Angela and I attended a small family gathering for Sofie’s first birthday at a Douglasville Playground. I only had a few minutes to shoot before I lost the light completly, but I feel like I captured some young faces having fun.

Happy 1st Birthday to Sofia!
August 29, 2009A Visit with Dad.
August 27, 2009I drove up to Highlands North Carolina for a few days this week to be with my father for a couple of days. He was due in Asheville on Wednesday for some minor surgery on his one remaining kidney. Despite a full day at a hospital and lots of driving, we were able to enjoy some quality time with each other and I always enjoy being in the mountains breathing the thin air. It was also a very emotional time for me, dealing with an aging father who is fighting a new ailment is not easy for a first timer.
A Hike Around Boat Rock
August 24, 2009Wade and I needed a place to get way from the city but not drive too far to shoot some nature photos. I decided on Boat Rock since I hadn’t been here in years and this was Wade’s first time. This a local rock climbing spot with many tough bouldering problems. The rock it’s self is very corse and sharp, extremely tough on the hands. Although there was no one cling while we there, we still got to enjoy the forrest and huge rocks around us.
James Pullum and Cobb Fire 4
August 23, 2009Angela, Mark, and I went to visit James at his fire station for a quick tour. It was a slow sunday which was perfect for showing us all the tools and toys the Cobb Fire Department use. James took his time, opening all the compartments on the truck and giving us demonstrations or examples of how each tool worked. During our little tour the “tones” came over the radio and everyone had to leave to check out a possible house fire. Although not much else was going on it was good to see all the shiny trucks and gear that the brave men and women use everyday. Special thanks to the folks at Station 4 for letting me wander around with the camera.
