I decided to head downtown this morning and see if any new graffiti had been added to the small alley where the art work changes on occasion. Got down there about 7:00am and the sun was shining extremely bright, causing extreme glare off of brick and paint work, no matter which end of the alley I attempted to take the photos from. Plus, it was 20 degrees out there! Another deviation from my plan, were the large recycle bins (trash cans on wheels) and...

Purposely woke-up early (it was still dark outside) this past Saturday morning with the sole intent of going downtown and checking out the alleys for any new graffiti, and possibly get a few new images to post. Another venture spoiled by inclimate weather, due to heavy wind and rain!
I have since though moved further into the 21st century and just joined Twitter, and I can be found at https://twitter.com/waterwings2011 . Mostly you’ll just see...

There is a ton of stuff on-line about making yourself known on the web to further sales, or whatever your endeavor may be. I currently have a Facebook “page” and just signed-up for Twitter today, for my photography items, and those are linked to my website (greg-jackson.artistwebsites.com), but that seems to be just sitting still, with not a lot of visitors. I don’t spend a lot of time being internet socially-active, such as Facebook, Twitter, etc. ...

Have had the urge to get out on another photo excursion, albeit if only a local one, but cabin fever is starting to set-in with all this cold weather. Currently it’s 24 degrees, and has been cold all day with a slight breeze, making it seem colder still. I’m just not a cold weather type, and tend to hibernate, unless I have to absolutely venture out.
Thinking of venturing downtown again and checkout the alleys for any new/updated graffiti,...

If I had the monetary funding to splurge on high-end gear, and lots of it if given the choice, I’d probably depart the house with the back seat of my truck loaded to the gills (not really, but it’s a thought). However, all I have to do is grab my one small camera bag and I’m out the door ready to go. Traveling light has a lot of advantages, at least where I’m concerned. Not a lot of stuff to sort through once I arrive at a destination, as the one bag...

Ever participated in an organized Photo Walk? They can range from local events sponsored by a photography club, a group of friends on an afternoon outing, or on a much larger scale. On the large-scale format, there is one that is hosted by professional photographer Scott Kelby. Some of you may recognize his name as being associated with the popular PhotoShop program for processing images. Not going to go into detail here about the program, as there...

First entry of my blog, on a rainy, cold, dreary day in Western Kentucky. Not an ideal day to get out with the camera, so here I am at the computer again. Just checked the visitor log here at the site, and things are slow. My main emphasis of images include landscape, waterscape, urban, and rural scenes. Continually adding select images from my files, and hoping to get out with the camera once the weather is more hospitable, but snow is forecast for...

I’ve been asked on occasion if I go around randomly taking photos, or do I plan the “adventure”. Not sure if I would call it an adventure, as most of my images have been accomplished locally, within 5-6 miles of my home in a small town environment or rural setting. Not as if I were trekking to the far reaches of the globe, but there is some prep work to be done for my little excursions, even if seemingly minor in comparison to a long-distance...
