Happy 4th

Happy 4th of July.

Dairy Farm

I have been working on a story about a dairy farm and the family that operates it. It is in the very very very early stages but I like what I'm working with so far.

Back again

Waterloo is familiar with me but I can't help but feel as though I don't have a clue about it. I've come and gone from this place a couple times now but for some reason I keep coming back. Maybe it's the only group of settled friends I have or that I feel like I never really won. Whatever it is here I am again... Better or worse sometimes I don't know.

Something better than nothing...

I'm moved back to Waterloo now and have started school. I haven't had much structured shooting just the carrying around of my camera hither and thither. Something from the other night. I made it black and white because John Tully is my hero and he always does that to everything always...

Good bye to Maggies Farm

Today is my last day. I'm going to miss Bay City a lot. The people I met here were amazing and I've made a lot of life long friends. I've had an excellent time working at the paper and the staff here was very helpful. This is a thank you to everyone who gave me their time and allowed me space in their world.

SNOW!

We are getting killed by a major winter storm right now... We might get 10 inches!

ELECTIONEERING

As some of you may know I have my fair share of vices. One of the worst being that I'm a political junkie. Election season is like Christmas for me. 2008 was a real high for me and I'm afraid it's going to be hard to get my fix from here on out. Anyway a few images from my coverage of the Democrats in the Bay County Mi area.

Rep. Dale Kildee, D-MI right, holds up a box of Twinkies gifted by Tony Pawelski, left, during the Democrats election party Tuesday, November 4, 2008 at the UAW Hall on Wilder Rd. in Bay City. Pawelski, Chairman of the Bay County Democratic Party, knew of Rep. Kildee's weakness for the snack cake.
