About me

My photo
Joe Konz
I am a retired career newspaperman who enjoys photography as a hobby and creative outlet. I grew up in Wisconsin and lived there for 19 years. Most recently, I spent 33 years in various assignments at The Indianapolis Star before retiring in 2012. In July 2017, after almost 39 years in Indy, I moved to a community outside Raleigh, N.C. Photo Potpourri is an endeavor to meld my prose background with the images I pursue as a photography enthusiast -- with an emphasis on the images. In the 17 years since Photo Potpourri launched, the blog has evolved into a photographer's log, chronicling opportunities I've had to photograph people, places and things. I've recently launched a second blog, Travelin' Shutterbug, to present photos and share information from my sundry travels. Please note that all images appearing in my blogs are protected by U.S. copyright laws. In Title 17 of the U.S. Code, copyright is a form of protection to creators of “original works of authorship,” including literary, dramatic, musical, artistic, and certain other intellectual works.
