OPEN HOUSE JUNE 9th Blues Creek Guitars UPDATES
Hi Folks!
It was great seeing old friends and new! For those that missed The Martin Tour lots of images! It was a great, off the regular tour, adventure through the Factory and the wood Dept. Also, images from the Museum. The lighting in the Museum is moody and deliberate. So, I used no flash for the images. While in the Museum I ran into Dick Boak and got to meet two members of the band Kansas that were there to plan with Dick a (Gulp) 35th anniversary guitar for Dust in the Wind.
The rest of the tour is understandably Flash free. Chisels and flashes of light are a bad recipe.
All images are low rez 125 DPI. If you want prints at a nominal cost or need Higher resolution images for Publiction or other uses contact me John Kitchen/iSimon Photography at;
ibisimon@hotmail.com
The Low rez images are stored on Photobucket. After you click the link you can choose Slide show. Grab a coffee, there's 357 images so far!
The images start with the Tour of Martin and then Blues Creek, then a few more Martin / Nazareth Photo from another camera at the end. Enjoy!

John and Brenda,
Thanks for your hospitality yesterday. This was my first time at a BCG open house. Just like every time I see you I learn so much.

Re: OPEN HOUSE JUNE 9th Blues Creek Guitars UPDATES
As always, I thoroughly enjoy spending a few days with my good friends John and Brenda, and enjoyed having my wife with me this year.
Thanks to John Kitchen, she's now an expert guitar photographer!
Great meeting all the rest of you and if I wasn't so close to 60, I might remember some of the names.

If you can't do something well, learn to enjoy doing it poorly.
