Wow, it’s getting difficult to find photo subjects as the days get shorter. The project I am on for work keeps me busy until near dark, which doesn’t help. I try to find stuff on the way back to my hotel while there is still light but it’s a well worn path. Occasionally I’ll find something new or see something old in…

365-303 It’s still a sill
Heading out to take care of some business, I thought about going by the usual cemetery to find a photo. Instead I stopped by an old railroad station in town that is now being used for, I assume, storage by a cement company. I took some photos there earlier in the year (365-24) and I didn’t want to repeat those,…
365-302 Just a 365
I’ve been in a little bit of a slump lately, not just artistically but in general also. Life has just been catching up with me and I let it. I just have to make some changes soon in order to carry on in a more positive way. It’s not any health or family issues, everything is fine in that regard,…
365-301 Just junk
At least on the days where I don’t put much effort into getting a photo, I don’t mind having nothing to work with. I just took a few grab shots of junk while out running errands and I didn’t even do that well. Half of the shots were blurry due to camera movement. It was fairly dark and cloudy out…
365-300 The colors of the season
Another rainy day filled with travel. Although I was on the highway, I managed to grab todays 365 photo during a stop for gas somewhere in West Virginia. I saw the scene right before I exited and was glad to find an easy vantage point. I picked this photo because it’s rare that I do a straight landscape photo. I don’t…
365-299 Darkness on the edge of day
I like it when I get a photo nice and early in the day. It’s a calm relaxing feeling knowing that I don’t have to look at everything in a photographic way or go exploring after work. I arrived at work this morning and like recent mornings it was still dark out. Though unlike recent mornings the sky had some nice bold…
365-298 Just seeing
The photos today are just things I saw. I guess most photography is just that – things you see. Of course sometimes it may be things that the camera saw. A telephoto can compress distance that would be tough for you to see, or not think of seeing, without it. The same can be said for extreme wide-angle or macro lenses.…
365-297 Down by the river
I’m back in Charleston and I got off work a little early because of the rain. So with some extra time I thought I would be able to easily find a photo. At least that’s what I thought. I just didn’t see anything. After driving around a little and checking in to my hotel, I took a drive towards downtown.…
365-296 Time for time
Continuing my time of just relaxing at home. I’m heading back out of town for work tomorrow so I didn’t want to drive around any today. I saw the sunlight from a window lighting a clock in my dining room and tried a few shots with my Super-Takumar 50mm lens. Upon viewing the results I thought of a SkeletalMess Post Card texture that I saw…
365-295 Three of one
It was almost dark and I didn’t have a photo for the day. My wife and I were out for a little shopping and dinner and my mind was more on that then taking a photo. I have to be careful to not let the 365 thing drive me crazy and need to realize I must have a life also! I did try…
