Just got back home from a couple of days in Georgia on an assignment. Spent the first day shooting in the town of Washington, GA. The tiny town square had some of that old Southern charm and tradition with a bit of bohemian color and influence lurking around a couple of corners. Think Athens at about a fraction of the size and without a music scene. It was a great shoot and a neat place to spend a few hours with a camera and creative license.

After the sun went down it was time to drive to Atlanta. Checked into the Highland Inn, locked up the gear, and set out to get a burger at George’s in the Virginia-Highlands neighborhood and many beers at Manuel’s Tavern. Always good to be in Atlanta. It’s one of my favorite cities.

The next day started with some shooting in the morning followed by time well spent at the Marcia Wood Gallery for the Jason Fulford exhibit.

I’ve only seen Jason’s work in books and on the web so I was in awe of (and fell completely in love with) the beautiful 24×24 inch prints on display. Jason’s work makes me want to go out and see differently. It makes me want to explore what’s around me a little deeper and subsequently explore what I’ve discovered a little deeper still. It’s truly inspiring work and I’m so very happy that I caught the exhibit in its final days.

Now I just need to get back down there sometime in the next month or so to catch the Harry Callahan exhibit at Jackson Fine Art.
