Chickity China the Chinese Chicken Chuck Wagon

I have been busy in China taking care of many things, some of which come fully feathered.  Check out my latest companions at the salad bar.  These guys were extremely suspicious of the clicking camera and would not go near the roughage with the camera nearby.  So I tried a few different locations until finally they began to hammer away at the greens.  Luckily this timed out perfectly with the Muppets audio.

This is my first real attempt at time lapse but I hope to do more in the near future.  Just looking for those perfect scenes… here in China they should not be hard to find.

Prize to those who can think of the best name for these chickens.

Below is the Youku version for all those in China without access to YouTube.

ING New York City Marathon

I know this took way to long to post, the race was the first weekend in November, but I did want to share some race day photos from the New York City marathon this year.  Once again I was lucky to photograph for a great organization, the Robin Hood Foundation, just past mile 20.  Before [...]

Wuhan Institute of Physical Education

This time last year I was spending my time at the Wuhan Institute of Physical Education.  The fairly large university (7,000+ students) located in the capitol city of Hubei Province, China is dedicated to sports training and sports education.  Students can major in basketball, ping-pong, dance, journalism, business, English and many other fields.  The majority [...]

Hudepohl 14K Brewery Run and Bier Laufen

This past Saturday Hodepohl and the Christian Moerlein Brewery brought back the 10th edition of the Hodepohl 14K Brewery Run after a 14 year hiatus.  While there was a few snafus with the race the 2,200+ runners seemed to have a great time. Of course a long list of free goodies always help soothe the [...]

Sullivan County Pennsylvania Flood of 2011

Just a few weeks ago all the news was chock-full of Hurricane Irene and the possible damage to be caused along the east coast.  Luckily, the major impact as predicted did not come to fruition.  But as much of Vermont and other northern areas sat under a boundless rain cloud New York City and other [...]

Video - My Morning Jacket at Riverbend

Went up to Riverbend (PNC Pavilion) to check out one of my favorite live acts of all time, My Morning Jacket.  Once again they did not disappoint.  What did disappoint is my phone… terrible at low light photography and the mic officially hates bass, so I had to import some tunes.  Barry White, do not [...]

Boone County Fair Demolition Derby

Was out at the Boone County Kentucky Fair and snapped some photos (and took a video at the Demolition Derby).  The seating setup was not the best, we had a chain-link fence right in our view.  So most of my photos had a large chunk of fence in most of them.  But  few of them [...]

Vietnam (Siagon and Mui Ne)

So it has been forever since my last post…. busy busy.  About a month ago one of my Wuhan friends and I decided to get out of the busy Chinese city life and head down to relax on the beaches of Vietnam.  The planning was a whirlwind, as I was scheduled to fly back to [...]

Beijing - Forbidden City

Stop number one on most tourist trips to Beijing… the Forbidden City.  This UNESCO World Heritage Site is located almost smack-dab in the middle of the Middle Kingdom’s capitol city.  Usually the place is crawling with tourists but during the Spring Festival holiday most locals, and Chinese tourists, return home.  This creates a relatively good [...]

Beijing - Tiananmen Square

It’s been a long time since my last post.  Too long.  Too busy.
Even now I only have a little time to post some photos from the Spring Festival trip to Beijing.  Here are some of my favorites from Tiananmen Square.  Over the following week(s) I will post some more photos from Beijing.  Do enjoy!
