The Plant Shopper

When I spoke with this man to get his name and his hometown, I gave him the quick "I can't guarantee that this will make it to print..." speech and he says "I don't even care if it does." Well, sir, your ambivalence has landed you your very own blog entry.

The Mighty Ducks

I don't shoot a lot of nature pictures, but after stalking these geese for half an hour and nearly getting attacked (don't be fooled, geese are very protective of their young and can run pretty fast), I should have something to show for it.

Pennsylvania Railroad

I was on my way home from work at the Indiana Gazette when I got stopped at a railroad crossing. Luckily, I had my camera so I hopped out of my car and used my car door as a makeshift tripod.

IUP Graduation

Indiana University of Pennsylvania held summer graduation last Sunday. The ceremony goes by faster when you get to walk around the field instead of waiting to finally get your diploma-I mean... fancy folder with a letter from the registrar promising that your diploma will arrive in the mail in a few weeks (see above).

The Bairs in a Barn

Megan and Jeremie got married in August 2008 and moved into a cute little house in Homer City. Since then, they have always kept their door open for me and fed me dinner more times than I can remember. Thanks, guys!

Sames and Opposites

I ventured into a scrap yard on a Saturday evening. It wasn't trespassing because it's only trespassing if you get caught.
