We are pleased that a number of our photographs were selected to be used in the Town Planner Calendar which is circulated in the CSRA fall.  This is a great calendar with useful information about community events and coupons, too. The Southern Magnolia Blossom on the cover is one of Ruth’s floral art prints.  Ruth is currently taking an online class with an artist in New York, Patri Fehr who has a unique way of capturing flora for prints and other types of images. Check back into see her posts as the class progresses.

As you open up to January it features icy holly berries that Ruth, who is also called Gigi by associates in the art/photography world shot during an ice storm that we had a few years ago.  Lately our winters have had very cold days, but not much in the way of scenic precipitation!  March is a pasture scene with horses in rich greens and takes you into spring that Gigi also shot.  May honors our veterans with an image of a young cadet visiting the traveling Viet Nam Memorial which was here in Augusta last summer.  The memorial is truely a remarkable monument and evokes emotions to all who visit it.  We were fortunate to have it sponsored and brought here to Augusta again.  The image Ruth submitted was selected, but Warren’s image of Fireworks from the 4th of July Celebrations on the Riverwalk were featured in July.  December featured the Gate Keepers House at Savannah Rapids decked out with Christmas lights and ribbons.   We’re already planning what to submit for next year!

The images above may vary from the exact ones in the calendar.  The calendar images were all horizontal due to formating requirements.

Prints of the  images can purchased by contacting us at info@geitgey.com.  Pasture Scene with Horses

Lee.. proud Dad to SixProfile of Buddy Holding an American Flag


serves his country as an US Army Chaplain represent

ing the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS).

He has served in Iraq and is currently receiving training to be a hospital chaplain. It has been a treat to

work with the family. They are all precious. Their awesome mother has managed, so far to allude the camera

during the recent session, so I guess I’ll have to stalk her like the paparazzi!

The littlest at two years old is showing his patriotism with his American flag! He’s ready for the 4th of July celebrations.

Stay tuned! These kids have big shoes to fill and great examples to follow.
