photography of place

Well, I'm back on the blog. It's been a while since I've signed in, but I think I'm here to stay this time; that is, if you'll accept me :)



To all:


I was checking out Caleb Chancey's fabulous website this morning (always good if you're in need of a little inspiration). As I'm attempting to absorb a piece of his creative genius, I roll across an image of the place where I happen to be taking guitar lessons. The shop scrolls onto my screen and the suspender-wearing, concentrina making owner, Bob Tedrow, is featured to the left of the page holding one of his prized instruments. Immediately, I was intreged.


Homewood holds claim to an unrefined yet whimsical muscial instrument company self-entitled none other than the Homewood Musical Instrument Company. Unlike your ordinary music store, this corner shop unpholds the hard to come by tradition of designing and making instuments, where one side of the store is reserved soley for the workshop. It's a pockek of Birmingham that I'm proud to be a part of; however small my part may be ;)
