This shot is actually a pretty extreme crop from the original. I couldn’t get tight enough at the angle that I wanted so without the benefit of a super telephoto I had to “digitally” zoom. That being said, I think I’ll try another attempt at the shot at a later date to try some better compositions as I think the abstract qualities warrants that.

Plant life
It’s the weekend and viewership is usually down, so I’ll keep the chit-chat to a minimum. This shot is simply of two large leaves, taken near sunset at a nearby park. I kind of like the color contrasts between them and the warm lighting. My one regret though was that I didn’t drag out the tripod and shoot it at a lower…
It’s a mind thing
First, I’ll start off with a totally original photo, that no one else has attempted before – the “seagull on a post” pic! 🙂 As you can tell by my sarcasm with the accompanying photo, I haven’t been thrilled with my output as of late. Sure I have been through some growing pains experimenting with new gear, trying to find a balance…
Feeling nautical
Since I have a few days of from work, my wife and I took a quick drive “up” north to Lake Erie. We basically just went for the night to get out of town. Sitting on the dock and watching the sunset as sailboats went by was a little more relaxing than listening to trucks and three-color Cavaliers driving past…
Keeping it yellow
May as well stay with a theme. No textures this time though. Taken in a bank parking lot.
Some weekend art experiments
I’m just kind of sticking around the house this weekend, even though there are some cool events happening nearby that would be fun to see, like the Pittsburgh Blues Festival and the Vintage Grand Prix. Perhaps next year when my house is situated a little better. For now I have other things to focus on. That doesn’t mean I am not…
Something normal in Pittsburgh
On Saturday evening my wife and I found ourselves close enough to Pittsburgh for me to try to get a shot of the city at dusk. It was a beautiful evening and I thought, after looking at the sky, that I would get some interesting clouds in the background and that it may be worth a shot. Well by the time…
More window watching
Since my last post went over like a lead balloon, I guess I have no choice but to continue posting. Eventually I’ll get it right. Of course some interesting photography would help but, alas, I have none. I am not worried, I shall prevail and soon I will be gracing these pages with works of the highest caliber. Until then, please enjoy…
Forms
I wasn’t planning on posting anything today, mainly because I really haven’t been shooting anything of substance lately. But with a wild weekend planned of working on my house I thought I should put something up because it may be a while before I get to explore any photographic avenues. These are some old pipes near a work site that…
A sign
Well, an old one, for a classic beverage. Seen on the side of a very old and crooked barn. Nothing fancy, I just liked the colors and weathered look of it all.
