Graceland Cemetery (Winter)



While not the Famous Graceland it is still a pretty nice cemetery. The cemetery is located adjacent to the Big Four Railroad Bridge off of County Road 25A just outside of Sidney. I took these during a moment of insanity as I braved the cold to take some winter pictures.



A brief search on the Internet did not turn up much history. Hopefully I will have more on that in a future post.

Covered Bridge Tawawa Park (Winter)



The William Ross Covered Bridge in Tawawa Park in Sidney Ohio is one of my favorite subjects to photograph when I am in the park. The bridge was dedicated in 1971 and closely resembles several covered bridges constructed in Central Ohio by bridge designer, Rueben L. Partridge (1823-1900).

To get this picture I had to venture out in the cold, single digits no less. Surprisingly I was not the only lunatic out and about on such a cold morning. I ran into three people out walking their dogs. BURRRRRRR
