The Month of July means..... Circus



Well, with the first day of July coming tomorrow, that can mean one thing. The circus is in town.
I spent Monday and Tuesday at the circus building taking photos of each act for the Peru Tribune Circus Edition. While the group photos are fun to shoot, I picked up my camera and looked around for some feature photos.
I took some interesting angles, while messing with my newly purchased 14mm, I shot the photo above with my 17-55mm.
As some many know, the circus building has no clean backgrounds anywhere. There are always a light, wires, mats, flags, banners or something in your backgrounds. I really like the photo above. It has the least amount of clutter in the background.
I hope to shoot some more photos during circus week. Hopefully I will have some more photos to share.

Hot Air Balloon



As a part of the Huntington Heritage Days, a hot air ballon night glow took place last Saturday evening.

I've had the pleasure to ride in a hot air balloon (which is cool) but have never seen a night glow. If you have never seen a night glow, I would suggest to go see it. It is pretty cool.

Colorful balloons and the night time sky made for some interesting photos.

Enjoy!!!!





Rupp/Brown Wedding






I've been told by a number of friends that I should start a blog site.

Well, here it is. I'm not sure how this is going to work. I'm not the greatest with the English language nor with typing.

My hope is for this blog is just to bring a little smile to those who read it. I will try to update on a regular basis.

This first blog is about the Rupp/Brown wedding. What fun I had with this wedding. I truly enjoyed capturing memories for this couple. The two youngsters were such good subjects to work with. That made my job real easy.

I'm not sure who the ring bearer was but he was real darn cute!!!!!
