My family lives on an acreage connected to the main family farm, between the East and West Des Moines rivers right on the Lotts Creek. There is plenty to see and photograph here. I take pictures every day, (x-rays) but real photography is a hobby for me. I try to take pictures of people, places, and things that I am currently doing or involved in. I don't try to take random pictures, I like to tell a story with each picture, even though the picture should tell the story. It takes me a few 2 or 4 days to find that right opportunity for a pic, I dont want to overload my photostream with the same thing or the same theme, color, exct.
