A bike ride across the USA!

Sunny Peoria Monday morning greetings to all!

How’s this for a story, you’re a retired school teacher and you decide to ride a bicycle 3415 miles across the USA in 47 days. Sounds crazy doesn’t it! Washington, Il. resident (and friend) Champ Walker did this and I’m still amazed at what he was able to do. Here’s a link for the blog that Champ keep during his ride along with photos if you’d like to see what it was all about! http://walkerride.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html

A buddy and I teamed up on a photo of Champ and here’s one of the snaps from the shoot that I really liked!

Time to roll, it’s going to be a very busy week!!!! Thanks as always for checking out my work and I hope that you have a wonderful week!!!!

Stock Photography

Sunny Peoria Monday afternoon greetings to all,

One of the things that I’ve been working on this year is having images of mine on line that can be purchased for stock or prints as well. The first part is looking though all of these images (75 plus Terabytes) and it’s been daunting, but it’s coming along. At some point, I should have the first gallery of images up and those will be images of Peoria (that’s what I currently sell the most of).

Thanks as always and I hope that you have a great week!!!!

Vrooman Mansion and a cooking class!

Sunny Peoria Monday morning greetings to all!

I hope that you had a safe and wonderful 4th of July weekend and got to see some fireworks!

I was over in Bloomington, Il. last week for a shoot for Midwestern Family Magazine and we were doing a little food photography at the Vrooman Mansion. Chef Steven Sparrow was teaching a cooking class on New Orleans / Cajun cooking and as part of the class, the students get to eat the Chef’s different dishes from the evening!

Thanks as always for checking out my work and I hope that you have a great week!!!!!
