Knowing that I would be busy on the job all day, I ran out at lunch to the park to try to find a quick photo for the day. I was attracted to these purple flowers with white stems ( I can’t find what kind they are) that were obviously knocked down by the previous rains in the area. I…

365-270 No rush
Although there are signs that the seasons are changing, it will still be about another month before it really looks like autumn around here. I hope I can do the season justice in the coming weeks. Last year, I had some camera gear in for service right at the peak time and it was tough to watch the colors go…
365-269 Changes
I originally thought I was going to do an autumn photo today. I shot some leaves at lunch time and was planning to do a texture treatment during post processing. I had it all figured out and was content. But while I was at work we had a late afternoon rain shower. It came down fairly heavy. After the rain I…
365-268 Yeah, so it’s my birthday
It’s also my wife’s birthday, so that makes for a nice day together! I had another day off of work, which was sort of unexpected. Good thing too, because my lawn was way overdue for a mowing. Ooh, fun stuff. Happy birthday! We did get to have dinner at our favorite Mexican restaurant though and on the way spotted this industrial building…
365-267 A day off
Today was my first actual day off in a couple of weeks. So after waking up about noon, I realized I would be visiting someplace local again for my 365 photo. I travel a lot during work so I didn’t want to venture too far from home today. As the afternoon wore on I didn’t have a photo yet so I…
365-266 Oglebay, part II
Oglebay revisited. Today I wasn’t sure how my schedule was going to play out. By lunchtime I thought I was either going to remain at work until dark or it was going to start raining very hard for the rest of the day and I would be done for the day. So I thought I would swing by the park I…
365-265 The final 100!
Whew, only 100 more days to finish my 365! I’m kind of looking forward to it because having to come up with a somewhat interesting photo every day is a bit nerve-racking at times, especially when I am busy with other things. Yet, at the same time, having to do it has pushed me creatively further than I ever would…
365-264 Keep on truckin’
I know I just did photos of an old truck the other day, but I stumbled upon another today and couldn’t resist. I was slightly ahead of schedule this morning and thought I would swing through a small town right off of the interstate. Even though I haven’t been through the town of West Alexander, Pennsylvania in probably close to 20 years, I…
365-263 Architecture – more or less
I love taking photos of architecture. Not so much shooting a whole building but finding details and abstracts within the design that may go un-noticed to passersby. Modern designs work great for black and white abstracts when working with their sleek minimalist lines. Old buildings offer lots of detail, the more weathered the better, especially for color work. I like…
365-262 Wrong place
It seems that every time I see a rainbow and want to take a photo of it I am in the most un-photogenic places. Todays photo was taken in a mini-mart parking lot as I stopped for a coffee this morning. I may have been able to drive to a better location but it was a fleeting moment so I thought…
