(or, why you can't just point your camera at something and press the button)
A bad photo is easy to spot. Even a lay person knows a bad photo when she sees one. The only people who don't seem to notice bad photos are the people who take them.
You know the sort of image I mean. Just go to Facebook and click on any random friend's collection of family and vacation photos. Sure, some are going to be great because some people have a better natural eye for composition than others. But a lot of them are going to be bad. Kids in chaotic clusters trying to chase a soccer ball. People who appear as tiny specs in front of giant landmarks. Seascapes with no sense of dimension. Where did all these images go wrong?
The good news is, a lot of these classic photography problems can be fixed with a better understanding of composition. Yes, an eye for photographs can be learned - but like so many other subjects learning to have a photographer's eye requires a lot of study and practice. And sometimes you need to understand exactly what went wrong so that you can get it right the next time.
Start by keeping it simple
Consciously, a lot of people don't understand the difference between enough and too much. We're consumers, so we like to cram as much stuff as possible into as little space as possible - which is probably why many American garages don't contain any actual cars, just a lot of stuff. Subconsciously, though, we hate how all those crowded spaces make us feel. We like wide open spaces and room to breathe.
Your photos like this, too - or at least your photo's viewers do. They may not even know it, but your viewers are drawn to images that are simple.
That means you shouldn't have any extra stuff in your photos. Your photo should be about a subject, and anything else in the photo should compliment that subject. If it distracts from your subject, it doesn't belong in the photo. Distracting elements create chaos, and chaos is what makes us groan every time we walk in to that overstuffed garage. You don't want your viewer to look at your photo the same way he looks at Spring cleaning.
Even landscape photos can suffer from too much of a good thing. Have you ever wondered why that should-be-amazing photo you shot at your last visit to a national park just doesn't look very good? It could be because you have a patch of wildflowers in one corner, a road in another, a pond in the middle, a clump of trees over to the left, a mountain range on the right and a couple of lovely puffy clouds in the sky. That's sensory overload. It all looked beautiful in person because your eye didn't try to take it all in at once. In a photo, your viewer is forced to take it all in and it's just too overwhelming. The image lacks a subject, because you've tried to make everything a subject.
In the above example, you can make a better image by focusing on the single element you want as a subject, and then include only those things that compliment it rather than the ones that distract from it. If the mountain range is reflecting in the pond, focus just on the mountains and the pond. Crop out the wildflowers, the clump of trees and the road. You may be surprised by how greatly improved your images are when you just focus on a single subject and one or two compliments.
Let's look at this example:
This was absolutely breathtaking in person, I swear. But in a photo, not so much. The reason? Like the example above, there is no subject in this photo. "Beautiful scenery" is not by itself a subject. A subject is that mountain, or those trees, or those rocks. This photo is a mountain and some trees and some rocks.
Now look what happens if I shoot from a different location, and focus on the mountain as my subject:
I still have a little something in the foreground to provide dimension, and I have that small lake to compliment my subject. But there can be no doubt that the mountain itself is the subject of this image, and that makes it more compelling than the first shot.
Another way you can create simplicity in your images is by surrounding your subject with - you guessed it - nothing. Make sure there is plenty of space around him, her or it. This doesn't necessarily mean blue sky or a plain white background, but if there's any chaos in the distance you should try angling it out or blurring it with a wide aperture. If you can't get rid of the distractions, zoom in closer. If you're trying to capture a portrait, for example, don't forget that a face or part of a face can be just as striking as a head and torso.
Don't be afraid to crop. If an image seems chaotic to you, it probably is - but that doesn't mean it can't be saved. Cropping out some of those distracting elements in post processing can save a potentially bad image. And don't forget, a photo doesn't have to be a 2x3 ratio - make it square, if you have to, or a little longer than a standard sized image. Crop it in any way you need to to make that subject become more of a subject and less just another element in a chaotic composition.
Now move on to the rule of thirds
Did you know that almost any photograph can be improved simply by moving your camera a little bit to the left or a little bit to the right? That's the beauty of the rule of thirds, and it's most likely something you already do. You may even do it without realizing it.
The rule of thirds simply says that you should usually position your subject in the right, left, top or bottom third of the frame rather than in the center. Many DSLRs even give you the option to show a grid in your viewfinder that will help you position your subject. The grid looks like this:
To use the rule of thirds grid, you will simply move your camera so that the subject is in one of those thirds, or at the intersection of one of those thirds.
Now you may be wondering why this works. The simple answer is because human beings see the world as something that is constantly in motion, and they want to view photographs that way, too. A photograph, though, is static and without movement, so a photographer needs to imply that movement in order to satisfy the eye of his viewer. Yes, this is true even with subjects that don't move, such as flowers and landscapes.
If you place your subject exactly in the middle of the frame, you've created an image without movement. The viewer's eye lands there and then essentially gives up, because there's nowhere else to go. But when your subject is in one of those thirds, your viewer's eye has to move in order to find that subject, and/or move away in order to anticipate where that subject might go next. This gives the entire image a sense of movement. It also allows interaction between the viewer and the subject.
Let's look at some examples of photos that use the rule of thirds and photos that should have used the rule of thirds.
Here's a photo of my son enjoying an apple at the local apple orchard:
Sure, he's cute. But even I can admit that his cuteness can't carry the whole image. What's wrong with this photo? He's just standing there boringly in the middle of the frame. You don't get the sense that he's ever going to do anything except stand there with his apple surrounded by all those apple trees.
Now watch what happens when I crop the image so he is in the right 2/3 of the frame:
Suddenly, this image becomes more dynamic. We get more of a sense that he's just pausing in the field with his apple, taking a quick snack break before he goes running off to do whatever else it is that little boys do in apple orchards. The reason we get this feeling is because he's got all that space on the right of the image that he can run into.
So should you always use the rule of thirds when you take photographs? Absolutely not. No "rule" in photography is unbreakable, and this is one rule that you should most certainly break from time to time. But before you make that decision you need to fully understand why the rule works and when it is appropriate to break it. For example, if you are shooting an ornate building in front of a reflecting pool and the reflection is just as stunning as the building, the appropriate choice would be to place the line between the building and the pool in the horizontal center of the frame. And because this type of image is about balance, you may also want to make sure that your building is placed in the vertical center of the frame.
Here's a simple example of a successful break of the rule of thirds:
Radiate, plate II by Flickr user henrikj
This is a pretty iconic image of the Taj Mahal, which probably exists in the portfolios of thousands of photographers in almost exactly the same form. The reason is because it works. It's a symmetrical building with a symmetrical reflection, which makes it natural to want to frame the image in a symmetrical non-rule-of-thirds way. Now look what happens when I try to make this image adhere to the rule of thirds:
Oh, no, this photo doesn't work at all when the structure and its reflection are placed in that rule of thirds intersection. That's because this image doesn't need to move. This image is all about balance, and balance is still and peaceful. Balance doesn't need to move because its beauty lies in the balance itself, not in anything that is going to happen in the image.
The Golden Spiral
OK, now that you've been refreshed on the rule of thirds, it's time to get a little more complicated. Now, let me preface this by saying that I'm terrible at math. So I'm not going to try to explain to you the complex mathematical formula behind the golden spiral, because frankly I don't think you really need to know it. And also because I'm terrible at math.
This is all you need to know:
Nautilus BW by Flickr user LRJanzen13
That's a nautilus shell, and it's nature's way of explaining the golden spiral, which essentially says that any photograph or piece of art that is composed in such a way that the lines follow the lines of a nautilus shell cannot fail to be beautiful. The nautilus shell, then, is the definition of artistic and photographic perfection. You will also notice that it roughly follows the rule of thirds. Here it is in its mathematical form:
Here are some examples of images that follow the form of a nautilus shell, otherwise known as the golden spiral:
Rose Spiral by Flickr user nathangibbs
Golden Spiral by Flickr user Ian Muttoo
Now if you're a smart phone user, there are a couple of tools you can get for your phone that will help you learn how to see the world and everything in it through the golden spiral. If you want to make this become second nature, I highly advise that you download and use one of them. If you're an iPhone user the app is called "Sense Cam". For Android users the app is called "Camera Sensor". Both of these apps will apply a golden spiral outline to your phone's screen, which you can use when composing photographs. If you get the hang of using this on your smart phone, eventually you'll start to see that golden spiral in your mind's eye whenever you're using your DSLR, too.
All of this is kind of leading me to my next point, and that's line.
Human eyes naturally want to follow lines. Have you ever watched a toddler walking one foot in front of the other on a line in the pavement? Lines give us a sense of possibility, a sense of places to go and things to see. And now we're back to that idea of movement.
Taken literally, photos are flat and static. Flat and static equals boring. So it's a photographer's job to make an image look like it's not flat and static even when it obviously is. One way to do that is to give the viewer's eye something to follow, like a line. When the viewer's eye is in motion, the photograph suddenly becomes dynamic. It becomes something the viewer thinks he might be able to walk into. That's precisely the feeling you want to create in an image.
You have of course seen those classic images of railroad tracks vanishing into the distance. They're samey, but almost all of them will hold your attention because they all have that one quality: the vanishing point. A vanishing point is a set of converging lines that imply depth. Vanishing point lines also make your viewer's eye move from one end of the image to another. They make your viewer want to get on that train and vanish into the distance, too.
Here's a photo of Seacliff Beach Pier in Santa Cruz, California:
Pier Rio del Mar Beach, Aptos, California by Flickr user Miz Lizzie
This picture is nice enough it gives you a good feeling for the ocean and the cool wood structure of the pier. But it lacks dimension and depth. We don't really feel like we can go anywhere in this image. We're looking straight ahead, and there isn't anything inviting us to step into the image and have a look around.
Now look at this image, taken in the same location from a different angle:
Under the Bridge by Flickr user dwan.mac
Now there's a vanishing point in the image, and suddenly it's much more compelling. Now this pier doesn't just look like a wooden structure stretching from one side of the horizon to another, now it's dynamic. You feel like you want to step into that image and walk from one beam to the next, and maybe get your toes wet in the water. You are invited to come in and explore.
Of course vanishing point is not the only compelling sort of line you can use in your images. You can use curved lines, wavy lines, simple horizontals and verticals and diagonals - all lines will have the same basic effect of drawing your viewer's eye into the photograph. What varies is the mood that each type of line conveys.
Let's look at some examples from Flickr:
Sowing the seeds of tomorrow by Flickr user Christolakis
This image has very clear lines in it, but they are meandering, wavy lines. How do you feel when you look at this photo? For most people, meandering, wavy lines are reminiscent of the lines we see in nature. Rivers meander, sand dunes form wavy lines as they are moved by the wind and elements, and flowers, smooth rocks, beaches and shorelines all have beautiful curved lines.
Curved, wavy lines give your viewer the same sense of peace that she might get while standing in a beautiful natural setting. And because a viewer's eye will naturally follow any line in an image, the curved, meandering line will take the viewer on an equally meandering journey throughout the image, rather than down a straight trajectory.
Here are two examples of a very specific type of line, the "S" curve:
Shell Detail by Flickr user féileacán
An S curve, of course, is any line that is roughly "S" shaped. S curves convey movement, but they also divide a scene into two parts. The S curve can actually be a variation on the rule of thirds, in that many S curve images split the frame into two parts that are roughly 1/3 and 2/3 of the frame.
An S curve (or any line, really) can also be used to draw a viewer towards a subject. Placing your subject at the beginning or end of an S curve will take your viewer's eye on a journey that ends or begins where you've placed your subject.
The direction of the S curve can also affect the way your viewer perceives your photograph. An S curve that starts in the lower left and ends in the upper right will appear to be moving away from the viewer; one that starts in the upper left and ends in the lower right will seem to be moving towards the viewer. This is actually only true for people who speak English or other languages that are written from left to right, which suggests a strong correlation with the way our eyes follow words and the way they follow lines.
Now for your basic horizontal line:
Lines by Flickr user swisscan
How do you feel when you view this image? Does it make you feel at peace? Dreamy? Or even sleepy? Horizontal lines are relaxing. They invite us to lie down and make ourselves horizontal, too. Horizontal lines also give us a sense of stability and timelessness. This comes directly from the horizon itself--which is probably the most stable and timeless horizontal line of them all.
When photographing very straight horizontal lines, it is important to keep them as level as possible. Even a slightly angled horizontal line is going to feel a bit odd to the person viewing it. This becomes less important with imperfect horizontal lines, but is still something you should try to be aware of.
Now how about these vertical lines:
Sunrise, Russian River (September 2012) by Flickr user ejbSF
Vertical lines like the ones in this forest give the viewer a sense of strength and power. This is exactly what you feel when you walk into a redwood forest - a sense of being overwhelmed by the height and enormity of all those trees. Tall buildings can give you the same feeling. They are strong, powerful and imposing. If you want to make those vertical lines seem even more imposing, shooting them with vertical framing should do the trick. This will make tall lines seem even taller, and therefore stronger, and therefore more powerful.
And here are some diagonals:
Nichts recht by Flickr user Postsumptio
If you're like most viewers, this image gives you a sense of action, even though it is a shot of a static structure. The intersecting lines may even seem a little tense. Images that contain diagonal lines are doing something, they are constantly in motion, and it isn't that calm, relaxing motion that you get from mere curved lines or horizontal ones. If you want your image to be really dynamic, include diagonal lines.
Triangles, squares, circles, rectangles - it's all basic geometry. In fact, it's all basic stuff-you-learned-in-kindergarten, too. This is because our world is full of shapes, and even when we are children we recognize how important shapes are. Human beings naturally look for shapes in their environment, which means we are naturally looking for shapes in photographs, too.
Like line, shape is important in photography because it conveys emotion. Shape can also give the viewer a sense of order.
There are two different kinds of shapes. Geometric shapes are the ones that spring instantly to mind and the ones that we learn the names of when were still small children. Geometric shapes are regular - they have straight lines or regular curves and are usually symmetrical, meaning that if you divide them in two the opposite sides will be mirror images of each other.
Organic shapes are the sorts of shapes you find in nature. They can be roughly symmetrical, in the way that a maple leaf or a pine cone can be roughly symmetrical, but in general they are uneven in shape and contain more curves than lines.
Organic shapes suggest freedom, spontaneity and natural beauty, while geometric shapes tend to suggest structure. But individual shapes can have meanings of their own, and it's a good idea to know what those meanings are when you're choosing subjects and settings for your photos.
Here's an example of an image that makes good use of circles:
Circles / Círculos (Abstracción 011) by Flickr user Claudio.Ar
Circles are strongly suggestive of abstract concepts like eternity and harmony. When we look at a circle or a sphere we see something that is complete and without a beginning or an end. Circles can also represent protection and togetherness.
Now look at this image:
Blue Square by Flickr user j neuberger
Can you find the geometric shapes in this image? It's full of squares and rectangles, which give your viewer a sense of stability and structure. Squares and rectangles have even sides, and are therefore structured and reliable. They are also familiar, and their familiarity suggests comfort. We live in buildings that are rectangle, or a series of rectangles, and so we are comfortable with them.
The rule of thirds can help explain why rectangles are so appealing in a photograph or another piece of art. When you divide a simple rule of thirds image into thirds, you get rectangles. But rectangles can of course appear in any size or variation in your image, not just in those rule of thirds dividers. Rectangles and squares can also be used as natural frames, which can add importance and focus to your photographs.
The Lough Boora Triangle by Flickr user David Bergin Photography
An arrow point is a triangle. Can you guess what triangles suggest to most viewers? They suggest movement, direction, action and conflict. Triangles are also great for creating depth in an image--what are two converging lines, after all, but a very long triangle? And because triangles are essentially arrows, they can also be used to direct your viewer's eye towards your subject, essentially telling him exactly where to look.
Now for two easy ones. What do you see in these images?
b/w heart by Flickr user jamedz
+ by Flickr user Milton CJ
The first one is obviously a heart, and hearts represent love and affection. The second is a cross, and crosses symbolize Christian spirituality. Both of these shapes have an almost universal message to English speakers, even those who aren't Christian and don't happen to enjoy Valentine's Day. If the concepts of love or Christian spirituality are in your photographic message, including one of these shapes in your composition is a guaranteed way to suggest this.
Finally, arches. Like squares and rectangles, arches make excellent natural frames. Hearts are composed of arches, so there is a natural suggestion of love and harmony an arch. Arches can also give your viewer a feeling of strength and timelessness--think of the arches that support the ceiling of a cathedral or the natural stone arches in Utah.
Victory of Arches... by Flickr user zilverbat.
If you look through e images you've made in the past, you'll suddenly discover that these shapes are everywhere--look not just at your subject and surroundings but also at the negative space in your image. How do those shapes help create mood? If there aren't any definite shapes, does the image rely on something else to create mood or does it simply fail to convey the message you were hoping it would?
Closely related to all of this is balance. You know about yin and yang, of course, or if not you're at least familiar with the symbol--a mirror image except that one side is black and the other is white. Balance makes your viewer feel comfortable. Images that don't have balance are the opposite of comfortable - a viewer may even feel awkward while looking at them, or he may simply just want to go look at something else. You know the sort of image I mean - a photo where there's something very large in one corner and nothing in the opposite corner. These images feel like they're tipping over.
A well balanced image isn't necessarily a symmetrical one, although it certainly can be. This image, for example (like the Taj Mahal image above), has symmetrical balance:
Saint Vitus Cathedral, Prague by Flickr user szeke
But this one has a different kind of balance:
Boulder in the Desert by Flickr user Eric C Bryan
The balance in the second photo is created with an object that compliments the first one, adds some weight to that opposite corner and makes it feel a lot less like the image is going to tip over.
You can achieve balance a little less literally, too, by using contrasting elements. A photo of two contrasting subjects cannot fail to be interesting. You can also contrast subject and setting make an interesting composition. A man in a suit standing in a cornfield, for example, or a horse standing in someone's living room. Here's an example:
Adrift on a sea of grass -15 by Flickr user Plbmak
This image works because we don't expect to see boats in a field. And when we do see odd things in odd places, it creates a strange sort of balance between the subject and setting.
Now there are about a million other compositional tools that photographers take advantage of all the time. One of these days you'll probably know them all. But in the meantime it is definitely worth your while to master the ones listed here, since they tend to be powerful and also relatively simple to understand and implement.
You and I know, of course, that all rules - especially photographic ones - are meant to be broken. So don't think of these as "rules." Instead, think of them as compositional lessons. Try to master each one and you'll be a better photographer. I promise.
Most people think this post is Awesome. What do you think?
Fantastic article,superbly composed and very informative for me,especially the golden spiral
One of the most complete articles I could read about Composition. Thanks a lot! Please keep me posted!
Thanks for another expertly summarized post, Becki. Really put together well, and much appreciated!
Great article! Reinforced thing I know but explained why the rules make better images. ( just the help I need)
thanks..it is rules like this that i have to keep reminding my self enough that i dont have to remind my self as it come without thingking...thanks
Terrific article. Thanks so much.
In the (2nd) photo of your son, you write, "hes got all that space to the left that he can run into." The space is actually to the right (on my computer anyway).
I was going to make some smartypants comment about southern vs. northern hemispheres getting things turned around - an old joke but a lousy one - until I realized it was you, not David.
Hi Larry,
Actually I think Becki meant her son's left, not our left looking at the photo. But I've changed it to "Right of the photo".

