Hailstorm!

Had a big storm move through in the past hour. It left it’s mark with some very large hail.

I fear looking at my Jeep in the morning…

Springtime

Was able to get out and enjoy some late afternoon photography last week.

Anticipation!

Spring Time is Soccer Time!

The soccer season began here in Hendersonville. My son has played with and against this young soccer star for years, and today they both played each other with the intensity of any World Cup player. They both did great, and had a lot of fun!

Got to play with my new Canon 7d and 70-200 IS II lens. Great day for son, friend, and Dad!

Silver Run Falls

This is a nice fall near Cashiers, NC.

Summer Father-Son Trip, 2011

Working through some vacation shots. The kids and I take a one-on-one trip at certain milestones. This past summer Donald and I headed to Myrtle Beach for a great weekend. Good times.

Reese’s Pinewood Derby Construction

All over the country boys are building their cars. Most start like Reese is right here!

He races Friday!

Amused…

Heather was a bit amused as I was playing with my new photo toys…

Beam Me Up!

The kids and I went to Carl Sandburg’s home this evening and I was playing with the zoom and flash a bit with them. I really liked this shot of Reese getting beamed up to the Enterprise!

Enjoy!

Grounded

The Asheville airport had a 50th anniversary celebration this weekend. I really enjoyed taking some shots of the airplanes on display. I like how the sky looked from the approaching storms.
