Cherokee

Hub

The hub of a wheel of a Civil War cannon, a 12-pounder Napoleon.

Bucolic

I didn't like the way this photo turned out, so I started playing around with some effects (saturation, film grain, etc.) Looks kinda neat now, I think.

Spring Mix

Sort of an interesting mix of colors. Looks more like autumn than spring.

Are You Talking to Me?

A statue on the Illinois monument, Bragg Reservation, Missionary Ridge, Chattanooga, Tn.

Sweet Nectar

I chased this bumblebee (do you see it?) around for about ten or fifteen minutes, trying to get it to hold still and smile for the camera. I was trying to get close, but didn't want to get too close.

Shadows of War

A cannon, I believe this is a 12-pounder howitzer, part of Water's Alabama Battery, at Delong Reservation, Missionary Ridge, Chattanooga, Tn. The 2nd Minnesota Infantry monument is in the background.

A Self-Portrait

A self-portrait.

A Quick Drink

A bird pauses for a drink in a shallow pool at Miller Park in Chattanooga, Tn. The building reflected in the pool is the Federal Building.

Who Doesn't Like Spring?

I'm no botanist, but I'm pretty sure these are flowers.

Sunlight and Dogwoods

Sunlight streams through the leaves and blossoms of a dogwood tree.

Firemen's Fountain

The top section of the Firemen's Fountain, across from the Hamilton County Courthouse in Chattanooga, Tn. The fountain was dedicated to the memory of firemen Matthew Peak and Henry Iler, who died fighting a fire on Market Street on the night of June 9, 1887.

Water Dance

A dance of sunlight and water.
Coolidge Park, Chattanooga, Tn.

Fun Time

This little boy was having a ball, playing in the fountains at Coolidge Park in Chattanooga, Tn. In the summer, when the temperature and the humidity are both in the mid-90s, this fountain is filled with screaming kids getting soaking wet.