This spring and summer our students have had an amazing opportunity to work in our new garden, which was built last fall. We have been able to see one growing season all the way through from planting to harvest. We have grown tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, okra, herbs, squash, and more. The flowers have been beautifully arranged to provide even more color in our garden and throughout campus. Students have had a part in each step of the process. Daily, the kitchen proudly uses the produce to create some nutritious and creative dishes.
Not only do we enjoy the delicious and beautiful provisions of the garden, but we also are very aware of the therapeutic benefits, as gardens can be an amazing avenue of healing. Here are some of the therapeutic aspects of our garden:
The ability to take ownership
Gardens require ownership and need careful tending. Teens we work with often struggle with feelings of loneliness, not belonging and a lack of purpose. As seeds are planted and life is created, students quickly take on the role of caretakers and get to experience the responsibility, even if in a small way, of maintaining life. Pulling weeds in an effort to protect and nurture life starts to become a requirement for success and provides immediate feedback as to how well they are doing. And with the harvest, teens experience fantastic tasting food and the satisfaction of a completed task.
Empowerment to make decisions
Decisions are always difficult for teens as they struggle to feel confident. Perfectionism can often paralyze behavior and their ability to process information. Fortunately, plants are flexible and forgiving. Making choices and decisions in caring for them offers avenues for trial and error as well as recognition that there is not always a "right" way to garden.
Communication of Emotions
Emotions can often get the best of us, but for teens emotions are often expressed in unpredictable and in unusual ways. We find that our garden provides many fantastic metaphors, which enable teens to express emotions in deeper and more appropriate ways.
Those with eating disorders often view food in a different way. Research suggests that food often takes on a "bad guy" persona. Food actually becomes an object of fear. Those who struggle with eating issues often detach themselves from food and have difficulty feeling safe around it. Being involved in the production of food ties teens back to food. Because of the teen's investment in the food, they are able to slowly change the way they view the purpose and intention of it.
We are thankful for the garden at Shelterwood and are excited to see its therapeutic benefits continue.

