Cemetery Part 2

Just a few more shots from the cemetery as I promised on May 4th.

365-133 When it rains, it rains

I really can’t think of a wetter spring in recent years. Almost every day, it seems, it’s raining or storming. The days in between are pretty decent though, so I can’t complain much. Besides running some errands, I basically stuck around the house today. I took the photo of the robin on my neighbors fence just to get my 365…

365-132 Move along, nothing to see here.

Surprise, the rain is back. Looks like another seven-day stretch. Had a nice hailstorm this afternoon and I took a shot of my windshield:-(. I know, I know – it’s lame, but it’s all I have right now. I also drove through the park and although there wasn’t much to shoot I took a few shots into the woods. I liked the…

365-131 Aspirations of the uninspired

My images have been a bit uninspiring lately. I don’t know what it is. Maybe the change in weather, maybe I’ve exhausted all of the possibilities in my immediate surroundings.  Probably more than anything, a change in environment would help me artistically and even more, mentally. Since being layed off, I’ve been around home more than I have ever been…

365-130 Study in color

As opposed to yesterdays title, todays photo is about color. More pink than any other color but colorful nonetheless. These photos were taken in front of a Michaels arts and crafts store. I needed to buy something crafty today and I saw these colorful items on the sidewalk display and grabbed a few shots.  I don’t do much crafty things…

365-129 Study in black and white

Well, the cows are black and white! Took a quick drive through the rural parts of town. The late afternoon sunlight was beautiful and enhanced just about everything. I got a few pictures of the cows before the sun hid behind the hills. Both shots are simple portraits so I don’t have much to add technically. Pentax K20D, DA55-300. Rural…

325-126 All about texture

I’m kind of running out of time tonight so I’ll keep the text short. I did my usual ride around town again and although not looking for anything in particular, I found textures more than anything. My 365 shot is just an odd sight on the side of an old building downtown. What the purpose is I have no idea but…

365-124 Cemetery Part 1

One of those days again where I didn’t get out until late. The town is looking uninspiring lately and the lighting was drab anyhow so I cruised through the cemetery again to find some textures and details. I’ll add some more tomorrow when I have more time. Adios. Waves        

365-122 Shopping for photos

My budget may be busted right now but I still like to get out and shop once in a while. Shopping for me usually consists of looking but not really buying. I like to research items I may be interested in the future or that I am simply curious about. For instance, I looked in the Apple store to see what my WordPress…

365-119 Not a better photographer

I’m feeling better today but that doesn’t mean the photographer is any better ;-).  This was shot in my usual “sitting at a redlight and looking out of my window” style. I should be able to plan a day soon when I can just go out and focus on the photography. Perhaps a day trip to Pittsburgh for some city shots.…
