| 摘要： | Capt. Todd Butts doesn't consider himself an artist.So Butts, 53, was surprised when a friend approached him after seeing some of the photos he has taken while on the towboat he captains for Ingram Barge Company, the mv. Y.S. Chi."He contacted me and asked me if I was interested in having a showing with my pictures," he said. "I told him I'd never really thought about it."In the end, Butts gave the friend a thumb drive full of pictures, and the friend selected the ones he wanted, framed them and displayed them at the Janice Mason Art Museum in Butts' hometown of Cadiz, Ky.Some of the pictures sold quickly."I donated all the money to the museum," Butt said. "We did pretty well."Butts has taken a lot of photos of his work since starting with Ingram in November 1988 as a green deckhand."I take a lot of pictures because a lot of people at home, they don't know what wedo," he said. "I take pictures of the guys working and the locks, just to give them an idea of what's going on."Butts posts most of his photos on social media. He has also sent some to the RiverWorks Discovery Center to use in teaching children about the navigation industry. |
