Picture of the Week
A picture a week from around town, or around the world!
Cactus Under the Stars
It's a Picture of the Week two for one! 🙂 I mentioned last week that I had met my friend Allen out in the desert earlier this year so that we could photograph the Milky Way. Our skies here in the eastern United States have just been destroyed with light pollution,...
Late Light in the Desert
Alright, this week I'm kicking off my series of images from the Arizona desert! It's not often that I get to photograph with friends when I'm out of town. It does happen every so often, but generally speaking I'm by myself. This trip was an exception however. My...
The Blount County Courthouse at Sunset
My good friend Tom Vadnais often talks about taking pictures "around your home" or in the city where you live. For practice, yes, but also to not miss the beauty that you're constantly surrounded by. I'll be honest and say that when I think of taking pictures...
Rhododendron in Bloom By the Stream
This week's Picture of the Week is a special one for a number of reasons. First, the picture is one of my favorites from the year so far - I absolutely love this image. Typically when I think of stream scenes, I think of the fall, and this image is a great...
The Milky Way and Fireflies at the Dan Lawson Place
After spending a good number of weeks on images that I've captured abroad, I thought I'd take a break from the travel images and share some stuff I've captured around here in East Tennessee. Sometimes I get caught up in the beauty found elsewhere in the world that I...
Ponte City – The Core
Last week I took some time to setup the story of this week's Picture of the Week by talking about the neighborhoods surrounding the Ponte City apartments, and the sketchiness of the situation to get both last week's shot and this week's. I left it with the question...
Ponte City – Berea and Hillbrow From Above
Alright, so this week's Picture of the Week is really a setup for next week's picture. I enjoy telling the story of my photos, but I'm also a firm believer in the fact that an image has to stand on its own - meaning the story doesn't make the photo, but is rather...
Cape Town at Sunset
Alright, on to the cities! I've commented many times that I'm not a wildlife photographer (but you can't come back from Africa without pictures of animals... right?), so I'm happy to be back in my comfort zone this week with landscapes and cityscapes, and in Cape...
Meeting the Cheetahs at Ashia Cheetah Sanctuary
For those of you that know Holly and I personally, you'll know we're cat people. We love cats, watch cat videos, have a pet cat... Holly even made me cat pajama pants (I should have stopped short of that one, huh?) last year as a joke, and I wore them till they fell...
The Elephant and the Lions
Last week's image and this week's images were all taken at the Aquila Private Game Reserve, which Holly and I visited back in April. I ended up with multiple images from there that I wanted to share, but rather than drag out South Africa for basically the rest of the...
