The requirements for our second audio story were only: 2:30-4:00 minutes, no narration, no music. I saw a posting that the Athens County Dog Shelter was completely full up with 60(ish) dogs and called to set up an interview. When I arrived, so many dogs had been adopted/rescued that only […]

Bar Light
Last night I spoke with the fiddler from Fox n Hounds before their show at Dick’s Den in Columbus. The music was amazing, I got to play with glowing bar light, and was welcomed by more wonderful Southerners. Before I do any real editing, here’s some tangential photos. This should […]
Rescue
This was my first shoot with the affectionately named Underhound Railroad, an operation of Friends of the Shelter Dogs. Volunteers from Athens County take dogs from the kill shelter here and foster them, vet them, and drive them until they get verifiable nice new homes. Brooke, this Beagle, went to […]

Sunday Creek
Our second Picture Story assignment is “Place or Issue.” Since I couldn’t decide between the two I decided to attempt tackling both with the subject of clean water. Yesterday I spent some time with Michelle of the Sunday Creek Watershed Group. She took me to two sites: one in desperate […]
