You - Boy Scout Today you are an American boy. Before long you will be an American man. It is important to America and to yourself that you become a citizen of fine character, physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight. Boy Scouting helps you become that kind of citizen. But also, Scouting gives you fellowship and fun. Yes, it's fun to be a Boy Scout! It's fun

Last Spring I was fortunate to be asked to help fill some rhythm guitar / backing vocal shoes with Mic Harrison and The High Score. What started as a couple of nights in Knoxville ended up as a spot at every Tuesday night practice, and a bunch of fun weekends playing with the guys, from places as random as a ridge-top in Campbell County to the amazing stage at the TN Theatre.

Old Maryville Pike. Knoxville, TN | 2011 A very good day. I guess that's what draws me to most of the shots I post. The act of just being there, taking the shot ... that is what makes it memorable to me. BUT, how can I make it memorable for someone else? Hopefully, with more fun and work, I can figure that out. I will keep trying.

WDVX Blue Plate Special | photo by: George Middlebrooks I saw an old friend Monday night. The kind of friend that'll do pretty much anything for you. You know the ones. You pick right up where you left off ... months, or even years before. Well, Mic Harrison is one of those friends. I've know Mic since ... hmmm ... well, since about 1995 or '96.

Strip-Mall I'm scanning more film tonight. I have learned that I don't like this slide film very much. It is dark, and I missed some really good shots because of it (or my lack of skill with it). I will switch over for good now. I do kinda like this one though ...

iPhone | CameraBag app | July 2010So, lately I have been using my phone for a lot of things other than talking on it. It has become my main source of internet, my main method to return email, an alarm clock, my date-book, a calculator, my maps, sometimes a radio, occasionally a TV, a guitar tuner, a "magic 8-ball", a dictionary, a means to play scrabble with friends, a way to pay bills, a fake

Foodmart | Rutledge Pike. Knoxville, TN | 2008?It's summer and it's hot outside. For some reason this photo reminds me of that. Sun blazing, window-down driving, left-arm tan, stop at the foodmart for a cold co-cola, mindless wandering, and maybe a stop at the lake for a dunk ... or to drop a fishing line in a cove. I think this weekend was made for all of the above.

Compulsive Gamblers, Crystal Gazing Luck Amazing album coverI go through music-listening phases just like most folks who spend much of their time listening to records. You know, a month/week/day of listening to mostly one artist or band. I have my Westerberg months, my Neil Young times, my Springsteen weeks, my Faces days, but recently I have been on a really extended kick. It has been 6 to 12

"Thriftscapes" | Knoxville, TN | 2004 (click image for larger view)A few years ago, when taking a photography course in college, I had the idea to take b&w shots of landscape paintings that I found in thrift stores. I got 5 done for class, and presented them ... and then my life took over, and I neglected to follow through with the project. Plus, my old trusty Nikkormat started being all fussy,

N. Broadway | Knoxville, TN | 2009Lately, I have been trying to look at my work in a new way. Until now, I have been trying to place things into themes; such as reflections, landscapes, people, etc... You know, compartmentalizing. Thinking too much. But, now, when I step back and look at the work all together I am seeing overall patterns. That's always interesting. I mean, it happens with

Well, I figure it's time to get on the bandwagon. In an effort to further this desire to create art, I have created an Etsy shop for folks to actually be able to purchase some of the work I'm creating. I also created a Facebook Fan Page, which seems really weird to me at the moment, but hey, it's good to keep this stuff a bit separate from my personal pages, right? I don't know. What I do know,
