Day 43 : Lazy Sunday Fishing

Bay St. Louis, MS

It is finally cool enough for me to go out shooting again. Thank goodness. This was a shot that I got while running around in Bay St. Louis a couple of weekends ago. The fishermen were the best part. I just stumbled upon them and this great location.

Also, my Facebook Fan Page is up and running. Not to mention my lovely website. Both of which can be found in my links on the side of my journal. You should check both of them out.

Day 42 - Fin Fantasy

Taken: October 9, 2010

Biloxi, MS

Cruisin' the Coast 2010 was last week. I spent Saturday out taking shots of the cars. I am working my way through about 600 shots. This is one of my favorites out of the few I have edited so far. I love fins.

I am glad the weather has finally cooled down so I could go out shooting again. It is tough when the temp outside is 110 on a cool day. The next few weeks should be a wonderful time for pictures. There is a lot going on and I plan on doing as much as possible.

Days 35-41 : Battle of the Bands

Taken: June 19, 2010

Gulfport, MS

Sorry about the week long hiatus. I have been crushed under the weight of my summer courses. But, enough of that, this post is a week's worth of awesome. This weekend I went to a Battle of the Bands qualifying round at Nate's Sports Bar and Grill in Gulfport. The first two pictures are of Love Story's End. A friend of mine, Clint, is the lead singer and they are amazing! I specifically went to see them perform. With all of their headbanging, it was very difficult to get good shots, but I managed a few.

The second band, pictures 3-7, are of Storage 24. They are a band out of Jackson and I cannot wait to see them again. They are a rap/rock group with a touch of Linkin Park meets Rage Against the Machine. Very nice sound and a powerful performance. I got a bunch of shot of them since they played longer than most. One band backed out of the competition and the bar needed the bands to fill the time.

Both bands can be found on Facebook. If you like good music, check them out.

Day 34 : Meme and Papa

D'Iberville, MS

These are my grandparents, Meme and Papa. They are both in their 70's and have been married for over 50 years. This was taken while we were waiting to be seated at a restaurant. There is still a lot of love, as you can plainly see, and a lot of laughter. Now, I am sure they wish they could get some rest from all of the offspring. There are about 13 of us that are in and out of their house almost daily.

Day 33 : Initiating...

This is not a photo. I know. This is one of my photomanipulations from several years back. I wanted to do something SciFi in a series that I was working on. Each finished piece had a frame in it somewhere. Random frame in this one, but it is one of my favorites. The original file was corrupted when a hard drive of mine crashed, but you can see a larger example of it HERE

Day 32 : Feuilles Jaunes

Taken: December 14, 2009
Camera: Sony W180
New Orleans, LA

A random find as we were walking to the World War II museum in New Orleans. The color is not exaggerated, that is what caught the attention of my friend. She grabbed me and pointed. She was right. I could not pass up that shot.

Day 31 : The Thing

Taken: October 10, 2009
Camera: Sony a350
Biloxi, MS

This is the first and only Thing that I have seen at Cruisin' the Coast. It had such amazing colors and textures that I could not pass this shot up. There is a pretty strong VW community on the coast, so we always have Bugs and at least one Bus, occasionally a Ghia. Things just don't survive as well. I wonder if they will make another appearance this year.