Come Out and Celebrate the 38th Season
of Liberty! The Saga of Sycamore Shoals
Sycamore Shoals State Historic Park in Elizabethton boasts a great deal of educational programming and an on-site museum detailing the region's history, and in particular, it's role in the establishment of the United States of America. That history comes to life with the Official Outdoor Drama of Tennessee, known as Liberty! The Saga of Sycamore Shoals! This engaging performance will be enjoying its 38th consecutive season this year.
Several nationally significant events occurred at Sycamore Shoals and the Watauga settlement. The Watauga Association, formed in 1772, was widely recognized as the first continental government that was "free and independent" of the British Crown. This designation was recognized by no less than President Theodore Roosevelt. It was designed by leaders to provide for law and order and the right of every free man to vote. Later, the area was annexed by North Carolina and became known as the Washington District, named in honor of General George Washington, who was leading the fight for American Independence at the time.
At this location, in 1775, The Transylvania Purchase was conducted at the Watauga "Old Fields" where Judge Richard Henderson and other speculators purchased 20 million acres of land from the Cherokee. This negotiation sparked a series of Cherokee attacks on the pioneers of the Watauga and surrounding settlements. Later the purchase was voided, with ample compensation for Henderson, by the states that gained authority over the land.
Liberty! is set in front of the full-scale replica of Fort Watauga, which was used to defend the settlement against attacks from a faction of the Cherokee, led by Chief Dragging Canoe, who opposed the sale. Ultimately, the settlement was successful in staving off the attack and siege of the fort.
These grounds also served as the gathering place for the Overmountain Men, who were an essential part of a broader militia that defeated Major Patrick Ferguson and his British force at the Battle of Kings Mountain in 1780. That event is often noted as a major turning point for the American Revolution.
This play covers these critical developments as well as demonstrating the life of pioneers in a frontier settlement. Moreover, it gives faces to the names we see on many of our street signs and other local area designations. For example, we meet John Sevier, who went on to become the first Governor of Tennessee. We are also introduced to John Carter, and his son Landon, both of whom are reflected in the full name of the Carter Mansion, the oldest frame house in the state. It's preserved by the Park and the associated Friends of Sycamore Shoals group, and open to tours each year from late May through mid-August, Wednesdays through Sundays at 2 pm, or by appointment. Landon also lent his last name to Carter County.
The amazing strength and skills of the local pioneer women are far from neglected in the drama. Another character is Mary Patton, who learned the art of manufacturing gun powder from her father. Her assistance was crucial in the defense of the settlement during the siege. Moreover, she supplied the Overmountain Men with a minimum of 500 pounds of gunpowder for their foray into North Carolina.
We also encounter Catherine "Bonnie Kate" Sherrill, a lively lass who was caught outside the fort during the siege attack, and was rescued by Sevier, whom she later married. While Tiptonville was the original name of Elizabethton, as part of the State of Franklin, it was later renamed for Landon's wife, Elizabeth MacLin Carter, who also appears in the drama.
This is only a partial list of fascinating local contributors to regional and national history, and putting the play on is quite an undertaking. It features professional lighting and sound, a well-maintained amphitheater, as well as an all-volunteer cast of nearly 100 local actors in speaking and extra roles.
Liberty runs Thursdays-Saturdays, July 14 – 16, 21 – 23, and 28 – 30, 2016 in the Fort Watauga Amphitheater at Sycamore Shoals State Historic Park in Elizabethton, TN (use 1651 West Elk Avenue for GPS purposes). And, all of this is provided to local residents and area visitors at a most reasonable price.
General admission tickets range from Free for children under 5, to $5 for students 6 to 17 years, $10 for seniors 55 and up, and $12 for adults.
Tickets can be purchased online at http://www.TheLibertyDrama.com or at the door.
First Night tickets to the opening show on Thursday, July 14th are only $8 for adults and seniors and $5.00 for students.
Veterans Night is on Thursday, July 22nd, where Veterans are formally thanked for their service during the show, and also with free admission for them and a guest.
A Dinner Theater also runs most nights of the play, where for $25 (with seniors/student discounts), one can enjoy an all-you-can-eat, sit-down meal cooked by a prominent local chef, and be regaled with tales of the site prior to the show. The price of the ticket includes your meal and admission to the show. The Dinner Theater requires advanced reservations made at the website listed above, or by calling 423-543-5808.
Likewise, everyone is encouraged to become a member of the Friends of Sycamore Shoals group to help support the Liberty drama, as well as a host of other educational park activities, such as classes in gardening, sewing, Scottish Heavy Athletics, and basketry, to name but a few. The park also plays host to annual Celtic and Native American Festivals, as well as militia reenactments presented by the Washington County Regiment of North Carolina Militia.
Don't be one of the many who say "I've heard about it, but never gone." And, if you've seen it, you're most welcome to come again. Support your local history educators and preservationists; come learn about our history in a fun and entertaining context, and spread the word. We'll see you at the Old Fields!

