Picture of the Day Challenge—Day 1

Our "pet" chickens, Little and Nugget. (Photo by Rodney A. Margison) Earlier today, my wife, Linda—the writer—challenged me to something of a family duel: She will blog every day during the month of September if I will create a new photo each day.

A change in surroundings helps renew creativity

The Roebling Suspension Bridge over the Ohio River, Cincinnati, Ohio. It is amazing what a change of scenery can do for a photographer's perspective. Recently, I made the two-hour trek to Cincinnati for a weekend so I could visit a good friend and hopefully renew myself creatively. In a nutshell, I succeeded.

St. X Magazine Cover

Last August, I had the fantastic opportunity to return to Kentucky Speedway to photograph the Indy Racing League and Indy Pro Series races there. It had been several years since I'd shot motorsports and, fortunately, it didn't take long for me to feel like I was back in the saddle. I took the assignment to accompany my good friend Mark Motz, director of publications and [...]

I'm not sure what that says about me, but much has changed since last June, all for the positive.In September, I began renting studio space in downtown Nashville where this photography business now calls home. It's on the third floor of the very historic Village Green Building, less [...]
