Beauty in the Park

Just a quick sample from today's session at Vulcan Park. Erin and Troy survived high winds and their fear of heights as we roamed the park grounds and got a skyline view of B'ham from the top of the Vulcan monument. All of the fun will be online next week. I'll be working on a broadcast project for the next several days but as the Gov. of California likes to say... I'll be back. ;)

An April fool

Well, Spring Fever has officially struck. I can no longer bear to be inside chained to the computer. I love digital photography but it is much more work after the shoot than the old film days. Anyway... about this time every year Birmingham looks a lot like Emerald City in the land of OZ. Everything is so green and lush that it hurts to look at it. Well it hurts if you're stuck indoors.

The past two weekends of horse shows in Tennessee and Alabama provided some much needed light therapy but really they just made me greedy for more outdoor action. Fortunately I have a sunset portrait session tomorrow with a pretty girl (OK, her fiance will be there too) so I'll be away from the computer all afternoon. And Saturday should be fun as I'll be shooting at Clairmont Show Stables for the first time in about a year. It's a beautiful place and the folks that run it are first rate equestrians and people. You can check them out online. www.clairmonthunters.com

Get out of the house and enjoy yourself, it'll be too %#@*&# hot before you know it.
