A simple black and white abstract today. I had to go into downtown Pittsburgh for an appointment (which I’ll elaborate on at a later time) and I shot this from the parking garage. It’s kind of a habit of mine when I park in city garages to look over the edge for a different perspective on the city below. This particular…

365-336 My world and my ashtray
In case you haven’t noticed I’ve been stuck on a work project that has been keeping me in basically one spot from dark to dark the past few days. I apologize for the abundance of job site photos but I have to work with what I got. And that isn’t much. Mud doesn’t make for nice photos. 😉 As for…
365-329 How much is that zebra?
When I see a zebra in the window of an urban store, I’m thinking “hmm, there’s a picture.” Unfortunately when a zebra is in the window, it probably isn’t alive. It wasn’t. The store ended up being a soon to be opened taxidermy shop. Lots of cool animals “hanging around” but the reflections and glare on the windows made it…
365-319 When it rains….
…I head back home. This crazy wet weather is really delaying the project I am on for work and making my schedule go haywire. I got to work yesterday but it’s raining again for the next two days so I headed back home again. That’s a lot of highway time. Before I headed out of West Virginia, I tried to…
365-315 Darkness on the edge of town
It’s been a long day and seemed like a long week, so I’ll keep it short tonight. I spotted this truck in a back alley a few weeks ago and never had the opportunity to shoot it until today. I only had the chance to process a couple black and white, low key images for now. Pentax K20D, DA17-70 Hot…
365-309 Whew!
I know what you are thinking……..”Dave, what’s up with the lame photo?” Well it’s been a long day. I had to work today and finish up (sort of) some testing and then I hit the road for the long trip home. Along the way, my truck started riding real rough. It took me a while to figure it out but I thought something…
365-303 It’s still a sill
Heading out to take care of some business, I thought about going by the usual cemetery to find a photo. Instead I stopped by an old railroad station in town that is now being used for, I assume, storage by a cement company. I took some photos there earlier in the year (365-24) and I didn’t want to repeat those,…
365-302 Just a 365
I’ve been in a little bit of a slump lately, not just artistically but in general also. Life has just been catching up with me and I let it. I just have to make some changes soon in order to carry on in a more positive way. It’s not any health or family issues, everything is fine in that regard,…
365-295 Three of one
It was almost dark and I didn’t have a photo for the day. My wife and I were out for a little shopping and dinner and my mind was more on that then taking a photo. I have to be careful to not let the 365 thing drive me crazy and need to realize I must have a life also! I did try…
365-294 Make a note
One of those days where I didn’t feel like heading out for a photo. I got to enjoy playing my guitar today and just relaxing. So instead of looking for a subject I thought I would make one. It’s a rare event that I try still life photos, mostly because I lack any proper “studio” gear. Regardless I decided to…
