Cincinnati Street Photography and Beyond

Rider on the Anderson Ferry

Candid street photography has been a favorite style of taking pictures of moments in time. Since I often carry a camera, I like to take pictures of places, and people to document the location frozen in time. I seldom ever use flash photography for street captures. Great pioneers of flash documentary such as Jacob A. Riis slum photography works. Candid street documentary photo journalism.

There are several styles of candid and street type photography. Many are made to document the time and place of a location or person. These photo journalism captures moments in time that live on to remind people what life was like at that moment in life.

There are numerous times I have captured these moments. Travel overseas, and in and around where I live, makes for good candid street photography.

Moments in time people, places, and things are all styles of candid street type photography. From an action, to a still life of the place and moment in time memories.

Walking the Seven Hills of Cincinnati

Cincinnati, Ohio is built with a downtown area surrounded by seven hills. The Ohio valley area is where Cincinnati is located. The other well known city with seven hills is Rome, Italy. The area has many traditions and a rich cultural history, based in many of the Catholic German and Irish families that once dominated this area.

Hot Air Balloon Illumination Glows

To inflate a hot air balloon for a ride or a balloon illumination glow, you first have to get it somewhat inflated before you can add the heat. The first step is a large fan. The cooler the temps, the faster the hot air balloon will inflate to the full size for a glow or ride.

The time it takes to get the balloon out as well as the basket and other items need to inflate the balloon with hot air can take a while. Dan from Touch the Clouds, who does hot air balloon rides as well as the balloon glows for the local area people.
