I plan on offering prints for sale very soon, and I’ve been selecting images from my archives for printing. This is one that caught my eye, not so much because it’s a good pic of the Outlaws’ Chris Anderson and Hughie Thomasson, but because my friend Donna Smith is in it. Donna was behind the...
I haven’t entered a photo contest since the early seventies. Until now. PDN, which stands for Photo District News, is an influential magazine for professional photographers. PDN is having a photo contest called Ultimate Music Moment 2012. I’ve entered the photo below that I first posted here on April 7th. This is where you...
If Zac Brown was front and center, then why does he look so much like Clay Cook? Basically, because I was at the concert as a guest of Blackberry Smoke, who opened the show. While no one told me I couldn’t shoot the Zac Brown Band, no one exactly gave me permission either. During Zac’s...
There was no shortage of great guitarists with the Zac Brown Band when I saw them last spring. Here, Coy Bowles is doing his thing. Now, you may ask how I could run back-to-back pics of the ZBB and not include a shot of Zac Brown? That’s just the way it goes sometimes. I did...

I’ve been sitting on the shots I took of the Zac Brown Band for almost six months after asking for their permission...

All you gotta do to enjoy this view is hike 2 1/2 miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway up the side of a mountain, and then climb a fire lookout tower. I was huffin’ and puffin’ by the time Mitzi and I reached the top of the trail on Sunday. Then it started to...
On the fourth anniversary of his passing, I thought I’d post one of my all time favorite pics of Hughie Thomasson. I shot this in 2006 at the Lyric Theater in Stuart, Florida. Some of you may have seen it previously. I think I may have posted it briefly on the message boards of...
