FOTOGRAFY FORK

Basics of Forking Fotografer
Our fotografic fork is of many tines.

City & its streets, countryside & its roads, architecture & its details, people & [ their ]
nature, four legged companions & their Zoo brothers +++

The sunny side of being a forking fotografer: we never get bored. The cloudy side: they say, we are hard to identify with a particular photographic genre.

Travel bugs
We love to travel, no matter where to. We enjoy both the city and the nature.

When we’re 64
By then we might trade our fork for a chopstick.

Historic Danville, Part 1

We left the Virginia International Raceway (V.I.R.) and headed to Danville, 
a ville on the Dan, the city once enjoyed a reputation as one of the world's 
major markets of fine smoking leaf. 
It is known as the birthplace of "Bright Leaf Tobacco".

Tobacco Warehouse District occupies about 40 blocks of the downtown Danville,
The Tobacco Warehouse District
... is a mix of factories, warehouses and residential housing constructed between 1870s and 1930s.
