365-283 Laptop visions

I’m back in the Charleston, WV area again for a few days. That means I’m working off of my laptop which isn’t my favorite place to process photos. But I’ll give it a good try. I took a wide variety of photos today, none of which truly excite me. That’s fine though because I did scout out a few potential shots for…

365-282 Too much time

It seems to me on days that my time for photography is limited I end up doing some of my more creative work. The past few days I have had personal time to do some photography but I just couldn’t seem to get the creative juices flowing. I don’t know, maybe my brain just needs a little down time or something.…

365-281 Traffic

If there is a word that describes today, it would have to be traffic. There seemed to be heavy traffic everywhere today. Just getting around, anywhere, was a chore. My wife and I left the house late in the afternoon and I thought we would go into Oakland area of Pittsburgh to try to some architecture photos. Unfortunately on our way…

365-280 October

I may as well stick to the seasonal theme today. October, fall, Halloween, or harvest –  either way the overwhelming color is orange. Pumpkins, leaves, and sunsets all add to the “orangeness” of the season. I shot this dew covered spiderweb this morning and I originally thought to do a black and white image but, after a little experimentation, decided to…

365-279 Nothing really

I took a few sunrise photos this morning. I thought they looked good on the camera but after I viewed them on my monitor they just didn’t work for me. That happens. But I was intrigued by these dew covered twigs I captured. Just a grab shot really. They were backlit by the early sunrise. I’m glad I shot them as…

365-277 Reflecting time

I’ll keep the chatter to a minimum today because I just want to take a break. I really need to do some adjustments on my guitars and change some strings. Plus just working on some songs and relaxing. I also want to visit a few sites of the fellow bloggers who stopped by here. So I’ll leave you with a…

365-275 One stop potpourri

Three days and counting – it’s still raining! Plus it’s been getting colder. It’s really feeling like autumn around here but it will still be a few weeks before it really looks like it. Just like spring flowers, I’m trying to capture fall color whenever I get a chance. At least that is my intention. I can get easily distracted and…

365-274 Up and down

Today ended on a bit of a sour note. I was off from work so I slept in and got up pretty late. It was all dark and rainy outside so I played guitar for a couple of hours. I’ve been working on learning all of David Gilmour’s Pink Floyd solos. I learned a few of them in the past…

365-270 No rush

Although there are signs that the seasons are changing, it will still be about another month before it really looks like autumn around here. I hope I can do the season justice in the coming weeks. Last year, I had some camera gear in for service right at the peak time and it was tough to watch the colors go…

365-268 Yeah, so it’s my birthday

It’s also my wife’s birthday, so that makes for a nice day together! I had another day off of work, which was sort of unexpected. Good thing too, because my lawn was way overdue for a mowing. Ooh, fun stuff. Happy birthday!  We did get to have dinner at our favorite Mexican restaurant though and on the way spotted this industrial building…
