The Brick and Cades Cove

July 13, 2014

I wanted to add this because I wasn’t sure if this camera could take any pictures. It is an Argus, but most photographers know it is “The Brick”. I took it on my trip to the Smoky Mountains to see if I could develop film that would come out. This was by far the best of the roll and was really underestimating the camera. It is a fun little thing to shoot but I did make the mistake on one of the frames to do a double exposure which I was warned might happen. I can’t wait to try it out again.

Green Fern

July 10, 2014

I started to take walks in the morning at a local park for exercise and also just to wake me up. It has been rewarding as they seem to be better days. I already get up early why not go out and enjoy it. Walking down one of the trails that we take usually it goes through the woods where there is a little creek and this area of lush looking green ferns. It was 6:20 in the morning and just enough light for a picture.

Walking to Grotto Falls

July 6, 2014

My Girlfriend and I recently went to Smoky Mountain National Park to some travels. It is truly a beautiful park and I took some film with me. I wanted to post this image because it came out kinda interesting. I don’t remember taking it but I can clearly tell I shout with a wide aperture. We were heading to Grotto Falls off the Foaring Fork Motor Trail which is totally worth going down. The falls were nice and I enjoyed the hike.

Tired Kitty

June 25, 2014

My kitty gets tired at the time of day that you are willing to play with him. He is always up and about at 2am but not in the afternoon when you are home and can give him the attention he always needs. He is still a good cat and loves his “kitty hammock” that we got for him. I shot this in the afternoon inside wit hthe light coming in from our deck door.

Suzuki FA50

June 22, 2014

I have an old Suzuki FA50 Moped which has a 49cc 2 stroke motor. It is a fun little bike to ride around on but needs new tires for sure. It is still shinny and has a good look overall other then the front light bent from a crash. Was handed down from the grandfather and if I ever move closure to the city, I will ride it around for sure since it has a max of 32mph. This photo was taken in my parents backyard on a nice day.
