A few weeks ago the family and I took a short trip up to Randy’s in Lawrenceville, Georgia. Its a local nursery that carries all kinds of tropical plants and wildlife. They normally stay open only during the hot months – so check them out while you can!

They’ve also got this great butterfly house, which they do allow you to take photographs in. I would be kind to the insects though and suggest you not use flash while in the building. Its got some great diffused light from the cover they keep over the structure.

I enjoyed browsing around the nursery looking at all the exotic plants and aquatic life they had to see. Its a great trip to make if you live in the area.

Here are a few pictures from the trip.

Ive also got a few more images that are available in my gallery.

Things have just been insane lately. Currently I’m building up material for about three new photobooks, new material for gallery submissions and looking for new locations to photograph. In all of this managed to add  some new images to my southern landscape gallery.

Please visit my gallery to take a look at all of my recent work and purchase a print.

It was a perfect spring day here in North Georgia. The sun was shinning, there was a slight breeze and the temperature was a comfortable 80 degrees. So, the wife and I took a short day-trip to a popular tourist destination in the North Georgia mountains – Helen, Georgia.

This is a quaint little town nestled between the soft, sloping mountains and the gurgling  Chattahoochee River. Originally Helen was a logging town that later fell on hard times, the leadership turned it into a replica of a Bavarian village. It gets a ton during Oktoberfest but, from my experience just about any weekend that its nice, expect traffic.

Because of its location, with only one major road running through town, your going to experience traffic jams much like any beach-front strip. If you’re going to take pictures its great for street photography or possibly something thematic based on the Bavarian theme.

I’ve included a slide show below of some of the photographs I took. I hope you enjoy them!
