entry description
Step inside the Rack & Cue on a Friday night, and you’ll swear you walked into an old Paramount Pictures set. The building that’s housed the pool hall in Cullman, Alabama since 1963 was a movie theater in the 1940s. Vintage theater seats still line the walls. Hand-painted murals of former patrons cornice the room. Original tin panels checkerboard the ceiling. And smoke fills the air like a Rita Hayworth film.about the photographer
My grandmother spent her entire life on a dairy farm. She never traveled more than a hundred miles from her home. When I would show her one of my pictures of the Tetons or Alaska, she'd say, "David, I'll never get to see those places in my lifetime, but I get to see them through you." Just as with my grandmother, I hope my photography transports people to the far corners of the earth, as well as the local "Hole in the Wall.I love to write. I love to take pictures. I love to travel. This is my Holy Trinity.
