Sunset at Taylor Lake

2011-01-12T12:44:00.000-08:00

I grabbed this sunset shot the other evening at the Taylor Lake.

More BlackBerry Pics

2011-01-12T12:42:00.000-08:00

This is a shot of the Jefferson Cemetery, about a mile northwest of the Taylor University campus in Upland, Ind. A small tornado touched down there in October.

A few shots with my BlackBerry

2010-12-26T14:21:00.000-08:00

I got this shot a few weeks ago with the camera in my phone. While there are some things you cannot do with it, there have been many others that it has been able to get some great photos.

Christmas Candlelight Service

2010-12-25T09:15:00.000-08:00

We had our Christmas Eve candlelight service last evening at Westminster Presbyterian Church. The church was full and it was wonderful to see so many people return who grew up here and have since married and moved away.

Silent Night is the wonderful part of the service when we light our candles. I've always taken photos during that time as kind of my own form of worship.

I pray that each of us might find the peace on earth and goodwill to all that the angels foretold that night 2,000 years ago.

Memorial Prayer Chapel, Taylor University

2010-11-21T17:41:00.000-08:00

Here is our Memorial Prayer Chapel at Taylor University. I got this photo last summer during one of those spectacular afternoons when the clouds were so incredible. Beautiful setting.

Another Rice Bell Tower Clouds Shot

2010-09-07T16:33:00.000-07:00

Another shot of the Rice Bell Tower at Taylor University. I got this one with my BlackBerry and did some post production in Picasa. While the camera has its limits, there are some pretty cool things you can do with it.

Old Glory

2010-09-06T12:00:00.000-07:00

I got this photo last week during Community Plunge at Taylor University. It's the day between 500-700 students, faculty and staff members go into the Upland, Ind., community to perform service projects that range from trash pickup and weed pulling to painting and washing fire trucks. It's always a great time!

The Rice Bell Tower at Taylor University

2010-09-06T11:57:00.000-07:00

I got this photo last week as I was coming to work one morning. The clouds this summer have been spectacular!

Closed ... permanently

2010-07-24T18:19:00.000-07:00

The Craig & Friends hair salon was an institution near our Taylor campus for many years until they moved to a new location in Upland. The building was demolished last week.

Another Amazing Sunset

2010-07-23T13:06:00.000-07:00

The clouds this week have just been incredible!

Brilliant Sunset

2010-07-23T13:02:00.000-07:00

The sunsets this week have just been incredible! I grabbed this shot a couple of nights ago.

Morris Island Lighthouse, Charleston, SC

2010-01-26T20:10:00.000-08:00

We got this shot of the Morris Island Lighthouse near Charleston while we were there. It was about a half-mile walk from where we parked to where we were able to see the lighthouse. Very warm. Lots of sand. Great memories!

Charleston, SC

2010-01-26T20:06:00.000-08:00

I got this shot with my D70 last summer during a visit to the beach in Charleston, SC. It was one of the few times last summer that I was really hot. I hope next summer is warmer!

Taylor University's Coach Krause

2010-01-07T14:39:00.000-08:00

Here is a shot of Coach Krause and the team from a game this year. We are blessed to have her!

True North

2009-12-28T16:29:00.000-08:00

This photo was taken at one of the spots where the sun shined through the window onto the water's surface.

Making a Splash

2009-12-28T16:27:00.000-08:00

I got this photo a few weeks ago during a photo shoot with the Cardinal Swimming Club. The lighting in the pool was outstanding and let me get some great action shots!

Man's Best Friend

2009-12-28T16:24:00.000-08:00

This is Taylor, my brother-in-law's dog. She and I are great friends ... even if I am allergic to dog fur. Bummer.

I Love Lucy

2009-12-28T16:20:00.000-08:00

This is a shot of our cat, Lucy. When we got her, we also had a lizard named Caspian... we were going with the C.S. Lewis names for our animals!

We'll Always Have Paris

2009-12-20T10:51:00.000-08:00

This shot is in honor of our daughter and her special friend, the ill-fated BSU buck, who was dispatched to its eternal reward by campus officials a few weeks ago. She was running one afternoon near the campus woods when she heard footsteps. A bit frightened, she looked over and saw "Bucky" (as she calls him) running alongside her - albeit inside the fence. She said she would always remember those special moments.

Taylor University women's basketball

2009-12-20T10:38:00.000-08:00

I had a great time yesterday photographing the Taylor-Brescia women's basketball game. TU won 81-69. Coach Krause is just two wins away from her 400th win. We had a pretty nice crowd turnout too!

Memorial Prayer Chapel - Taylor University

2009-12-15T20:13:00.000-08:00

I got this shot of our Memorial Prayer Chapel last year for a story in M Magazine. This is a beautiful place ... if you are ever in Central Indiana, please make every effort to visit.

Bell Tower and Clouds

2009-12-15T14:08:00.000-08:00

This shot of our bell tower was done on an unusually warm November day. A storm was moving in and we were just at the edge of the cold front. It created a striking image.

Sunrise

2009-12-15T13:58:00.000-08:00

I got these shots during one of the spectacular sunrises we enjoyed this fall. The first is at the Rice Bell Tower at Taylor University; the second shot is of our Memorial Prayer Chapel.

Jack's Camera Shop, Muncie, Indiana

2009-12-14T18:08:00.000-08:00

I got this shot with my cell phone at one of my favorite places - Jack's Camera Shop! It's pretty amazing how much these phones can accomplish. In some cases, the shots are as good if not better than the stuff I used to get with my D1.

Hoosier Sunset

2009-12-14T17:59:00.000-08:00

I usually see a sunset like this when it's not possible to stop my car to get a photo. On this night, I was able to get stopped and get a few shots of one of the spectacular sunsets we enjoyed this fall.

Muncie Central Cross Country

2009-12-14T17:55:00.000-08:00

Cross Country Photos

2008-08-30T19:47:00.000-07:00

Hi everyone, I'm going to stop posting as many photos on the blog and start posting more shots on my Facebook account. Google, in their infinite wisdom, thinks this is a spam blog - so I have to enter all kinds of encrypted letters to post anything now. On Facebook, you can tag your shots, even use them as your ID photos if you like.
