Photography, seeking, writing…and learning along the way. Want to come along?!

It’s that time of year when I begin to think about the Minnesota State Fair Fine Arts competition. It has become quite a competitive experience, with photography a popular entry category . I have decided to focus more on experimenting and learning than the possibility of being selected to exhibit (less daunting) and am working on using the camera set to ‘manual’ in an effort to learn more about the art of photography. The cats are being very receptive models to that end!

Dylan is the most expressive of my cats. His looks signal many things, making him a delight to photograph. What are you thinking now dear Tabby?

What is a good match? Miss Katielyn in “Kiss-cup”. Pairing lipstick and a diner cup…

Tonight was the (almost) final show of the first season with Chris Thile at the helm of A Prairie Home Companion, the radio program based in St. Paul, MN. More to come! Fantastic evening with special thanks to The Avett Brothers, Jesca Hoop, and Jen Kirkman. Also a shout out to Grammy winner Sarah Jarosz and the amazing Aoife O’Donovan.