Bitcoin is the promised reserve asset?admin, · Kategorien: Bitcoin
Bitcoin: How to prevent a dusting attack?
The correlation between Bitcoin and the S&P 500
With the appearance of COVID-19 in the world, the general conditions and premises of the world economy have taken a 180° turn. As a result, we have seen events that seemed distant before.
Since the end of March, the trend in Bitcoin prices and the S&P 500 index has shown a surprisingly similar correlation. The latter can be verified by analyzing the data provided by Skew, which shows that the price of Bitcoin recovered along with the U.S. stock market.
Similarly, Bitcoin began to plummet in the first week of June when stocks fell.
Therefore, some institutions and experts have begun to suggest that what is seen in the stock market from now on, could be replicated in the cryptomoney market.
The latter would call into question the argument and raison d'être of cryptomonies. It is assumed that these were created to be a safeguard against the crisis of traditional markets.
Coronavirus and Bitcoin price: Is it really a refuge of value?
What can we expect from the BTC?
Some financial analysts within Wells Fargo are talking about a possible strong liquidation within the stock market in the near future.
If we follow the premise of the apparent correlation between Bitcoin Era and that market, we could say that BTC could be the victim of a strong correction.
However, we should look at the performance of the BTC and ETH options that are due to expire soon. Options contracts give investors the right to buy Bitcoin at a specific price and date that was previously agreed upon. As they expire, there could be an increase in buying and selling volumes and a sharp increase in volatility.
Also, as many know, this would not be the only factor capable of influencing the price of Bitcoin in the short term. Since Halving, there has been talk of the role that miners play in this. If they suddenly come under selling pressure, it can also lead to a correction in the valuation of this cryptomone currency.

