Like I think I mentioned in the last post, I’ve been really busy this summer. I’m not sure doing what – since my stack of photos hasn’t gotten much larger. So, I don’t think I’ve been doing enough shooting. Maybe its me just avoiding the heat. Its been a record setting summer here in the South, just awful.

I really hate heat. I mean, if its really warm, I just look for a cave to crawl in. Thats the biggest reason I don’t shoot as much as I want in the summer. The other reason, kudzu and weeds. I’d say over half my work involves the landscape – and when its covered in kudzu…well it can get a little boring.

Anyway, those are all great excuses, but they don’t mean a thing. I know plenty of photographers who don’t let that stop them, so no excuses.

I said all that, to say that I did get a couple days down at Jekyll Island, Georgia. Ironically it decided to rain there – which meant less opportunities. I got one evening – between storms – to setup my tripod and equipment on the driftwood beach, and snap some shots.

So, here I am – its going to rain soon, there are biting gnats everywhere and the tide is coming in. I managed to slap away the bugs, even after getting bit probably 100 times, and get a few decent images. By the time I left – the tripod and me are up to our knees in sea water.

So, take a look below. All of these pieces are available for purchase in my gallery. I hope you enjoy them!

Hey folks! Man, I’ve got so much going on I barely got this months wallpaper up in time.

This image was shot in a nearby “collectors” lot. To me it looks like all the collecting going on here is rust. Hope you enjoy this months image!

Over the last few days I’ve taken a trip over to an old site located in Barrow county, Rockwell Universalist Church. This historic old building was first organized in 1839 as the second oldest universalist church in the state of Georgia.

Its a great spot for some nostalgic/historic images to add to your portfolio or gallery.

I made this trip later in the afternoon with some pretty nice light. Fortunately the caretakers hadn’t cut the grass yet, which allowed me to capture a more rugged and abandoned look.

By the way, watch out for the bee’s that have made a rather large colony in one of the outside walls.
