The Ogeechee is a real treasure. It is one of the few unspoiled rivers we have left, and I grew up about 10 miles from it. These photos were taken by the Highway 119 Bridge, just north of Guyton.

I got to spend most of the day out at the beach. The weather was perfect!

I took this back in December during the full moon. I am really enjoying getting to know the new camera.

The only editing I did was a crop.

It was a tough decision, but I decided to sell my Canon XTi SLR camera. It was awesome, but I just don’t have the time to learn all the advanced features. Here are a few shots from the replacement.

It’s been a cold and rainy day, so I only took a couple.

Literally! They just finished a new parking deck at Kennesaw State, and I drove to the top to take a few photos. They are now building a new dining hall and health services building. They expect to have them done next fall.

Some relatives of mine and I went to Juliette Georgia to eat at the Whistle Stop Cafe on Saturday. Juliette is very small town on the Ocmulgee River and is very picturesque. We did have Green Fried Tomatoes and Vidalia Onion Rings. We have eaten both of the dishes when in season for years. Juliette is a lovely place to visit if you are passing through.

Hummingbirds are so cute.  I’m learning how to photograph them.  Boy does it ever take patience!!!

The lake was almost dried up last year. Good to see it’s making a comeback.

The itty bitty town of Tallapoosa put on a fanstastic fireworks show on the 4th of July.  I took over 300 pictures and the show lasted a good 40-45 minutes.  If you’re ever near western Georgia on Independence Day you need to check it out.  You won’t be disappointed.  I’ve included a couple of my pics here.
