Beaver Lake #86  Beckley, West Virginia July 2009

"The holiday weekend was going to be my time to recover from the previous two weeks but I only holed up with the usual goods and made it worse. But I'm looking hard at the pictures I got and for the most part, I'm feeling good about what I'm on to. But all in all, concerning that series of shots, is that I was a bit off both on composition and exposure and there's a sense there could be more in each picture. But I'm not unhappy with many of the effects I’m seeing; the color is strong, mostly, and it looks packed over and thrown around like from a brush."
