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…

A bucket of…
…bolts. I seriously think I am running out of ideas and things to photograph. Which must mean I am on the verge of something great, since in the past when I felt that way I ended up taking some good photos afterwards. I really hope so. In the mean time you can enjoy this fine array of cold hard steel…
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…
T is for tree
Just a couple of tree photos I took over the last few days. I’m not overly happy with them, mostly because I didn’t take the time to study the scenes. I was thinking too “normal” when I was shooting. It was only afterwards, when viewing the images on the computer, that I spotted way better compositions that I totally missed. Sigh.…
A grave decision
I have been a little heavy on the black and white lately so I decided some color pics would be nice. And what’s more colorful than flowers? Astute readers may note that there are graves in the photos and are probably thinking, “geesh, is that guy in the cemetery again?” Well, not really. I was in Columbus for a vintage guitar…
Thanks for the help…and more B&W
I want to thank everyone who helped me in deciding on images in my last post. I’m going with #’s 2, 4, 7, and 8. And I’m going to throw in #6 as a wild card. So after all of the numbers being thrown around and talk of black and white, I can’t think of a better picture to post…
Impressions in the cemetery
I don’t know what draws me to the cemetery but I like to visit it more often than I should – to look for photos, of course. I do like the details and textures that are abundant, especially in the older graves and tombs. There is also wildlife and plants and trees to add to the mix. When I have…
Buildings and angles in black and white
While walking around in Wheeling, West Virginia the other day, I snapped a number of photos of the local architecture. Most of my shots were from ground level while looking up. Not exactly the best way to do architectural studies. Be that as it may, I wasn’t equipped with a telephoto to zoom in on the details from afar or…
A round of rust
How about a series of rusty pipe photos? I know, I know….you can calm down now. Be patient and you’ll be able to view this wonderful series as soon as you are done reading. I took these photos last month when I was just testing out the Lumix GX1 camera and never did anything with them. I don’t know why – I mean, seriously, the…
Finally, a sign……..(and another sign)
Today I drove through a town that I haven’t been to before. A small, nice looking town that looked like it had a lot of photo possibilities within it but, unfortunately, I didn’t have the time today to explore. It’s a few hours away from where I live so I may return on my own time some day. After spotting…
