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.

More dry things

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.

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…

Just testing the Leica Summilux 25mm f1.4

I got my hands on a Leica Summilux 25mm 1:1.4 lens for my GX1 and I’m giving it a go for a few days. It sure has exceptional image quality, super sharp – even wide open, although I don’t think I’m going to do it any real justice by just shooting around town. I can think of a few scenarios where this…

Just posting Vol. 1

I honestly haven’t been spending much time shooting lately and I feel a little bad about it. I’ve been focusing on my house and assorted other life things so I haven’t really had the time to just go out and take photos. Oh I take my camera with me as much as possible because, you know, “just in case” but as…
