foot in the door

So I got this idea to talk to the city of Vine Grove, KY to do a one year photo story on the town. The people, places, and things that make Vine Grove great. From the Bluegrass Festival to the soldiers that call this town home away from home. Easier said then done. I think I have a lot of work in front of me. From paperwork to actual work. It will be tired and trying. But let me see what i can do. I plan to do it for a year or so and then have an exhibit at the school or city hall. I think it will be a good challenge for me. Plus maybe I can make a few connections along the way. That's it for now.

So while the wifey was at work the other day on fort knox, I decided to drive around and find some things to take pictures of. So i looked out my window up on this hill was this house. I loved the way the trees surrounding the house framed it. I dont know how old it was or why it was still standing. But the site of it

just had me in awe. I walked in and all i see out of the corner of my eye was the shape of a body and a head. I was a little startled I'll admit. Someone had used the house as a haunted house and stuffed clothes with hay and made a head out of it. So after feeling like a wimp I looked in the corner and saw this red chair just sitting in the corner with a white boot just sitting on it. I thought it was a little awkward. This old house with this red chair and a white boot. Not to mention the brand new porch swing hanging from front. It just shows that use can be made out of anything.
I was constantly looking over my shoulder though. It was on property who i did not now. So i didnt get to shoot as long as I wanted. I can't wait to get out of the army so i can do this for a living and not just when i get time.

Welcome To My Blog

Well ok. Here it is....my blog. I will be posting pictures (when there good enough), stories, and just my thoughts. I am a Specialist in the U.S. Army Military Police Corps. I hope to major in photojournalism from SIUC or whatever college is closer where the army sends me.
