• Strange Highways

    [singlepic id=146 w=320 h=240 float=] Here are a few shots I did on the night of my birthday. It was around 2:30 am. I had gotten off work and headed up to a place called Northwest, where I knew of some nice open fields that I might be able to set up nearby and get…

  • Fubuki – Untitled

    Originally uploaded by fubuki I’ve been following Fubuki for years, ever since I saw a set of his photos featuring Wilmington, NC posted by Richard Perry on his Akira Media blog. Something about his photos inspires me, whether its a tribal dancer in San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato as seen here, or a snapshot through…

  • Opacity – Epicenter

    Opacity is a photoblog run by Tom Kirsch, aka Motts. The man simply goes where I would never have the kihones to even look at, much less enter. And he brings back photographic evidence. His photos are pretty amazing, he obviously spends quite a bit of time in the places he visits getting his shots…

  • Doilum – Quad

    Flickr of the day: Doilum shares this photo of a strange structure in an abandoned factory in South London. It’s nice and dark. Check out the rest of Doilums photos of abandoned structures at this link.

  • Captured: America in Color from 1939-1943 – Plog Photo Blog

    Thanks to my friend Paul, I came across this set of photographs from the early 40’s. They’re in color! These images show us a time when there was no internet, no television, no X-box or Wii, and definitely no cell phones. And yet, these people manage to get along just fine. You can see a…

  • Zebra Swallowtail on Zinnia

    A few weeks ago I noticed a butterfly at work. It was flapping around on the ground, so I knew it wouldn’t live much longer. So I decided I’d bring him home, show him to the girls so they could get a good close look at a butterfly. I put him between two small paper…

  • Winter 1980

    I remember it like it was yesterday. My Grandparents on my Dad’s side from Georgia were visiting. It’s the only time it happened. I never saw my grandparents anywhere other than Hazelhurst, GA. Except for this one time, in the winter of 1980. The winter that it snowed over a foot. I remember hearing that…

  • My Family

    Here is a collection of old photos of some of my family. I found these in a box at my moms house, they span a period of time from the 30’s all the way to the 80’s – a fifty year visual slice of family history. Here you will see people like Uncle Harry, who…

  • Trucks

    On Burnett Blvd, right before you get to Greenfield Lake and Carolina Beach Road, there is a fenced in area on the back of some sort of warehouse or something. In this yard were about fifteen or twenty old trucks and school buses, some looking like they date back to the fifties. These are the…

  • Graffiti Documentation Project

    A few years ago, there was a person (or a couple of people) that did stenciled graffiti all over the alleys of downtown Wilmington. Some of these were very interesting, so I set out with my camera to capture as many as I could before ‘the man’ came along with his bucket of gray paint…

  • Oakdale Cemetery

    In Wilmington, NC lies Oakdale Cemetery, a nearly 160 year old cemetery. It is filled with interesting little corners and gothic monuments. Some of these are fairly horrible to behold, making sure that everyone who visits gets the message that this person is DEAD. And he isn’t coming back! [nggallery id=7]

  • Do this, don’t do that…

    This is a photo essay I did a while back on signs found in Carolina Beach, NC. After scouting around for signs, I began to realize a theme. Namely, ‘no fun!’ [nggallery id=6]
