Mr. Hamm goes to the Capitol.
by Richard
A few weeks ago I headed to the Georgia State Capitol in downtown Atlanta to shoot the first day of the 2013 State Legislature for the second time. It’s a definite change of pace from the small town politikin I’m used to in Athens. The grandiose of the Capitol makes enough pictures by itself. I spent most [...]

Wild Rumpas 2012 – Athens,Ga.

UGA Football 2012 Season Update
by Richard
Here’s a look back at the 2012 UGA football season so far. I’ve took a break from the road games this season sticking to the home turf of Sanford Stadium. Georgia Bulldogs fans cheer as Georgia Bulldogs running back Todd Gurley (3) scores his second touchdown in the first half as Georgia takes on the [...]
Bulldawg Brawl at the Georgia Theatre
by Richard
Had a good time with this. Every once in a while a group of UGA amateur boxers get together and beat the crap out of each other at the Georgia Theatre with door sales benefitting local charities. It’s always dark with interesting lighting. I can usually get by shooting concerts at the Theatre but the lighting [...]

From Burma to Georgia – Karen Refugees of Comer
by Richard
A few weeks ago I worked on a story with colleague Andre Gallant about a group of Karen Refugees that have gone from Burma to Thailand and ended up in Comer, Ga. Andre’s three part series does a far greater job explaining the story that took them from rural Southeast Asia to rural Georgia greater than I [...]

Keep Calm & Look at the cute Elk
by Richard
Well, I’ve gone and done it again. I wiped my blog and website again in an attempt to fix some DNS issues that were plaguing my site. Time to hit the restart button….again. Keep calm and look at this elk and bird playing I shot last April in Rocky Mountain National Park. Tweet
