Photography at Southern Museum of Flight
I finally made it over to the Southern Museum of Flight. I have lived, worked, and traveled around Birmingham for the better part of my life, but had never been over to this particular museum, even when I worked at the Birmingham Airport. On Saturday I had some uncommitted time in Birmingham and I decided…

iOS Panorama Beauty of Auburn’s Jordan-Hare Stadium
There is nothing quite like a stadium full of 87,451 fans creating a sea of orange and blue. It actually doesn’t happen all that often, and it’s even harder to capture all 87,000 people in one single photo. My expectations for the rest of the season are very low at this point, but that’s ok,…

The Jule Collins Smith Museum of Fine Art :: Photos

The Dog Days of Summer, Version 2010
The only thing that seems to like the fact that the heat index has been over 100* (much of the time over 110*) this summer is our dog, and the Lantana. I couldn’t think of a better shot for “dog days of summer” than Ebby sitting on her heated bed. The dog days of summer…

Fog on a Never End Cycle of Rain in the Southern Winter
Fog on a never end cycle of rain in the south in the winter. You can see the puddles around the tree swing, and the dreariness in the air. Somewhere Spring is coming.

Closeup Snowflake Photo on a Frosted Window
I started off today with a beautiful creation by our Creator that I am not all that thrilled to see when I get up. 20* Frost. I took this photo this morning when I went out to get in my truck. We live in the deep south and I like to think that our winter…

Cahaba or Shoals Spider Lily in Full Summer Bloom
We had a nice weekend of hot weather, but it finally started raining. We have been in such a drought that any rain at all is a welcome site. After the rain cleared out our unknown bulb started blooming, rapidly. We were given this and told it was a “4th of July plant” and it…
