This is a portion of my in-laws screened-in porch. They grow their own tomatoes and cucumbers. This scene just struck me as a typical Southern scene in the summer. I love summer in the South. The heat and humidity make me feel alive. I’m afraid I’m in the minority on this subject.

Mr. Ant – Snapshot of the Day, No. 183
Boo! I missed the focus on this ant. Oh well. The closer you get with a macro, the harder it is to focus. But, as usual, I only allow myself one shot. At any rate, I was framing up the flowers on this monkey grass when my little friend came along.
Taters – Snapshot of the Day, No. 182
I stumbled across this area of food venders today in downtown Chattanooga. They call themselves, Chattanooga Street Food Project, and it seemed pretty cool. Here is a story about it if you’re interested. Since I usually bring my lunch, I did not get a chance to try out the food; but that’s an idea for next week. ThisContinue reading “Taters – Snapshot of the Day, No. 182”
I’ll be Watching You – Snapshot of the Day, No 181
For as long as I can remember, this building – a former gas station – has been vacant. But now it is about to reopen as a restaurant: “Universal Joint.” As for the eyes painted on the building behind it – that was just luck for me. I have no idea why they are thereContinue reading “I’ll be Watching You – Snapshot of the Day, No 181”
In Brainerd – Snapshot of the Day, No. 179
Every time I see this guy in an area of town near my old house called “Brainerd,” I think of the Paul Bunyan statue in the movie, “Fargo.” They have a Brainerd, too. I always thought that was odd. Anyway, this guy stands at our area miniature golf and recreation site called Goony Golf. OurContinue reading “In Brainerd – Snapshot of the Day, No. 179”
The Hidden Door – Snapshot of the Day, No. 178
I kept walking around the corner of this street and noticed people going through this door on a regular basis. Hmmm. It did not seem to belong to any particular business. The door to the coffeehouse, Chattz, was a different one – the one on the far left of the frame. I got tired ofContinue reading “The Hidden Door – Snapshot of the Day, No. 178”
Found Titleist – Snapshot of the Day, No. 175
I was being eaten alive by insects while shooting this photo. It was taken in my in-laws’ backyard. We’ve had a very wet summer, so the mosquitoes are very prevalent. In other words, they’re everywhere and hungry.
Yes, We’re Open – Snapshot of the Day, No. 174
This little dog was inside Chad’s Records while watching people walk by on Frazier Avenue today. It must have been time for his nap. He could barely keep his eyes open.
Slippers in the Morning – Snapshot of the Day, No. 173
Ever since our tree hit our house, we have had new light coming into the kitchen in the morning. Well it was just a limb; albeit a pretty large one, but it definitely has affected the light in the kitchen. I thought it was pretty hitting my bedroom slippers this morning.
Cigars, Gifts & Accessories – Snapshot of the Day, No. 172
I’ve always liked this street – Cherry Street. It’s got an old-world charm to it. I had a few extra minutes today at work, so I slipped out in search of a good photo. Nothing was really presenting itself to me, so I put the ole’ Lensbaby on the camera and made the scene aContinue reading “Cigars, Gifts & Accessories – Snapshot of the Day, No. 172”
