my poor neglected blog...

i have no time to blog.  no time to read blogs, or to write them.  i'm too busy taking photographs for fun and for profit.  taking the photos, then editing.  also, my day job.  and then there's having a house and dogs and cooking and cleaning.

and really, i think my mom is the only one reading my blog.  and maybe mark s. once in a great while.  the only thing i do online at this point is post my photos on facebook, because that's how my photography side business took off.  and it's where my business continues to grow.

it's also really fun, posting photos, especially the ones of old cleveland buildings, graffiti, etc...

a word about "urban exploration": it's become super trendy.  hipster kids breaking into old buildings, taking photos.  that's not my thing.  i just naturally found myself drawn to the old abandoned factories that i saw on my drive to work.  i started hopping out of the car to take photos.  then i researched the buildings online.  it all happened naturally.

so now i leave for work super early and take different side roads to work.  i find weird old biker bars, graffiti, all sorts of strange things.  i'm super careful, i take most photos from my car.  i'm just so drawn to these inner city landscapes.  and part of me feels compelled to tell their stories...
