May as well stick with a theme for a couple posts! I got to take some photos of an old house I discovered in a nearby town and this is one of the detail shots. I saw the house a few months ago and finally decided to take the drive and get a few shots of it.

Uhm….I don’t know

Colors
I hope all of my USA readers enjoyed a nice Independence Day holiday. It was a purposely relaxing day for me, something I need to do once in a while. Since color is in abundance on a summer holiday, todays photo is about color and in somewhat of a 4th of July vein. A nearby town has an annual Fourth…
Another from the rails
Here’s another shot from my visit to the train tracks. It’s just another rusty detail shot. This is the sliding mechanism on the boxcar doors. I shot a closer detail with the Leica 25mm but his one was shot with the Lumix G 14mm lens, which does quite well in its own right considering how little I paid for it and…
Down on the tracks
In my continuing gear test, I thought I would revisit the train tracks not too far from where I live. I know that there is a ton of detail on the old box cars that sit idle on the tracks. Things don’t change much there and I shot the same cars last year for a couple of posts, but I can always…
Yes, no, yes, no, maybe
That’s the way I feel about this shot. While on the Pitt campus the other day, my wife and I were walking past Heinz Chapel (which is a spectacular building in its own right) and there was a sign that said a wedding was taking place and not to enter. Through the open door you could see the bride and my…
A short journey
Saturday was a nice summer day and my wife and I decided to take a walk in the early evening since we had nothing better to do – well, nothing we wanted to do, like painting. But considering how lousy our neighborhood is and the questionable characters that inhabit it, I suggested we head into Pittsburgh and walk around the city.…
Just Posting Vol. 2
A continuation of my posting of what I think is uninspiring photography that I have been doing lately. I thought this shot would look good in black and white but it just didn’t work out. Too busy or contrasty or something. So I settled on the color but I’m still not happy – maybe too much green or something.
Missing an element?
I’ve passed this old farmhouse a few times and even managed to grab a photo of it in the past. I liked the old warmth of it and would love to get closer to take detail shots. I don’t think it’s inhabited and I don’t want to simply trespass, so I’m holding out hope that some time when I drive…
Feel like cropping
For some reason I usually don’t crop a photo different from its native format. On rare occasions, I may do a square crop but I seldom do a “freeform” crop, even though it may be the best thing for the composition of the photo. But after I processed this image and saw all of the wasted space above the bales I…