Starting Nov. 2, the $200 cancellation fee will decrease by $10 per month beginning in month six of the contract. This means the early-termination fee, or ETF, could drop to as low as $50 before the contract expires, Sprint said.
"This policy gives customers additional flexibility, as every month of service a customer completes after month six, the amount of their ETF is reduced," said Will Souder, Sprint's VP of operations, in a statement.
The prorated policy will only affect new service agreements signed after Nov. 2, but it can apply to existing customers if they renew their service agreement. This move is Sprint's latest attempt to improve its customer service, which many believe contributed to the company's loss in subscribers. The company also has implemented a 30-day trial period, an in-store phone setup program, and a welcome call program.
ETFs have long been a point of contention in the wireless industry. Carriers argue that ETFs are necessary to help recoup the cost of heavily subsidized handsets that the majority of U.S. customers use. Consumer advocacy groups say the cancellation fees are overly punitive and limit consumer freedom to switch carriers.
These cancellation fees have been the source of several multimillion-dollar class-action lawsuits. The issue has even caught the attention of the FCC, which is mulling a nationwide policy.
Sprint is just the latest to tweak its ETF policy, as Verizon Wireless got the ball rolling nearly two years ago. AT&T said its fees would start at $175 and be reduced by $5 every month over the life of the one-year or two-year agreement. T-Mobile also changed its policy this year, cutting the ETF in half for customers with 91 to 180 days left on their contracts.

IoT connectivity specialist Sigfox has announced that it is now operating its network in 36 countries around the world.
At the Sigfox World IoT Expo in Prague this week, the company restated its mission to offer a consistent level of quality and service for low-power, wide area network (LPWAN) connectivity to anywhere in the world – and announced it has recently expanded into four new countries.
It's achieved this by teaming up with operators in Costa Rica, Croatia, Thailand and Tunisia. In Costa Rica, for example, it has formed partnerships with WND and Cognix to grow its low-cost, low-energy network.
Looking to accumulate know-how with its technologies, the company is also extending its coverage in eastern Europe. In Thailand, meanwhile, it wants to connect hundreds of thousands of objects.

Operators are crucial
Operators play a crucial role in accelerating IoT development in their local markets, and they're working with Sigfox deploy and operate the latest network infrastructure.
These companies have invested almost €100 million to offer access to Sigfox IoT services. Monarch is one of these services, launched this week as the first 'IoT network-as-a-service offering', allowing connected devices to recognise and automatically adapt to communications standards in the world without roaming.
Because Monarch allows assets to adapt as they move across borders, it presents a lucrative opportunities for logistics, freight and consumer goods industries, company executives say.

Other milestones
At the event, Sigfox also announced that Irish operator VT has signed a €1 million IoT subscription with Dunraven Systems. The latter designs and develops ultrasonic fuel tank monitors.
And in Australia, the Clean Energy Finance Corporation (CEFC) has become a cornerstone investor in local partner Thinxtra.
Meanwhile, Singapore-based partner UnaBiz has developed smart pest control system Ratsense, as previously reported by Internet of Business.
IoT Sweden is using the company's connectivity to develop intelligent crop-monitoring devices for smart-agriculture. And Germany company BrakeForceOne is partnering to implement IoT sensors in its electronic bikes and scooters.

Exciting times
Rodolphe Baronnet-Frugès, executive vice president of operators at Sigfox, said that the company was excited to be working with new partners and that the expansion marks a key milestone in its journey to establish a global IoT network.
"We are looking forward to collaborating with our new operators to help their local ecosystems to seamlessly scale IoT solutions wherever the network is present in the world. Together, we're building a future that will be better to live in," he said.

As part of the rebranding process, I led packaging redesign (from raw design to order details) for Fonté Coffee Roaster. This package is a product of our owner's vision, the roaster's production needs, and company branding direction. (We are in the process of transitioning to this new packaging.) The new product design reflects the branding vision of offering a luxury product experience — from shopping to brewing.
The preceding packaging lacked the modern sophistication of the company's new vision. Details such as tasting notes and bean origins were omitted. This redesign fills such voids to increase customer-product connection.
Label colors assigned based off coffee category: blends (red), decaffeinated (silver), special selections (gold), and single origins (orange, green, blue, purple based on sourced region). Pantone Metallic Coated color family chosen for lavish feel and finesse.

