destination Person?
As a photographer, rushing rarely leads to creating meaningful images. If there’s one life principle I vehemently oppose, it’s hurry. Hurry and photography are seldom compatible. Perhaps, had I titled this post more positively, I would have chosen something like “Always Take Time to Smell the Roses.” I could delve into the theological aspects of…

A Photo Walk Down College Street
The other day, I had about an hour to take a quick photo walk down College Street in Auburn. I had hoped for more time, but it didn’t work out, so it ended up being a brief walk. My main goal was to capture some of the azaleas in town during this time of year,…

Last Faded Fall Colors
Well the frost finally killed off the last bit of the colors we had left in the yard, but some of the more hardy flowers are hanging on (the marigolds this year went crazy so we still have some of them). I’m really not sure how people live in colder climates, it’s already down to…

The Confederate Rose Marks the Last of Summer
This is the first year we have actually had a Confederate Rose (bush, plant, tree) in the garden and we waited all summer for it to bloom. But apparently they are the last hold outs of the summer and once they finally started blooming it was clear, the summer is on its way out. No…

That On Again Romance with Photography
One of the first pictures created was said to have been taken in 1838 by Louis Daguerre, which shows Boulevard du Temple, in Paris. Susan Sontag in her classic 1977 criticism On Photography said “to collect photographs is to collect the world,” and as a photographer I often ask myself, hasn’t the entire world been…

Post Process of Smelling the Roses
I finally had a chance to get out and “smell the roses” as they say. I’ve found it to be harder and harder over the years to just slow down and spend an hour or two walking through the property, there always seems to be something pressing that needs attention, and that is not my…

Flowers of Spring Have Finally Arrived
I took a break from my blog for a while, which always seems to be the case during the cold dark months of the year. Now that Spring is in full bloom here in Auburn things look so full of life and so colorful it just brings new inspiration to everything. Even though I took…

A Good Friday Feet on the Farm with John Deere
This is a very late version of Friday Feet today, but it’s technically still Friday. This late post is because We had an incredible, very humbling, Good Friday service today-tonight, (a post which will have to wait until tomorrow when I can get to the images). After finishing up a book review for Liberty this…

Most Beautiful Dogwood Blooms of any Recent Spring in Auburn
OK, so this will probably be the last post of the Spring showing our Dogwood bloom or our Wisteria, but I just love the colors so today it’s my Photo of the Day and my P365 :2012 photo [Day 114]. I don’t know if it’s all the rain we got over the winter or that I’m just…
