Hi, thanks for stopping by. I live in Carroll County, OH, here in the foothills of the Appalachians. I hope you find my photos fun and thought provoking, or maybe both. I always enjoy reading other photographers' comments on my work. Have a great day.

Images in Flickrare sized down to make it easier to load them. If you would like a larger file of one of my images for personal use, please e-mail me with the title of the photo. I do not charge for this.

NOTE: License is granted free of charge to any non-profit to use my photos for fund raising events, brochures and newsletters, etc., on condition that you give proper credit to me, Jim Goings - Studiographics. If you need a larger size than what I have uploaded, please feel free to contact me. A photo credit is always appreciated. Permission for the use of my images is granted for personal websites and blogs but is to include a link back to this site and proper credit given to me, Jim Goings - Studiographics.

I have worked on assignment for the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Walsh University, Ohio Historical Society, Stark County (Ohio) Historical Society, Nationwide Insurance, Hospice of Tuscarawas, Stark and Carroll Counties, Carroll County Senior Center (DHS), The Hennis Players, and numerous other venues.

My formal training in photography is in forensic photography through the Ohio Law Enforcement Bureau and the Ohio State Fire Marshall's Office, and a loose apprenticeship with a couple of professional photographers in Northeast, Ohio. Stan kept me busy with various photojournalism assignments and Mike taught me the ins and outs of wedding photography. I never quite forgave Mike for his help.

Always do the best you can, but remember, there is always someone better, no matter how good you are at what you do. You can learn from others by emulating, not copying, their work.

The thing about photography is that you never stop learning.

Notice to anybody who is planning to post links to advertise a site that is not related to flickr in my comments, I will delete the comment and block you, I don't appreciate being used to advertise your products or sites.

I always have a camera at the ready.

Canon EOS, Sony Alpha, Panasonic Lumix, Fuji Finepix, Minolta (Film), Rollei (Film) and other antiques. Lenses range from 18 mm to 2,000 mm with adaptors for most of my cameras for macro and extended tele.