Andrew N. Meltzoff, PhD, holds the Job and Gertrud Tamaki Endowed Chair at the University of Washington, where he is the Co-Director of the Institute for Learning & Brain Sciences (I-LABS) and a professor of psychology. Dr. Meltzoff is a Board Member of ZERO TO THREE.
Contributions to the Field
Dr. Meltzoff is a pioneer in the study of infant learning and social understanding. His discoveries about infant imitation have shaped the understanding of learning mechanisms in the first 3 years of life. His research connecting early social-cognitive and language learning has illuminated the origins of human speech and language. In addition, Meltzoff has studied how infants connect self and other, infant gaze following, and the origins of theory of mind. Meltzoff uses infant brain measures (e.g., EEG, MEG) to discover neural mechanisms underlying social-emotional and cognitive development. He has established an outreach division at I-LABS that is dedicated to disseminating research findings and combining research and practice to improve the lives of infants and caretakers.
- University of Washington Center for Human Development and Disabilities; Department of Psychiatry AND Behavioral Sciences; and College of Education
Current Research
Dr. Meltzoff's recent work focuses on infants' sense of touch. He and his colleagues are delineating "body maps" in the infant brain and studying how these neural body maps underlie interpersonal engagement and early skill development. At a more theoretical level, Dr. Meltzoff is working on a theory of infant social-cognition called the "Like-Me" framework. This view holds that infants are interested in the similarities between self and other starting in the first years of life. At first this "like-me" perception takes place at the level of bodies and actions, and then later it encompasses more abstract levels. Dr. Meltzoff seeks to design infant brain measures so that they can complement behavioral observations and jointly provide a more comprehensive picture of development across the first 3 years of life than either taken alone.
Recent Honors/Awards/Recognition/Books Published
Dr. Meltzoff has published more than 200 scientific papers and co-authored three books including The Scientist in the Crib: What Early Learning Tells Us About the Mind. He is the recipient of prizes including the prestigious MERIT Award from the National Institutes of Health for outstanding research and the Kenneth Craik Research Award from Cambridge University and the Kurt Koffka Medal from Germany. Dr. Meltzoff has been invited to present his research to the U.S. Congress, OECD, UNESCO, at the Vatican, and to many national and international media outlets. He received his bachelor's degree from Harvard and doctorate from Oxford.

I feel like this was such a waste of a week. I want to get back to running and feeling human again! Even though I'm not at 100%, I decided that I would enjoy today; sick or not!
My husband and I went with my mom and little brother to a pumpkin patch today. It was a beautiful day, sunny and about 70 degrees. There was a lot to do at our local pumpkin patch. There were slides, pedal carts, pumpkin sling shots, corn maze, hay rides, and much more! We spent about 3 hours of our afternoon in the sun, enjoying the day. That helped me feel a little more human.
|My husband and I, making our way through the corn maze.
|My husband and my little brother.
I wanted to blame my current illness on running in the cold on Monday after work. It was shortly after that run when I started feeling ill. After looking further into this, it turns out that probably wasn't the only thing to blame. Temperature doesn't make you sick, germs do. The temperature during that run probably didn't help, but running in the cold didn't make me sick. That's good news, because once I am better, I plan on doing more outdoor runs and it's only bound to get colder. I have a goal of running hills, speed, then distance each week. This week was shot due to my illness, but I can't wait to get back into it!

Real Estate Trends and the Most Disruptive Force Changing the Economy
Glenn Kelman is the CEO of Redfin, and a keynote speaker at Real Estate Connect this July. Recently, he did a Q&A with Inman about what's changing in the economy and the key real estate trends.
From the new competitive advantage of giving customers what they want, to the last-second economy, Kelman weighed in on a variety of themes that are redefining the real estate customer experience.
The most disruptive (and expansive) force changing the economy
Kelman said what most agents already know, that the most disruptive force changing the economy and consumer behavior is the mobile Internet, but there's a deeper cultural shift in the relationship between companies and their customers happening here, too.
Now that customers can so easily use social media sites like Yelp or Facebook to talk about a brand — for better or worse — businesses have started focusing on maximizing overall profits, by increasing the number of customers who love and swear by their service.
The Internet has made it a lot harder to deceive customers (and why would you want to do that anyway?). In other words, awesome service is the only reliable form of marketing.
Kelman also thinks the last-second economy, in which consumers expect immediate service at the touch of a button on their mobile devices will gain a lot of momentum and pick up speed in the not-too-distant future.
"We think the trends described above will accelerate, but the most transformational is the last one: what Greylock's James Slavet calls the emergence of "end-to-end companies" or Andreessen Horowitz's Chris Dixon calls "full-stack startups." What could a school, a hospital, a research lab (or a real estate broker) be like if it was reinvented by someone with the technical talent and access to capital of Silicon Valley, but a commitment to making a difference in the real world?" Kelman said.
Just take a minute to imagine the possibilities.
Another subject Kelman touched on is customer service
The first step, he says, is simply talking about how to make the consumer experience better. At many real estate conferences, the overwhelming emphasis is on how to meet more customers. But the only sure way to do that is to focus first on what agents rarely talk about: a fundamentally better customer experience.
Forget about that quick sale. Real estate is a people pleasing industry. And like other people pleasing industries, it's all about the customer's experience and how well he or she is accommodated.
"To deliver on that, we as brokers will have to influence the service our agents deliver, and be able to see what's working for our customers and what isn't. If a brokerage wants to stand apart for a superior customer experience, it has to be able to reward agents who deliver on that experience, and fire agents who don't," Kelman said.

S. Indiana city's mayor defends rental ordinance in court
Legal Business - POSTED: 2017/09/04 01:56
Legal Business - POSTED: 2017/09/04 01:56
The mayor of a southern Indiana city is defending a rental inspection ordinance that's resulted in thousands of dollars in fines against property owners and is the subject of a lawsuit.
Charlestown Mayor Bob Hall testified during Friday's daylong hearing in Scott County Circuit Court that the ordinance is needed to ensure safe housing in his Ohio River community.
The News and Tribune reported the Institute for Justice sued the city of Charlestown on behalf of residents in the Pleasant Ridge neighborhood.
The nonprofit law firm's attorneys argued during Friday's hearing that the city broke Indiana law when it fined property owners without first giving them "reasonable time" to make repairs to return to compliance.
The group wants to block Charlestown officials from enforcing the ordinance.

