City Raccoons...

This morning as I sat here working, I caught something odd out of the corner of my eye ... I grabbed my camera and ran for the door not really sure what I had seen to find a lovely little family of "city raccoons" out for a walk...

Not long after I took these photos, the Momma Raccoon strolled back by alone...  As I've googled about "daytime city raccoons" this morning I've found that it's evidently not as uncommon as I thought... I'll drop some of those links here for us later...

A Bit from a 2009 Sunset Abandoned Building Adventure...

This building is located in the county of Massac... 

I had the opportunity to photograph it in 2009 on the "Laidlaw Sunset Adventure".  I'll go into very little detail other than that because I don't want anyone to get in trouble... 

There's Just Something About an Abandoned Building...

It's no secret, when I see an abandoned building I become absolutely overcome with a desire to peep inside... My preference of course is to go inside - but it's not always appropriate to trespass... 

A Glimpse of Paducah Freight House

Nashville, Chattanooga, and St. Louis Railway Office and Freight House, known as the "Paducah Freight House" is another little gem tucked away in Paducah... 

In 1925 it was built larger than it needed to be as many of the rail connections that had been intended never came to fruition...

Seniors - Thomas

I had SUCH a fantastic shoot with Thomas last week!! 

 Thomas was one of those fellas not entirely excited about having Senior portraits done, but considering it more of a necessary evil.  

Generally under these circumstances I ask that the semi-willing subject bring a couple of shirts and 60 minutes worth of willingness...
