At the races.

AOA is taking it easy this week, enjoying a lot of the great stuff Capital Region summers have to offer. (Yes, ice cream will be involved.) While we're away, a few local photographers will be sharing how they see summer in the Capital Region.

When Crystal Powell isn't out enjoying a great diner breakfast or making cool stuff to sell on Etsy, she enjoys taking pictures. Sometimes she enjoys taking pictures while she's doing those things.

Today's photos are from Bennett Campbell. We're always interested in the world as he sees it -- whether it's local events, the Adirondacks or abandoned buildings. One of Bennett's photos was recently named an honorable mention at the 33rd Photo Regional at the Albany Center Gallery.

AOA is taking it easy this week, enjoying a lot of the great stuff Capital Region summers have to offer. (Yes, ice cream will be involved.) While we're away, a few local photographers will be sharing how they see summer in the Capital Region. First up: Kim Dunham.

Kim Dunham has a great sense of style and a wonderful eye for capturing the simple beauty of everyday things. More than once we've thought we'd like to live in the world she photographs. After the jump, a look at the simple things that make up Capital Region summers, through Kim's lovely lens.
