St. Joe Kitsch (for Clare)

a few from the St. Joe News Press

This might be one of those that I like because of the effort involved instead of the quality of the photo. It took all day to find anyone who was willing to be photographed for the unemployment story.

Lorie Swenson, Jeremy Grieshaber, and Veronica Hunt, left to right, shop at Apple Market on Mitchell Ave. on Tuesday evening. Swenson and Grieshaber have both been drawing unemployment for about a year. "We don't buy steaks," Swenson said. "We buy more ground beef and chicken." About half of Missourian's currently receiving unemployment benefits will lose them at the end of July.


Swoop, an eagle-owl, flies over a crowd of about 90 people during the Wings of Love presentation at Washington Park Library on Wednesday. Eagle-owls are the largest type of owl in the world, said bird handler Yvonne Patterson.

Hopefully I'll have some good photos from St. Joe to post soon. For now, here are a few from my weekend home.

my master's project

Below is one of the audio slideshows I made for the professional skills component of my master's project. Click here to see the website with all three slideshows.

Camping

We had a ton of fun this weekend with Beth, Calin and Jakob at Rudolph Bennitt Conservation Area.

Farm to Table

I got to photograph the Farm to Table Festival this weekend for the Missourian. They ran one of my photos pretty big on A1 yesterday and a slideshow online.

Dinner on Sunday

I've been so busy working on the writing and editing parts of my project and "living life like I'm living," to quote my friend Nicole, that I've fallen behind on blogging. I just haven't made many pictures in the last two weeks. Jamie, Jakob, Calin, Beth and I have been at a lake everyday for the last week or so. Sunday night we feasted.
