Ken Conger

Ken Conger visited Lynchburg last night and gave another super presentation of his most recent pics taken in Alaska. The presentation is the second I have attended at monthly meetings of BRPAS (Blue Ridge Photographic Arts Society).

Ken was in conservation enforcement for over 30 years and has now devoted his time and efforts to his love of photography … and it shows!

Ken both inspires and embarrasses me by humbly showing off his photos. After the presentation I attended, I told Ken “I hate you!”, just to let him know I was very envious of his talent and body of work.

His “Most Popular” shots can be viewed at: http://kenconger.smugmug.com/popular/#60948552_nLkH5

If you EVER have the chance to attend one of Ken’s presentations or see his works framed, up close and personal …. DO IT!!!!

… sigh …

Signage … art?

From time to time I have/feel the need to produce a piece of art(?) that somewhat resembles a highway sign (“Flagger Ahead”).

I just stumbled across a link (http://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/ser-shs_millennium_eng.htm) to the Federal Department of Highways sign manual. This document shows all the signs you may see along the road and gives dimensions.

Sorry, just had to share this UPI (“Useless Piece of Information”) with the world … I think this kind of info is neat.
