Ok, so a few things to report. I've officially decided to take this website in to multiple directions. I've recently updated the look of this site in anticipation of this change.

bobshull.com will act as a landing page or gateway for a few different websites I have planned and in the works. I'll pull in and group the latest photos linking off to the each site. I also plan to keep a general blog, and hopefully keep it updated :)

I'll currently be breaking bobshull.com up into three different website entities.

The first being bobshulloutdoors.com. This site will showcase wildlife, landscapes, waterfalls, and other related outdoor photography.

The second domain being bobshullphotography.com, this site will showcase people, weddings, studio work, street photography and the like.

The third site and the one I'm most excited about will consist of two different domains, ArkansasWildflowers.org and OzarkWildflowers.org. OzarkWildflowers.org will be the facing domain with arkansaswildflowers.org forwarding to the same site.

I'm really excited to start a site dedicated specifically to wildflowers. I'm hoping to make this site a collaborated effort. I plan to reach out to a few other photographers whom I admire to help build this site into something special.

These changes are currently underway, but it may be a few weeks or so before I have everything in place to start making the updates live. I have a lot of work ahead of me. The biggest task being making sure I have the correct forwards in place to maintain my search engine rankings.

Red Barn Publishing recently contacted me about photographing two Arkansas families for articles in two of their Fall 09 agriculture magazines.

I was really excited about the opportunity. I had six photos published in the Fall 2009 issue of Massey Ferguson Farm Life Magazine and another two photos published in the Fall 2009 issue of AGCO Advantage Magazine.

I had a great time doing these shoots, and hope to have the opportunity to work with Red Barn Publishing again soon.

I was ecstatic to see my son Bryan pick up two first place finishes for his photos in the Nature and Animal categories.

Pictured below with his award winning photos. Congrats Bryan!!!

I'm excited to announce that I had three photos published in the Capture Arkansas coffee table book that was presented by the Arkansas Democrat Gazette. Over 32,000 photos were submitted for publication, 200 were published in the book.

I also won an award for my "Tucked Away" photo.

This was such a fun contest. Along the way I met several great and talented photographers. I am truly honored to have met them. I continue to follow their work. They not only inspire me, but they are wonderful people that have gone out of their way to teach, encourage and share their love of photography.

Tucked Away, my prize winning photo: published in the Nature category.

The Senior Walk: published in the Institutions category.

Inquisitive: published in the Pets category.
