Above+Below Appalachia

Postby rcoomer » Oct 8, 2006 8:02 pm

I want to invite anyone in Southwestern Ohio area to a solo show I am doing at the UC Clermont Art Gallery in Batavia, OH.

The show is called Above+Below Appalachia. It is a combination of my cave and rural scenic images from the Appalachian area, primarily OH and KY.

The reception is this Friday, the 13th, from 7 to 9pm. The show opened October 3rd and runs through the 30th.

Come and celebrate Black Friday with a photographic glimpse of the dark underground, and help save caves and karst. A portion of the proceeds from sales during the show will go to the Rockcastle Karst Conservancy (RKC).

For more information about the show, or RKC check out the website:

Thanks.

I looked at your cave photos. Gorgeous. What's the story on that "Cave Vette"? (It's a car in a cave!)

That was shot at GSP quite a while back during a caver wedding in the cave. Becuase of the commercial treatment and size of the cave, they regularly use a tractor or other vehicles to work on the trail, lights or to prepare for large events, such as when they did the 2001 convention. The vette was used by one of the cavers to bring in the sound system and other supplies for the wedding and following party.

So as a photographer, I couldn't pass up the opportunity for a unique photo, shot with the cave lighting and the lights from the car.
