Towering over us

Again with the radio towers and wind mills? Yes. Always yes. I can’t help it that I’m drawn to these simple, giant structures. Water towers, radio towers, powerlines, windmills… I like them. There’s just too much visual appeal for me to resist. I love making photos with a lot of negative space and simple subjects. It’s unintentionally become my personal style of photography, and that feels good. This is not to say that I’m the only one who shoots this way. Its more of a self revelation. Like, “hey… I’m taking these specific style of shots, intentionally, and with some regularity these days”… I think I’ve developed a visual preference; and that’s cool to me!

Abandoned Farm School

It was bitter cold today, so I decided to spend it inside. Ha! It has been ages since I’ve been able to get out with my camera and create some images. Fatherhood is wonderful and takes up nearly all of my time (And I love it), but I really enjoyed myself this morning, stomping around these ruins wearing an N-95 mask.

You can view the full gallery of this morning’s images here.

South Otselic Fish Hatchery

Driving home from upstate NY, I stopped by this old NY DEC Fish Hatchery to catch some frogs with my son. Onsite, there is an old building that I’ve driven past since my teenage years, and have always wanted to photograph. Built in 1932, it’s old weathered paint and classic framing is attractive to me. The hatchery itself originally raised bass but was home to trout and walleye over the years as well.