Did you see the brit awards? Rihanna was awesome huh?
Sexy, entertaining, a mix of 3 of her best songs together with a crazy onstage display of backing dancers, fire, glitter, pyro-tecnics and some almost nakedness.
the songs hit number 1 briefly and the video currently has 1.2 million youtube views (so my theory of entertaining people isnt flawed) 🙂
a young girl pops up with nothing but a piano and her vocals, stands in one spot and completly hypnotises the world
Number 1 in 17 countries and 38.2 MILLION views on youtube…
How did this happen?
your best youtube video got like, 38 views right? 😀
ok, i shouldnt laugh, i will explain in a minute
but first…
here is a snippet from wikipedia
The song was inspired by a broken relationship of hers, and lyrically it speaks of Adele coming to terms with it.
The song has received acclaim by music critics, following a well-received performance of the song at the 2011 BRIT Awards, making it her first number one in the UK, and the longest reigning number one single in the UK of the decade so far. It has also become the longest reigning number one single in Ireland in 2011 spending six weeks at number one. It has also topped the charts in New Zealand and Australia. In July 2011, it became the first single of the decade to sell a million units in the UK.
Not sure if you noticed but there is a clue in there
Think about it for a minute, most articles and videos that people call 'their content' are…
shhiiyyyaaattttt, right?
Some half assed piece, thrown together, copied from somewhere else
ok, maybe not copied, but 'put into your own words' 🙂
I know how it goes, i used to be that dude.
While i agree with practice until your freekin eyes bleed
I disagree with practice makes perfect
Well, if you continue to practice summin that doesnt work,
it wont just 'start to work'…
you need to be heading down the right path so to speak
Back to Adele…
everytime i hear it, it still has an effect on me, not just me, it gripped the nation
Here is why…
It came from a place of deep personal emotion
Everyone could resonate with it.
Adele describes exactly how you felt at a particular moment in your life
Most people have had a broken heart
The pain comes flooding back
She stirred up your emotion
Produce content from a place of deep personal emotion…
Think about a topic or an issue that you feel really strongly about…
Get yourself soooooo worked up, into a heightened state of emotion
you know, the kind…
you feel like you could punch the f****n postman in the actual head
then write, let it flow
People will be drawn to read it, almost like magnets pulling their eyeballs
You will learn much more this inside the Yaghi labs, so get involved 🙂
lots of love
ewan, aged 30
off of scotland

We debate this all the time when we get a new website project. From a designer's perspective, infinite scrolling can be very cool. However, it can be prohibitive from a user's perspective and it's never been quiet clear that the hidden content would be included in the index of the page (although I'm 98% positive it is indexed, based on what I've read and experienced with some of our sites).
Yoast provides some good insights on this debate and I like this solution:
One of the things that is always pup for discussion is how to add large blog archives or even homepages to your blog. This can be done in a number of ways. You can list a certain amount of blog posts and add and 'Older' link at the bottom of that list.
It doesn't solve the debt around here (I'm looking at you, Elias), but it is a good compromise, albeit it's not as cool as the traditional infinite scrolling effects.

Yona Shtern is the co-founder and CEO of Beyond the Rack, a Canadian startup that was named the fastest growing E-tailer in the US in 2011 by Internet Retailer Magazine. He has been an entrepreneur for over 10 years and is a frequent speaker and panelist at international marketing and technology conferences. He has also received numerous awards for his advertising, product launch, and marketing strategies.
His company, Beyond the Rack, is a private shopping club for women and men who want designer brand apparel and accessories at prices up to 80% off retail. Consumers can obtain authentic designer merchandise and provide it exclusively to Beyond the Rack members through limited-time events. Each event starts at a specific time and typically lasts only 48 hours. After each event ends the merchandise is no longer available. Members are notified by email in advance of each upcoming event according to their preferences.
Yona admitted he failed at four startups before having success the fifth time: "I had the chance of accepting a well paying job," he says. "I am very grateful to my wife who let me try a fifth time."
That fifth attempt turned out to be very successful. Beyond the Rack is ranked number one in the Techvibes Montreal Startup Index. They work with over 5,000 vendors and consumer brands. And, launched in 2009, Beyond the Rack has already raised a total of $53 million from angel and venture-capital investors including Rho Canada and iNovia Capital.
Shtern says such big bucks and the brainpower behind it—so-called "smart money"—has been essential to creating one of Canada's fastest-growing firms; Beyond the Rack's sales hit $6 million in its first year, $50 million in its second and $100 million in its third. For 2012, sales are expected to double yet again.
Yona found the concept of flash sales in Europe around 2002. It later came to North America.
Yona provided this advice for entrepreneurs: Always raise more money than you need. Three short years ago, Yona Shtern had a lot to learn about raising capital—and that may be putting it kindly. "I didn't know a VC from a banker from a private-equity firm," he confesses.
Fortunately for Beyond the Rack's founders, their earliest backers had bought into private shopping clubs in other markets, allowing the investors to provide "invaluable guidance on what to do and what not to do," says Shtern.
In order to achieving success, Shtern affirms that it requires a lot of help. He recognized where he and COO Robert Gold were lacking expertise—technology and logistics, for example—and invested in top senior talent.
"Robert and I share a philosophy about great people," says Shtern. "You need people with knowledge and expertise that far outstrip your own." Hiring the rest of the team was hit or miss. Some people thrive in a startup environment; others don't. "If they ask about the hours or vacation days in the interview process, they might be the wrong fit," says Shtern, who follows the management mantra "hire slow, fire fast."
Keeping Beyond the Rack's focus is more difficult with the fast growing employee base. Working toward the same objectives has been a key challenge.
To deal with this issue, Shtern is using monthly staff meetings in which he shares the firm's operating metrics and opens the floor to questions. "It's important that people are engaged and understand why we do things," he says. "Thus, you can turn your employees into real stakeholders."
Entrepreneurs are often told they'll never make it. But Yona learned the merits of ignoring the naysayers. He had this last advice for entrepreneurs: "More people will tell you more reasons why you'll fail than people who will be supportive. You need to be resilient. Anyone who's done sales knows it takes nine no's to get one yes. In our business, it takes 49 no's to get one yes. But we still don't give up."

Dead or Alive 6 director Yohei Shimbori has announced that the upcoming fighting game will have a free-to-play version that only includes the «core fighters.» This additional version of the game was previously hinted at after a posting for «Dead or Alive 6 Core Fighters» appeared on the Microsoft Store, before quickly being taken down.
«First of all, about the listing on the Microsoft Store, that was a mistake from the development team,» Shimbori said in an interview with Siliconera. «We do have plans to make a free-to-play version, but we haven't announced when it will be available. We can promise it will be out post-launch of the full game. We can't talk about it yet since we don't have concrete details about what will be included yet. But, it will be similar to what we had with Dead or Alive 5: Core Fighters.»
Dead or Alive 5: Core Fighters is a free version of the fifth DoA mainline game. It only gives you four playable fighters, with the option to unlock a few costumes. It was followed by two other versions of Dead or Alive 5, a complete collection of the main game and all DLC called Ultimate and a HD remaster called Last Round.
Team Ninja hopes that Dead or Alive 6 can be a point of transition for the fighting game series. The developer wants the game to be an esports contender, and also get more people to jump into the franchise. To help with the latter goal, new fighting mechanics have been added to the game to streamline combos and counters for less experienced players. Team Ninja is also trying to tone down on the sexual fan service present throughout the franchise, and deliver a more compelling narrative in the single-player campaign.
Dead or Alive 6 was originally scheduled for release on February 15-alongside half a dozen other games-before being delayed to March 1. The game will be available on Xbox One, PS4, and PC.

