How many people still know the old hand/arm signals for right turn, left turn, and slow down/stop? He does!

One of my favorites. I really like Auburns, they had unique styling unlike any others from the time, especially the boat-tailed speedsters:

Now this looks like fun! Some old Ford hot rod:

Another of my favorites. A LaSalle, which was made by Cadillac. They were a lower priced car than the flagship Caddies:

WOW, you guys are on FIY-AH!

This is Jimbo Mathus last night at The Hi-Tone in Memphis, TN.
If you ever liked the Squirrel Nut Zippers, this is the man that formed them.
He was lead guitar and vocals at times. Now there is a distinctively more
catfishy bent to his music, and man can he play. You might have a chance
to see him soon, in fact I know he is in Birmingham next weekend. Good guy,
take the time to talk with him if you can.

COOL MIG shot, Ron!

Here is another one from the Jimbo Mathus show this past weekend, this time after one of his two special guests
came up. I understand there are very few of you who know or care much about the current state of Delta Blues
and Mississippi Music in general, that's Cody Dickinson of the North Mississippi AllStars playing with Jimbo, his brother
Luther was supposed to come by as well but his wife stepped in and put an end to his Saturday Night of music. NMAs
had just played a free show at the Band Shell in town, and I guess she had plans for his a55 that did not involve another
late night playing. I know it's soft, but it was a throwaway shot that I felt like not throwing away.

And one more with just Jimbo Mathus.......

Had to FAKE this one, I am sorry to do this to you guys, the SHOT is real, but I got kicked off this spot
SECONDS before the moon rose. I got here a good 45 minutes before moonrise, shot a lot of waiting
around shots, then I could sense that the moon was hiding behind some atmospheric 'noise' on the horizon.
Then some buttwipes came up and asked me if I had permission from the landowner to be there, and I told
them plainly "nope". I had been packing up before they got there, but dragging a55 a little waiting for the moon.
Once they came down, I moved a little faster and was packed fully before they got to me. I walked up the bank
to my car, NO MOON visible, and I 5hit you not, as I am driving AWAY, I see the moon in my rearview mirror.
This is exactly how it looked, I had to fake (badly) the reflections on the river. I was going to turn around and
shoot it, but the buttwipes had told me that they had texted the landowner to say there was a strange vehicle
behind the wire in his field. So I thought "F it, I can fake that easy enough." But the reflections were VERY
difficult to do BADLY. I can't imagine how hard it would be to do it RIGHT. I just did not need the drama of
an Arkansas farmer with an attractive nuisance property to deal with, lecturing me or shooting me.

I went to my other spot last night to do a little photography coaching
for the guy that bought my last Nikon D200. So I will share those in
th days to come, but here are a few more from the previous night, when
the moon was still gloriously full.



The next shot is a bit of a pre-cursor to last night's shooting, something of a deja vu
for me, but the night I got this shot, I was strictly getting the heck out of dodge for
the evening, and I only stopped here because it was mostly on the way.

Next time that happens, take some photos of the guys in question. THAT'LL teach 'em!!!
