It feels good to get back to the 50mm focal length. That's where I started with SLR's. It feels like home.

I was happy with the Fred photo. I like him so much. When the ticket office opens, he is there to greet us as we walk in, and after the movie he bids us a good evening. Such a welcoming place.

Rufus Wainwright is coming to his theater this month. That is going to be a great show.

in that fountain when she was a toddler on a too hot summer day. Thanks for capturing the joy. Also, I've been going to the Kentucky Theater since the 60's. Lexington benefits from both newer and older entertainment spots.

I don't know anything about photography, which seems to be what most of the comments are about, but I DO know about the Kentucky Theater. I grew up in Lexington, KY and remember going to that movie theater as a young person. Glad to see it is back in business.

I ended up having to darken many because the concrete and harsh sun. I also wanted to make sure I had the skin tones to my liking. I should have brought my ND filter.

This Sunday is a cyclocross.
