Great shots! Really impressed. What kind of camera do you use?

I hope you’re still impressed after I tell you I use my iPhone5 and enhance them using the Camera+ app.🙂 And thank you.

Hah! Well, take comfort in the knowledge that whatever other answer you might have given would have pretty much been Greek to me–I don’t know the first thing about photography. So yes, still impressed.

So i have a question for you. A friend might come to visit me in October, this year we went to Eureka Springs AK … but we are up for another mini adventure this year and I live tight over the border in Arkansas. We’d like to go some place historic, with cemeteries to take pics of, with some shopping, I am thinking of Lexington … is there another place you’d suggest? What are your thoughts on Lexington

Your Eureka posts were GREAT! I was there once with my family and I loved every bit of it. I’m wanting to go back soon and stay at the Crescent. Lexington is a cute little town with lots of history, but you may not find as many tourist activities as Eureka Springs. It’ll be a calmer/quieter visit, for sure. A great civil war battle site though, and some really beautiful homes and some B&Bs.

Thank you all for your compliments! These photos and this visit inspired me to buy a new big boy camera. Not necessarily a pro camera, but I’m spending $500.🙂 I’m super excited to learn and play with lenses and filters.

These are great pictures, though I wonder why you wanted to visit the cemetery on Christmas Eve? Any particular reason?

Thanks, Angie! Well, I’m not a stranger to cemeteries, and so I visit them often. It was really just a chance to visit one of my favorite cemeteries in my hometown after a fresh snow. But spiritually, I think the holidays are probably a great time to visit. Later that evening, I found out that I had just missed one of my aunts visiting the same cemetery just hours before.🙂

Now that I have my new camera, CJ, I wish I were back there to retake them all.🙂 Thanks for the compliment.

Gorgeous photographs. I love Machpelah. I see Marquis Withers’ headstone in there. He built the big brick Italianate at the corner of 17th and Franklin, which is one of my favorite houses in Lexington.

Thinking of these great monuments in those terms sure does change the experience of walking through. I wouldn’t have known that. Sometimes I don’t even look at the names anymore… I’m just looking for the photo, and that’s bad.
