Crawfish Boil

I got to attend and shoot a Crawfish Boil this weekend. The guy cooking was from Louisiana and did a great job with the crawfish. Here are a few shots of those delicious crawdad's. Just looking at these is making my mouth water again.

You can see some steam coming off these, they had just come out of the pot.

Snow in Birmingham

Well they predicted snow, and I knew it would come, but was skeptical that it would stick or accumulate. Well it did but it wasn't around for long. In Birmingham its is always cold enough for snow in January and February but rarely does the moisture come thru to produce snow. It always seems that it isn't until March that we can get the right combination of conditions to produce snow. And it was odd, only about a week before it was in the 70's.

Here are a few shots from around my house.

Mercedes Marathon

I got off my training schedule over Christmas and New Years with my travel to Louisiana and to Washington, so instead of running the Mercedes half marathon, I volunteered with the Birmingham Track Club at the 8 mile (and 21st mile for those doing the full marathon) water stop. I got to see a number of runners that I regularly run with at the Trak Shak on wednesday night, Todd, Kerry, Keith, Al, Brian, Heather, Scott S., just to name a few.

Here are a few photos that I managed to take in between handing out water and powerade.

The race leaders for the half marathon.

Infared photos

I was trying out some other camera equipment that has been speciality converted to captured infared light instead of the regular visible light. Here are a few photos taken with the camera on LSU's campus and a few in the yard.

Kids photos

I had the privilege today to take some photos of Christie's children. I went to her house to shoot, and got some fun shots of her kids playing on their teeter totter and on the swing set. They are really growing up fast and look so different every time I see them.

Welcome

Welcome to my new blog. I plan to use it share what is going on in my life with family, friends, customer, potential customers, etc.

I will also start posting some past photos to this blog, so check back regularly and look through the older posts. I will date the post near the date the photos were taken.

I am a Birmingham, AL based photographer who travels for work and please to Baton Rouge / New Orleans, LA about 30 days a year, and to St George Island, FL about 30 days a year. I also travel to Washington State regularly (at least twice a year) for about 20 days and occasionally to Alaska (every few years).
