Film photographer in Birmingham, Alabama. I am somehow still an Auburn fan and I like it when it rains on F1 races.

I loved the hell out of the Odyssey. Beautiful and fun and a movie ass movie. They showed it in 70mm here, and seeing a completely analog thing that never was digitized was a marketing trick that completely worked on me.

2 months ago I took a picture of a Shelton Fireworks in south Alabama and it was one of the best pictures I've taken. I couldn't believe how cool that building was. And then, last week, I discovered it was a chain. This one is on the border of South and North Carolina. Shot on Reflx Labs 400D .

I've dropped two lenses in my 51 years on this earth. Once a Canon 70-200 that was owned by my work about 10 years ago, and tonight, my beloved Tamron 35mm 1.4 on to my basement floor. It's now on Ebay, autofocus doesn't work. I kinda want to throw up, I just got it but loved it so much.

Cahaba River, Birmingham, Alabama. I spent a week on the top floor of my hospital with my dad. I watched a thunderstorm roll in, and felt like I was in the middle of it. I also tumped a kayak in that water in the foreground.
