My Other "hobby"

Been pretty busy with work (my real job .... the one that pays the bills) and haven't had much opportunity to do any photography lately. My intent has been to also post some of my older work here. Somehow I got off track with that and hope to get back ontrack very soon.

In the meantime, I do make ink pens. I do it as a hobby, but also as a budding business. A big part of marketing the pens is being able to take pictures of them. So, I though I would post a fe picture of some pens.

I have found that a white background works best for most pens. It keeps the emphasis on the pen. I have played around with some other backgrounds though.

Memorial Day

These are a few pictures from the Andersonville National Cemetery. These were taken on May 30th at the annual ceremonies there to honor those who have given all for our country. Each year the Boy Scouts place flags on each of the over 18,000 graves that are there. The first three shots are simply quiet reflections of the price paid. The last photo while maybe not significant photographically is of the utmost significance in every other way. This is a picture of the vets in our motorcycle group. They were blessed with life and I am forever grateful to each and every one of them.
