Friday's Fotos ~ Saturday Edition...     Lawdy, Where did Friday go? Talk about being a blur. Hopefully things will be a little less hectic today...     As many of you may know, I'm prone to get into my right mind from time to time and go wander mindlessly behind the pixels, lost in my own little world. Every now and then, I stumble upon something unique. Thankfully, no one was around to see what position I had to get into to take this one... 09/16/2011

McGavock Farms ~ Brentwood, TN...     I shot this video of McGavock Farms, an impressive, upscale, luxury neighborhood in Brentwood, TN yesterday. Videos such as this are pretty quick and easy to produce.      In this video, I started with a script. I planned out first, on paper, what I wanted to say, accomplish and what I wanted the final product to look like. Once on paper, I set about putting it together. I drove slowly through the neighborhood (10 MPH) with the camera pointed at a 30 degree angle to the road. I have seen several videos where the camera is pointed down the road. Folks don't want to see the road, they want to see the subdivision.      Be mindful of lighting. Where is the sun? Shooting into back-lit houses produces poor quality video and will turn your audience off.   ... 09/13/2011

Brentwood Tn Homes sales increased 12 percent in the month of August 2011 with 61 Brentwood Tn homes sold compared to 54 homes sold in 2010. Brentwood Tn homes prices increased 9 percent from an average price of $553,995 in 2010 to $602,673 in August of 2011. Any way you look at it, the market for Brentwood Tn homes is better than it was last year at this time, and with 76 Brentwood Tn homes currently pending, I expect sales to continue to improve.  Expect prices to continue to rise, and inventory levels to continue to shrink. Builders are building custom homes on demand, but spec houses are still a very small percentage of the existing inventory. Brentwood Tennessee has the best schools in the state with the lowest taxes and spacious homes on large lots.  It's a very nice place to live... 09/13/2011

The Last Hurrah's of Summer...     The colors are quickly draining from the flowers in the garden here at my home in Brentwood, TN; however, there is still a lot of activity from the flying flowers as they zip to and fro from the array of late blooming zinnias in my garden. Yesterday afternoon, there must have been over 50 of these Skippers feeding on the nectar and enjoying the last hurrah's of Summer... 09/13/2011

Isn't the austere design by the Grand Master just awesome? Enjoy... 09/10/2011

Nashville Home Inspection - Electrical Wiring Conduit, What's Wrong With This Picture?  9.8.11 Please see the picture below.  You are looking at the exterior of a house where the house connects to a garage.  The house is on the left, the garage roof on the right.  Look at the shiny stuff in the middle of the picture.  What's wrong? HINT:  Exterior electrical conductors should normally be housed in protective conduit.    ANSWER:  Normally exterior electrical wiring should be installed inside protective conduit.  This conduit is normally a rigid metal product.  Aluminum foil is a poor substitute for proper conduit.

Get Over Yourself...      In teaching seminars that I put on for folks in the real estate community, I hear the same old excuses day in and day out. If I have heard them once, I have heard them a thousand times.     In this video clip I titled, "Get Over Yourself", I introduce a new character to my series. At the time, I shot this, I was kicking around a name but had not chiseled it in stone. Maybe, I'll run a contest to give this person an official name.     If you have any specific questions, email me at radnorlakephotography@gmail.com. If, I like your question I will use it in one of my segments.     The content for this post has also been placed on my website, RadnorLakeVideo.com. I will be posting this series to my site.

     One of the best kept secrets in the Brentwood, TN park system is Deerwood Arboretum. Located at the end of Deerwood Lane, off Johnson's Chapel Road, Deerwood Arboretum was originally the site of the Brentwood sewer facility. When the EPA, forced the closing of this facility in 1983, the land set vacant until 1991. With the help of the Rotary Club, this 27 acre site was converted into a city park.     Nestled on the banks of the Little Harpeth River, Deerwood Arboretum offers a quiet, peaceful setting for those seeking solitude or a stroll down its many walking trails.      Deerwood Arboretum is a State Certified Arboretum, which showcases 69 species of trees, native to the Middle Tennessee area. The large grassy meadows, are excellent places to toss out a blanket, watch butterflies... 09/04/2011

Turn Photo Ops into Video Ops...          As professionals in the real estate industry, we are constantly being invited to events. Last Thursday, I was a sponsor at the vendor fair hosted by the Williamson County Association of Realtors (WCAR). There were about 100 agents and 30 vendors present. It was a wonderful fund raising event and an excellent opportunity to network.      While events such as this make for great photo ops, they make even greater video ops. Remember that less than 3% of real estate pro's use video? I noticed that there were several folks taking photos, however, there was only one who was doing video - me.      Separate yourself from the rest of the pack. Do what no one else is willing or wants to.     Videos don't have to be long to accomplish your point. This shor... 09/02/2011

Friday's Fotos ~ You Never Know When Disaster Will Strike...       Imagine that you are asleep in bed, you are abruptly awakened by the piercing sound of chiming the smoke alarms.

You tell the operator there is a fire at...       This scene takes place hundreds of times a day, all across the nation. Subconsciously, we think we are prepared. We have insurance, but does that cover the cost of loss of property and moreso, irreplaceable memorabilia?      I was awakened at 2 this morning to multicolored lights flickering on the shades.

(not so) Wordless Wednesday...        It has been said that absence makes the heart grow fonder. Then too, there is something about absence or the lack of something that adds intrigue. Yesterday, when I got in from work, the moon flowers were just starting to open and I could not resist their soft fragrance and brilliant white blooms.      Using the power of Photoshop, I cropped, rotated, and tweaked until I banged this out a minute or so later. Moral of story, don't be afraid to take something out of your photos. It may add to the overall composition... 08/23/2011

Why do I need a realtor to buy a new home? - Here is an example of why the answer is yes.  I have a home listed that has a few problems. The home is only a few years old, it's 4 sides brick with a covered porch, nice kitchen, hardwood floors, screened porch, great master bedroom and bath. Ok, so now you say, whats the problem. First of all, the neighborhood was build beside a TVA right of way, so not long after the home was built, giant power lines appeared on the edge of the neighborhood. Not really close to the house, but it's the most obvious landmark from the screened porch. They had no idea that it was planned.  Then you have the secondary bedrooms. At 9 feet wide with a window, you don't have much room for bedroom furniture. When they bought the home, the neighborhood was about 25... 08/22/2011

The Ellis House At Mulberry Hill Historic Home of Williamson County 9170 Concord Road Brentwood, TN 37027 For Sale Part 1 - The Kitchen Restoration The concept of preservationist Debbie Laster was to maintain as much original intent usage as possible and when she began the demolition of some of the kitchen structure to make the many upgrades including all new plumbing and gas lines she found a treasure in the attic above the kitchen. A friend of Debbie's noticed that the original ca 1830 hand hewn beams were still supporting the roof and then it was decided that the wall between the dining area and the kitchen should be removed and the ceiling raised to 12 feet to showcase these fantastic beams and create the original style open kitchen as it would have been constructed many years ago i... 08/13/2011
