Yesterday I chased snowflakes around Valle Crucis. I tried a few new photo techniques with a failure rate of about 99%. Encouraging. This horse at Dutch Creek Trails was my buddy for about 15 minutes. Oh how he enjoys a bit of nose rubbing...
A few links:
First, if you like word games but you have no time whatsoever to spend, do not click on this Free Rice site. On the other hand, if you don't mind sending rice to starving children at the expense of the site's advertisers and you love words, then by all means, click away. It is fun. The site is legit, Amy did the research.
Next, US Air magazine did a huge 22 page profile piece on the Boone/Blowing Rock area. My photos are sprinkled within. I must say, it is delightful to be paid industry photography rates- a rare treat up here in the middle of nowhere. The magazine staff was professional and kind. I suppose this isn't such a great time to mention I have a certain fondness for American Airlines...
However, if you are on a US Air flight in the next couple of days, check out the in-flight magazine. Be sure to bend the pages nearly clear to the spine, then squint real hard and then maybe, just maybe, you will see my photo credit. It's ok with me though, their check cleared;)
