It’s not everyday you run into a musician-iguana duo, so it was great to meet , aka Mitch Cottingham and Gingerbread, at the Swamptown Getdown this evening.

Splendid sunset views over the Satilla River, looking west-northwest from over U.S. 84 just outside Waycross.

One of the many fun aspects of drone photography is the ability to look straight down on a subject and find interesting compositions and patterns.

Here are some I’ve collected around Waycross, including a few from my flight over the Satilla River yesterday.

Here are a few aerial looks at the U.S. 84 bridge project on the Satilla River, captured this evening.

Bonus: A pair of quintessentially American scenes juxtaposing the man-made and the natural – an under-construction Dollar General backdropped by a glorious sunset 😁

I love shooting live music. The energy, the body language, the facial expressions - it’s all so dynamic, and no two images are the same.

In this Swampfest scene during Little Satilla’s set, I was playing around with the big spotlight as a means to frame the band, or in this case, the drummer, Scott Jacobs. It’s no award winner, but I kind of like how it turned out.

All four bands on Swampfest Main Stage were 🔥this weekend. Great work by Swingin' Medallions, The Tams, Little Satilla and Derrick Flowers Music!
