In a fit of nothing better to do, I went through some of my old photo files with a hopefully fresh look at some of my past work. I like to do that on occasion just to see if I missed something the first time around, or perhaps see if I can process a photo a different direction from what…

Be afraid
OK, not really. But since it is getting near the Halloween season, who can’t resist some creepy graveyard photos? Well, they may not be too creepy but they fit the mood. I actually took these photos a year ago on this day along with about a gazillion other subjects. I certainly was on a roll that day, unlike this year…
Hoop Dreams II (only a year late)
Worked in the office today and I didn’t get to take any new photos. So, out of curiosity, I looked in my files to see what I shot on this day last year. I found this shot and I never really did anything with it. I chose a different shot from that day for my 365 project (365-250) and I…
Scoolhouse(s) rock
I’m not even sure if these buildings were ever schoolhouses, but I came up with a catchy post title and I’m sticking with it! 🙂 These are just a couple of old rural buildings I came across during my travels and I thought they looked interesting. I basically shot them from the road so I didn’t get to put much effort…
Back to the blues
I don’t have a whole lot to say about this photo. It’s just one of those things you spot while you’re out and about and think that it may be worth getting a shot of. One of those things that just catches your eye, for some reason. The reason here, of course, is the abundance of  blue. Plus the fact…
I forgot about this one
I was talking about taking the tulip photos in the last post and I forgot that I also shot some magnolia blossoms. I think they are my favorite spring blossom, mainly because they are so huge and I like the way that the petals fall in different directions. From a photographic standpoint you can get a nice variety of blossoms…
A spring tree
I was sitting at a stop light and noticed this large pink tree in someones yard. I had my camera in the truck and snapped a photo before moving on. I really like the spring blossoms and all of the colors of the spring season. I think it would be cool if some trees were as colorful all of the…
Small signs of spring (No blues for the blues)
Considering this is the middle of March in Pennsylvania, the weather has been incredibly warm the past week. The forecast for the next week calls for more of the same, so one can’t help but think spring. Even though it technically becomes spring this week, I just hope nothing happens, like a freak snowstorm in April, to destroy the mood. One…
Got wood?
A couple of earthy, woody shots for today. I don’t think I’ll win any composition awards with these but I liked the general warmth of the photos. I processed the photos with a warming filter, which basically steers the color balance towards yellow. It’s a bit of an extreme shift, and one that wouldn’t work well in a lot of situations, but I think it…
Spring color…..(sort of)
Considering the mild winter we had and the warm temperatures forecasted for the coming week, one can’t help but think of spring. But no matter how warm and sunny, we won’t see much spring color around here for at least another month or two. It starts with the grass getting greener, then the flowers and blossoms start blooming and finally…
