Zur-clay

10-15-2009

My pictures are on display for the month of October at the AW J0nes Heritage Center on St. Simons Island which is at the base of the Lighthouse. A reception was held for me on the 13th and had a great turn out with lots of people that I didn't even know showing up to check out my work. I think I spoke with everyone and one of the first ladies I met said she was an artist that painted and had sort of a French accent. As she was looking at the names underneath the pictures she stopped at one of my Zirkle shots and asked if it was pronounced "Zur-clay."

Never even thought about it being seen this way as I told her "no, like circle with a Z."

I just bought a new lens a couple of weeks ago and was out trying it in the fog when I took this shot of the trees and the other is at "Zur-clay!"

My work will be on display until the 27th of October so if you are on the island swing in and check it out.

Getting Lucky

10-01-2009

A friend of mine called the other day while I was being picked for the grand jury. I had left my phone in the car and saw the message on my phone when I got back to it. I returned his call and I could tell he was under stress when he said "I need your help."

"Sure Kevin, what do you need?"

"I'm in California at Yosemite Park on vacation and my camera will not work! Man its beautiful out here, what can I do to fix it?"

Good thing there was no pressure. I told him the first thing that popped into my head about what it could be and he said hold on let me try it. The next thing I heard was "it's working! Thank you, thank you, thank you. Man it's beautiful out here. I'll bring some pictures home and let you see them." I had just got lucky on that one.

I've taken close to 30 framed photos over to the AW Jones Heritage Center on St. Simons for a month long show. The reception will be Oct. 13 from 6-8pm. If you are in the area look for the lighthouse ( the Heritage Center is at the base of it) and check it out.

I finally got lucky again yesterday and caught a fox, something that I do not have very many photos of.

Will find out tonight how my pictures do in the Okefenokee Heritage Center contest.
