Been having a tough time here at Whatipic headquarters lately. It appears my computer is down for the count. I did just about everything I can think of but it still acting a little crazy. It did a phantom restart the other night, which seemed quite odd and I knew something was up. The next day it started playing random…

The problem
The problem with having a photo blog is that you have to continually add photos to it. And they have to be interesting enough to keep the reader’s attention and, hopefully, make them want to keep coming back. But if you start to slack off either in frequency or content, or both, the poor readers will have no choice but to move…
How about something different (from me at least)?
Different from the things I usually post on here but not too different from what a lot of other people shoot. A doe, a deer, a female deer, with a bit of a drop of golden sun thrown in. Sure I have shot deer before (photographically speaking, I’m not a hunter), but most of the photos have been somewhat lame.…
Fall is just about fallen
And with that it’s time to look forward to winter. Ooh, can’t wait. I’m a fan of snow but most of winter in this part of the country is just a dull, rainy/freezing rain, cold, muddy mess. My work takes me outdoors a lot and when you are working outdoors almost every day you realize how few truly “nice” days there…
Not staying within the lines
It looks like the fall color is coming to an end soon, judging by what I saw today while driving around. That’s too bad, because I found a new life with it after getting bored taking “normal” shots, I started to experiment. I found the color a nice backdrop, and sometimes even the “subject”, for my multi-exposure photos. Considering the…
The party’s over, turn out the lights
A little break from my experiments. While I was in the park the other day trying to fulfill my artistic vision 😉 I took a few shots of this lonely swing set. I don’t know why, it was something to shoot but really didn’t offer much as far as details or textures. Regardless, I took a few shots, trying to play…
Making an impression
In order to get my artistic mojo back I’ve been trying to get outside of my own box. One thing that I have been playing around with lately is multiple exposures. As I mentioned in a previous post, my camera has the ability to take up to 9 exposures on one file and I have been trying to find some suitable…
Drive-by autumn
So, getting back to the autumn picture thing. I had all intentions of not trying to capture the fall season on camera anymore but I kept seeing colorful trees everywhere today. With the gray cloudy skies the colors seemed to pop more than usual. But since I was working today I couldn’t spend time taking photos so these are just…
Since I’m here I may as well experiment
Continuing from my visit to the park yesterday to photograph the autumn season. My disappointment with the color array left me to do more experimentation than I normally would. One thing I wanted to practice was in camera multiple exposures to create an impressionist look. I’ve seen this effect done with film cameras that have the ability to take endless…
I was in the park and everything was yellow
I visited the county park today to attempt some autumn photos. It was a beautiful day with the sunshine and blue skies and the park was looking very nice. The crowds weren’t too bad and a lot of people were doing the same thing I was – taking pictures. Only they seemed to be taking pictures of each other and not the…
