“Jeepy Grape Graffiti”
Across North Main St. from my 211 Studio in Horseheads NY, is an old railroad track siding/spur that is still used today by the Host Company that supplies fracking sand to local fracking sites. They are always moving freight cars filled with sand in and out as they empty or load the sand into or from their warehouses. From a distance I noticed some bright Graffiti on this one car while walking my dog, and as I got closer I saw how beautiful this one car was painted! So I grabbed the camera, shot some neat images of the sand hopper car, then I drove my 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited over & parked right next to it for these Super Shots! As my hero David Letterman always likes to say…”There is No OFF Position on the Genius Switch!”

Someday’s Do Come True…
In December I had a 211 Studio Shoot of a couple of “Rose’s”, my friend Mike & his Dad Chuck, both local Firefighters.
Mike is a Firefighter with the Corning City F.D. as well as a member here of the Horseheads F.D., while his Dad Chuck is a member of the Elmira Heights F.D.
Mike also brought to the shoot an old picture from when he was just a four year old boy at the Ward ’79 Parade in 1983, standing with & dreaming of joining his Fireman Daddy someday.
Well….Someday’s Do Come True….and Here’s the Proof!

Limbo Granny!
So I’ve been shooting Weddings Full Time now for 18+ Seasons, and over that period of time I’ve shot nearly 700 Weddings.
In that time span I think I’ve pretty much seen JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING. Oh, Contraire!
At Patti & Jeremy’s Wagner Winery Wedding back in September the Band THE DESTINATION, had the Great Crowd kicking some Serious Ass out on the Ginny Lee Cafe’ Dance Floor when someone wanted to do the LIMBO! One problem though…nobody had any kind of Pole or Bar to use for this back breaking dance.
“What Do We Do?”
So in a Flash of Genius somebody came up with the Brilliant Idea… “Hey, let’s use Granny’s Oxygen Tank Hose!” One small problem though….Granny was still attached to it! No Biggee!… She got right into the swing of things by raising and lowering the Clear Plastic Hose on her side of the floor, and someone else manned the Hose & the Oxygen Tank on the other side!
Needless to say….I hope these Images pretty much “Take Your Breath Away!”
