In March 2008 – after completing the first draft of my Townsend Brown biography, I took some time off and drove the length of the Natchez Trace, from Nashville to Natchez, Mississippi, and then continued down The Great River Road to New Orleans. Oak Alley is one of the stately antebellum homes still standing along that River Road, so named for the parallel rows of 200+ year old oaks that line the walkway to the entrance.

I saw another photo of Oak Alley on Instagram and decided to post one of mine as well.

Blue Angels Over Smyrna

I dunno, there’s just something about saying “Blue Angels” in the same sentence as “Smyrna” that I find amusing.

Some of the Photogang spend a hot, sunny Sunday standing on the tarmack of the Smyrna Airport shooting all kinds of aerobatics at the Great Tennessee Air Show. More in this Facebook album.

Maybe I should put this stuff on Flickr first…?

Is This Thing On?

June 12, 2014

Another observation from Ashley Segroves studio… this Post-It note was covering the camera on her new iMac Apparently somebody told her that The Authorities can turn your computer camera on without you knowing it. So she’s not smiling…

What to do if you think the #EnnEssAy is turning on the camera in your computer.

Robbie Quinn: On Assignment

June 12, 2014

I went to a gathering of Nashville-based photographers last week. The event was hosted sponsored by 12th & Broad and hosted by Ashley Segroves at her fabulous studio in downtown Nashville.

We were given assignments: a word on a slip of paper. Mine was “flowers.” Robbie Quinn drew “sharp” – so he placed a pair of scisccors in a refrigerator and photographed that… and I photographed Robbie…

David Hume’s Golden Toe

June 11, 2014

Digest, photography, travel

David Hume is regarded as one of the principal authors of the Scottish Enlightenment.

This statue is one of the most prominent fixtures along Edinburgh’s Royal Mile, the cobblestone street that winds from Hollyrood Park to Edinburgh Castle, thru the heart of the “Old City.”

Visitors rub the big toe of the old sage’s foot, so that over the years the green bronze patina has been rubbed away to reveal one big, shiny toe.

Visitors to #Edinburgh’s #RoyalMile will rub the big toe of #Enlightenment philosopher @DavidHumeQuotes statue for luck.
