The Aronoff

Last Friday, we went to the Aronoff to see "Hairspray." I was so taken with this view from inside the theatre. Below is a nighttime shot from outside the theatre. The lights and the angles were beautiful. The show was hilarious, and I highly recommend it to everyone!

K

I have a K!

Two letters down in my alphabet project.

This was taken as a raw image, on Sunday, October 20. I was at Molly Malone's in Covington watching some great bands play for the Fix Up Steve's House event. I looked out the window (I had to sit next to an open window because people were smoking), and I saw the K in the sky.

I'll post some of the band images (of Tupelo Honey) as soon as I can. I got a few good ones with my new lens, but I want to take some time (probably this weekend) to see what kind of quality I can get having used the raw setting.

Apperarently, I also had a few too many. I texted a bunch of my friends the following picture:


















I got some responses, but the only picture response I received was from Mom, who, THANK GOODNESS, pulled over to take this picture:

Oleo Lord

This was taken on the way up to the north Dayton area. If you're not familiar with this ginormous sculpture, here's a youtube video with a song from Haywood Banks - it's actually quite funny. The performance is from the Bob & Tom show. I also found this blog, "the son of god blog, as interpreted by his web creationist."

Q

I gave myself an assignment: Shoot the Alphabet. I am proud to present "Q"

This shot was taken during a 4-mile walk I'd planned on taking, but this time, I took my camera. It was a few days after Hurricane Ike hit Ohio - yes, Ohio! - and I didn't expect to be going for a HIKE instead of a walk. But it made for an interesting time, and a good workout!

Other images from the walk....

Allie likes the new bookshelf

It's been a while. I'm starting back in August and will be posting pictures from the past few months in the next few days.

We got a bookshelf for the bedroom. I saw one I liked at Target, but I didn't want to buy anything until we checked out IKEA. After spending an entire afternoon at IKEA, we went to Target to buy the shelf. When we got it home, took it out of the box and started assembling it, Roman noticed one of the sides was broken. ARGH! Another three hours out of my life later, we exchanged it, and Roman assembled it.

Here you can see the shelf we were obviously NOT allowed to put books on. It's Allie's. :)
