Dreamland BBQ

More than one person recommended this place to me when I was in Alabama, so I had to try it. The BBQ sauce was amazing at this place and the sandwiches were terrific. I wish I had tried the ribs, but I had to leave something to try the next time I'm in the area. If you get a chance, find a Dreamland BBQ and get some amazing southern BBQ.

John Pemberton and his mighty Coke

This photo was taken outside of the World of Coca-Cola museum in Atlanta Georgia. I thought this angle of the statue made for a great photo. It shows John Pemberton (the inventor of Coke a Cola) holding his creation.

Bald Rock

My goal was to capture a sunset, but what I didn't anticipate was the amazing view from the Bald Rock Trail in the Cheaha State Park. This is the highest point in Alabama with a breathtaking view of the state perched high above on some white (bald) rocks of the Appalachians mountains.

iPhone Photo Friday 7-10-2009

Today was a travel day and I found myself bending over to capture this photo while traversing from one plane to another. As I was bent over taking this shot (with my butt blocking the walk way) , the man that was waiting for me to finish said "that's a new one on me" as he walked by. I suppose I interrupted his travel for 10 seconds, but the shot was worth it. Sorry traveler dude, hope you made your plane.

One more from the 4th of July. Happy Summer everyone.

4th of July 2009

On the 4th I brought my camera and tripod to the Lake Orion fireworks display. I was hoping to get a shot with multiple explosions in the air, but due to budget constraints this year the fireworks only went off one at a time. So instead of getting the shot that I was hoping for (which often happens) I altered my plan and put the zoom lens on to capture closeups of the explosions.

Meadowbrook Fountain

On May 15, 2008 I took a photo walk at the Meadowbrook Mansion and discovered this awesome fountain. At the time I was alone and wish I had a couple there to photograph the fountain. So during Samer and Kelly's portrait session yesterday I just had to get this shot, and I am very pleased with the result. This is the shot that I visioned over a year ago, and it finally came to existance. That's the evolution of many of my photographs. I have many photographs stored in my brain waiting for the right moment to present itself.