ConExpo-Con/Agg 2011 and IFPE 2011 are taking recycling a step further in a new partnership that promotes re-distribution and re-use of discarded show materials. The "Repurpose AMERICA program presented by DoppstadtUS" complements and completes the recycling process.
ConExpo-Con/Agg 2011 and IFPE 2011 will be held March 22-26, 2011 at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas.
Repurpose AMERICA is a program of Greener Vegas, a nonprofit organization that collects unwanted non-recyclable products and materials and repurposes them for donation to local schools, teachers, community associations and other nonprofit groups. It will work with the shows and show producer Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM), along with the Las Vegas Convention Center and show general contractor GES, during the waste-collection process. Discarded show materials that are removed and repurposed include signage, banners, foamboard and magnetic signs; bags and bag stuffing materials; registration materials; and excess publications and literature.
"Supporting the ConExpo-Con/Agg Repurpose AMERICA recycling program through our sponsorship investment is a perfect partnership to demonstrate the broad scope of our equipment," explained Hugh Fagan, DoppstadtUS sales director. "This is a great opportunity to emphasize the importance of material recovery at this show, and we're proud to be associated with it."
Megan Tanel, AEM vice president exhibitions and events, stated, "Continuing on the success of our recycling program from 2008, the Repurpose AMERICA program makes recycling and repurposing much more hassle-free. We have worked with them before and we commend them as well as GES and the Las Vegas Convention Center for facilitating the process."

Who is Timothy Heller?
Timothy Heller was born on 17 August 1992, in Portland, Oregon, USA, and is a singer, best known for being the former vocalist of the band Dresses. She later started a solo career, and released her debut single "Sleep" in 2017. She also earned notoriety for accusing "The Voice" contestant Melanie Martinez of rape.
The Net Worth of Timothy Heller
How rich is Timothy Heller? As of early-2019, sources estimate a net worth that is over $500,000, earned through a successful career in the music industry. She is also active with developing an online career, and has a YouTube channel on which she posts vlog content. As she continues her career, it is expected that her wealth will also continue to increase.
Early Life and Music Career
Very little is known about Timothy's family as well as her childhood, though she apparently developed a passion for music at a young age. During high school, she became a member of her school band to develop her skills, and so participated in school musicals.
She began her foray into the professional music scene in 2013, when she formed the indie-pop duo called Dresses alongside Jared Ryan Maldonado. Together, they released an album and two Eps – one of her most successful hits during this period was the single "Sun Shy" which earned over 13 million plays on the music streaming website Spotify. Numerous other of her singles also reached the million mark, and her popularity led her to become the opening act of the Melanie Martinez Dollhouse Tour. She then released a song with her band called "Catch", which would become featured in the series "Vampire Diaries" which is based on the book series of the same name written by L. J Smith. The show was very successful for The CW and was the most watched series before the arrival of "Arrow".
Recent Projects
In 2016, Heller announced that Dresses would be disbanding and that she would be going her separate way to pursue a solo career. The following year she released her solo debut single called "Sleep", accompanied by a music video released a few months later. The single had a few issues, however, as it was taken down from her YouTube channel after a supposed copyright claim, but was later restored when the claim was proven false. In 2018, she reported that she would be collaborating with Hailey Wait.
Melanie Martinez Issue
Timothy started a social media battle with her then (supposed) best friend Melanie Martinez. Timothy posted a lengthy Twitter post, accusing Melanie of sexually assaulting her, claiming that the star repeatedly asked her for sex which she declined, but one night she began touching her against her will, and overpowered her.
According to her post, Martinez performed oral sex and used a sex toy on her without consent. The accusations came as a surprise to Melanie who denied the allegations and stated that if they did something, they did it with each other's consent. She later released the song entitled "Piggyback" which many fans believe is a reference to Heller trying to piggyback Martinez's recent rise to fame. The lyrics talks of someone lying for fame, and trying to get a piece of her, killing her name for fame. The issue has not been pursued any further by Heller after the denial of the accusations. Many people have also accused her of fabricating the entire story for fame as there are a lot of inconsistencies with her account.
Borderline Personality Disorder
According to an interview, Timothy opened up by stating that she suffers from a mental disorder called Borderline Personality Disorder, or BPD. It is a sickness that leads to mood swings, depression, insecurity and instability, and often causes disruption in work and with relationships. It also causes a person to question his/her identity. She mentioned that she experienced a lot of struggles with BPD while in the band Dresses, and had a lot of dark experiences with the band due to mental illness, but received very little support.
This was also one of the reasons why she wanted to leave the band as she was taking in a lot of responsibility without anyone to support her. She mentioned that leaving the band was good for her, as she started to focus more on her mental wellness.
Personal Life
For her personal life, it is known that Heller is in a relationship with a man named Mikey, who according to her is a record producer who has been supporting her as well as her music career. She admitted to the relationship after numerous fans started to question her regarding her sexuality, especially after speaking against Martinez. People wanted to know if she had an inclination for women, but she confirmed that she was straight.
Similar to numerous singers and musicians, she is active online through accounts on social media websites such as Twitter; she promotes her music through the website, and also posts some of her daily thoughts. She's posted a lot about sexual abuse and continues her stance against it, also continuing to support her story. She has a Facebook account too, but it hasn't been active since 2018.

Offered near the campground.
Natural features you'll find at Signal Mountain Campground.
24 Reviews
Drop some Signal Mountain Campground knowledge on us.
Great campground one of my favorites. Make your you arrive early to get a spot, we arrive around 9 and spots were almost Full, but we were able to snag great spot. Beautiful spot to watch the sun set on the Tetons across Jackson lake, really got some amazing photos. Facilities were also top notch, Bathrooms were clean, and the showers by laundry mat were really nice.
Popular GTNP spot. Great views and books fast in the summer. Touristy, but that's to be expected with the classic Teton views!
Buautiful views
Best campground for RVs that also allows tents. Just FYI, if you're in a tent then it definitely feels a little less private since the spots are much closer together than at other campgrounds like Jenny Lake.
Arrive early to get a first-come first-served site. These sites are spacious and seem to be further apart than some other campgrounds in Grand Teton National Park. There is a short trail down to the public boat launch, gorgeous sunset views over Jackson Lake!
was here in the summer of 2016, the showers seem to be brand new and very clean. Would recommend!
