This was taken inside the glass shop at Silver Dollar City. All the pieces in the shop are hand made and there was tons of colors in that space. These were some of the pumpkins they have made for fall. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions or comments would be welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!
Happy Halloween!

POTD - Portrait Work
This is one of the glass blowers that we watched for quite a well the two days we were at Silver Dollar City in Branson. This space presented a good challenge photographically which was pretty fun. The room was pretty low light with cool light overhead and the extremely warm light coming off the molten glass. I did manage this shot that I'm quite happy with. Since I don't do a lot of portrait work, I'd really like to hear your input. Thanks and as always, enjoy!

Dining With Waterfalls
There is a small eating area that overlooks this small pond and beautiful waterfall in Silver Dollar City. Everyone who knows me knows I'm a sucker for a good waterfall, so I had to stop and take a couple shots. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

POTD - World Famous Glass Blowing
One thing that I've always loved about Branson, in particularly Silver Dollar City, is the craftsmenship that's constantly surrounding you at all times. These glass blowers regularly work in this shop so guests can watch. I took quite a few pictures in here, and then some more the next day we were there. I was happy with the higher amount of portraits and storytelling shots that I was able to try here. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcome and appreciated. Enjoy!

POTD - Waterfall Timer
This was taken on our long weekend to Branson, Missouri. We stopped by the Big Cedar Lodge which is a resort near Branson. It's extremely nice and very beautiful. This is part of a waterfall that snakes through the resort and even over the roads in certain spots. I took this one with my 10-20mm with my variable neutral density filter set at six stops. For having clouds almost the entire weekend, I still manage to get several good shots. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

POTD - Alien Mantis
We just got back from a long weekend in Branson Missouri with my parents. We are watching the beginning of the baseball game and pretty happy so far. We go outside and on the outside of the door handle was a little green mantis. Jenea put her hand out to him and he didn't hesitate to climb aboard. I have been practicing with my flash to make myself a bit more versatile as a photographer. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

POTD - Daniel Boone's Home
About a week ago, I set out to a small town outside of St. Louis where Daniel Boone's home is. It's an amazing historical sight and looks very good for being finished in 1810. The property it sits on belonged to Daniel's youngest son Nathan. Oddly enough, this is a shot of the back of the house. Which I, like most other people, thought it was the front of the house. The house is four stories tall and has walls that are two and a half feet thick. The historical society has also brought other building from this time period onto the property to create a small village. There were a lot of great architecture shots here and as you'll see in a couple of days, the fall colors made and appearance as well. Please let me know what you think as any suggestions would be welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!
