Earlier this month, a friend and I visited Lawrence County.  We came upon this great farm that begged to be photographed : )  More of the series is available at:  http://www.flickr.com/photos/foxchapelimagesllc/sets/72157636832409373/

Sundial  Bruin, PA

Photographed this barn during a trip in 2008, but passed it again yesterday on our way home from Clintonville, PA.   Remember thinking it was such a cool idea, although being changed for daylight savings time would not have been easy!

Thanksgiving Weekend in Ohio

Bright Leaf

Shed

Vista

Thanksgiving in Ohio is always a wonderful family time, but it is fun to get out for a rural shoot, too. This year we had every weather type possible: rain on Thursday, sun on Friday and snow flurries on Saturday. Fortunately, it was Friday that was captured on film! More in the flickr photostream.

Barn Side Sermon

Barn Side Sermon

Barn Door

A couple weeks ago my friend, Dan, and I went to Rogers, Ohio to visit the Friday Flea Market. We stopped along the way for some photo shoots. The Bowers' Market with their road side sermon was one of many highlights of the day. Dan talked with Mrs. Bowers as I photographed. We tasted and bought some of their yellow watermelons, sprinkled with glitter to deter the crows while ripening. Very sparkly! More in the flickr photostream.

Ohio Farm Series

Farmhouse

I have a great interest in photographing old things; especially things that might not be there very long. One of my recurring subjects is Ohio farms. Several of this specific series appeared in the Black and White at 56 project, but before that were on exhibit in the New Works Gallery at Silver Eye Center for Photography in July of 2007. The series continues in the flickr photostream.
