Winter Feed Mill
It was snowing Friday, so I stopped by Jimmy Horney’s mill, Julian Milling Company south of Greensboro, to pick up a load of cattle feed so I could feed my cows. Jimmy was manning the register and sharing the news of the day with his customers.

College Students
We older folk get caught up in our businesses and daily lives too much and worry about the economy and such. Sometimes you have to get around young people and get a fix. I shot over at Elon University the other day among students in class and on break, and was struck by the pure optimism and enthusiasm that flowed from them. Wish I could hook a hose up to them and siphon off a bit.

Oil Change at Alvin’s
I stopped by Alvin’s Automotive in Grays Chapel, North Carolina on Saturday morning to get my car inspected. I found Alvin Ward, my cousin’s husband, changing the oil in a car. When he’s not restoring old cars, Alvin’s provides repair and maintenance for neighborhood vehicles and acts as a center for local news and entertainment.

Portrait, Old Greensboro
(Photograph copyright 2009 by Dan Routh)
Sometimes you happen upon photographs and sometimes they happen upon you. I was leaving my studio yesterday on Elm Street in Greensboro to walk up town to shoot a quick job when I heard from behind me, “Mister, take our picture.” I swung around and caught this couple enjoying the mild sunny weather.

Black & White Portrait of an Old Friend
(Photograph copyright 2009 by Dan Routh)
We have been out most of the week shooting photographs of outdoor apparel and workwear for a catalog. An old friend of mine, Terry Sheppard, was kind enough to let us shoot at his shop in Randolph County. Terry runs Piedmont Generator where he services and sells residential and commercial electrical generators. He also repairs and rebuilds all kinds of heavy equipment. If it’s mechanical, he can fix it, and if it can’t be fixed, he’ll redesign and rebuild it. His is an extraordinary talent.
