K DUNLAP > 08.18.09 = Following my theme this week of favorite local foods;  THE HOT FUDGE CAKE from Frisch's Big Boy!  Two pieces of chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream in between; thick hot fudge rolling down the sides; topped with whipped cream and cherry.....good heavens!   JenniferD was wondering if they still had the hot fudge cake the other day with my shot of the Big Boy, now you have your answer,  Ohhhhh yeeeaaahhhhhhhh!   
This was fun to photograph, however, it did start to melt after a several minutes...see more of my shots here;  .http://kdunlap.smugmug.com/gallery/7050292_Qb6m7/1/624242734_wZNw3

K DUNLAP > 09.17.09 = Sorry Digby, but you have to wear the cone.  I don't think he really minds it all that much that's just his pity look.  It's that time of year for allergies and this poor little guy just can't stop licking and biting his feet, so he has to wear the cone. The Digger is my sister Kasey's dog.  He is a little over 10 now and such a sweetie.  We call him a "Blarney Terrier"  We think he is mix between a Wheaten Terrier and a Golden Retriever.  He is a gentle soul.

Thank you to all who voted for Gracie yesterday!  Wow, was I surprised when I got home last evening to see her mug as the No. 1 daily yesterday!  That really made my week!

K DUNLAP > 08.17.09 =  SKYLINE CHILI!!!  To follow yesterdays post, my topic this week is local food.  Even if you have never been to Cincinnati, you may have heard of "Cincinnati Style Chili".  We like our chili a little bit different here; over speghetti. A 3-way is spaghetti topped with chili and cheese; 4-ways, the same with your choice of beans or onions added and a 5-way, both beans and onions added.  The chili is not a tomato base or a Texas style chili it has a touch of cinnamon and some say, chocolate in it.  The secret family recipe is kept in a safe!  My favorite are the cheese coneys; little hot dogs with chili, mustard, onions topped with a mountain of cheese.  Oh, and dont forget the oyster crackers on the side!  Skyline chili, a hometown favorite!

K DUNLAP > 07.04.09 = Happy July 4th everyone.  Although, I'm a day late because I post from the previous day.  I went to the local 4th of July parade yesterday.  You just got to love the local parades, with the kids on their bikes and the veterans in classic cars....  This was one of my favorite shots.  The color version is nice but there was something about the B&W that made you think about it more and it really became timeless.  
Hope you all had a great 4th!
K DUNLAP > 09.05.09 = Welcome to the world, Ian Mitchell Straub!  A very good friend of mine just had a baby and I was able to do the first photo shoot for the announcements!  This was my favorite from the shoot.  Too cute the little smirk on his face.  Looks like he is already up to something.  

Sorry for my sporadic posting and commenting.  I have been very busy with mulitpal projects at home, work and of course, photography.

Hope everyone has a safe and happy Holiday weekend!   Kris :D
K DUNLAP > 06.04.09 = I have been challenging myself to work with Photoshop to learn the program a little better.  I don't do much pp to my photo's, maybe a crop here or there or a quick color tweek.  Many of you use frames and effects and I keep thinking I need to give it a try and see what I come up with.  

Yesterday's post was a shot using framing, today I used layers and I completely changed the color saturation. I was going for that "shabby chic" look here.

It's FRIDAY!  Have a great weekend everyone!
