Why we wear gloves
I know a lot of people that do outside chores without gloves. Today, I’d like to share why we wear gloves (and, yes, I was). These are two completely unedited photos captured with the iPhone 4. The abdomen of this guy is about the size of a dime and that orange is almost a blaze/hunter’s…
American Sweetgum
Before moving, I never really knew what a sweetgum tree was. I know I’ve seen them before and know I’ve seen their spiney little “fruits” that they drop but never knew that it was a sweetgum tree. Now I have a massive one in front of my house, so I doubt I’ll ever forget. It’s…

Rainy Day Tobacco
After one of the walks around our new “block”, I was surprised to see that we have some tobacco growing near us – right next door. Not an uncommon scene around Lancaster County really, but these rows are tucked in between corn fields. Nicotine corn? Hopefully not, but I have been really craving corn this…
Colored Pencils
Playing around with some lighting gear… Usable for stock? I had several variations of layout, but liked the circle and straight line the best…
