Photography Trip

The weather is starting to get warm out. And that means it is time for me to start to plan a summer photography trip around my own state, and the surrounding states to places I want to photograph. I live in Ohio, so Ohio is on my list. There is a place I want to go to in Indiana (Lincoln, Indiana) which is where Abe Lincolns childhood house (cabin) is located.

Michigan is in driving distance, I just have to research to find out what they have there that peaks my interests. There are tons of places around here in Ohio that I want to go to. Ohio really is a beautiful state. We have Lake Erie, and tons of historical places that would be very scenic.

I want to go to Amish country, someplace that I have never been to but always wanted to go, but I have been told that you can’t take any pictures there. Yet I have seen tons of ‘Amish Country and People” photography contests, so I guess I will have to do some more research to find out more.

There are Ren Faires around here that I always get great Pictures at. Tons of old structures (burnt down orphanges, Rutheford B Hayes Presidents house, battle sites). We are even going to charter a plane and take ariel views of the lake, and some scenic places from the air.  I just have to get on the ball, er, I should say the weather needs to get on the ball and cooperate with my plans. Its suppose to snow tonight. Um, Hello, it is almost May! Snow?!

I can’t wait to get started. My daughter will be starting school this year and I want to focus on my photography and the first step is updating my portfolio.

Is there anyone around Ohio, or the surrounding states, that knows  of a great place  for photographs?

I need to research more when I get time and make out a plan, or should I say a more extensive one. Oh warm weather, where art thou?
Please come out and play – and leave the snow at home. We don’t need anymore this year.

I am desperately in need of a vacation. From life, from the constant ringing of the telephone, from tv, from it all. I want to take a vacation in the woods of Maine, far away from anyone and everyone. Just me, my family, and my camera. Oh what a vacation that would be! Hey – Leave me alone and let me dream!!!
