Nor can I really think of much to say today. One of those kind of days, I guess. Todays shot was taken at a loading dock in the rear of a grocery store. I was driving by and the bright color of the pallets against the black caught my eye. A simple, straightforward composition. I didn’t want to push my access…

365-127 Doo, doo, doo, Looking out my back door
Well I didn’t see any giants doing cartwheels or statues wearing high heels but I did turn to see the outdoor color reflecting in the glass of my kitchen door. I wanted the color to be subtle and of course no reflected detail so I focused on the string and let everything else blur. Blind
325-126 All about texture
I’m kind of running out of time tonight so I’ll keep the text short. I did my usual ride around town again and although not looking for anything in particular, I found textures more than anything. My 365 shot is just an odd sight on the side of an old building downtown. What the purpose is I have no idea but…
365-125 Times toll
I finally got around to shooting that machinery I mentioned a couple of days ago. I tried twice before to shoot an abstract but the light level was just too low to work with. Today was certainly brighter and nicer than it has been of late. The machinery is in a shady area so I still was on the edge of being able to…
365-124 Cemetery Part 1
One of those days again where I didn’t get out until late. The town is looking uninspiring lately and the lighting was drab anyhow so I cruised through the cemetery again to find some textures and details. I’ll add some more tomorrow when I have more time. Adios. Waves
365-123 Take green, add water
Surprise! It’s pouring down rain again today! Absolutely lovely! The bright side is, I guess, that it’s not snow. So I thought I may as well take advantage of the rain and use it creatively. After running some errands, my wife and I stopped for a drive-through dinner and parked my truck under a tree at the corner of the parking lot.…
365-122 Shopping for photos
My budget may be busted right now but I still like to get out and shop once in a while. Shopping for me usually consists of looking but not really buying. I like to research items I may be interested in the future or that I am simply curious about. For instance, I looked in the Apple store to see what my WordPress…
365-121 Once more with feeling
OK, I know I said I wouldn’t do any more blossom photos and I certainly didn’t plan on any. I went to try the abstract I mentioned yesterday and I still couldn’t get a good shot. The weather has been so lousy lately – almost constant rain and clouds. I just can’t get a fast enough shutter speed to shoot my…
365-120 Met the quota
I can’t really say that I couldn’t find much to shoot today because I did. I shot this fence picture earlier in the day just to get something “in the can”. Good thing I did because it was pretty bleak afterwards. I wanted to find some textural or abstract shots but couldn’t find anything until the light got too low. I…
365-119 Not a better photographer
I’m feeling better today but that doesn’t mean the photographer is any better ;-). This was shot in my usual “sitting at a redlight and looking out of my window” style. I should be able to plan a day soon when I can just go out and focus on the photography. Perhaps a day trip to Pittsburgh for some city shots.…
