Sometimes a 200mm lens seems like nothing. Jim was out on a bike ride tonight and called me to grab my camera and photograph these cranes he found off of Iris Road. I was really intent on finishing two orders tonight but since it was such a beautiful evening I headed out there. We also drove over to the East side of hiway 26 to shoot this freshly cut hay field. I explained to the farmer as he exited his John Deere that the textures and rows were so appealing. “It’s always nice when somebody’s interested in your world,” he responded. Definitely worth the interruption.

Again, I have been lax at getting update photos of our church construction project. Of course, I really haven’t posted anything at all this summer but things will probably slow down a bit for me now. Also, I was under the illusion that not much was happening due to the frequent rains but when I got up to the 2nd floor again, I saw that the cement floor had been poured. I totally missed that.

What a beautiful day and a beautiful couple. The wedding party was pretty sweet, too. All of this combined makes some pretty sweet photos – here’s a glimpse into their story from June 20th.
