Different from the things I usually post on here but not too different from what a lot of other people shoot. A doe, a deer, a female deer, with a bit of a drop of golden sun thrown in. Sure I have shot deer before (photographically speaking, I’m not a hunter), but most of the photos have been somewhat lame.…

I did manage to get one B&W image yesterday
As a follow-up to my last post, I did manage to find one image from the cemetery shoot that worked best in black and white. It’s an obvious cemetery scene but I like the setting of the old and weathered tombstones. With nothing but stone and green grass I knew immediately the it was an ideal candidate for black and white. This is…
I need to get to the point
A roadside find I came across today. These skulls and antlers were on the side of a barn in West Virginia, which was literally right next to the road . Besides the collection I really liked the matching patina of the bones and barn siding. They all kind of blended together, which made it a little difficult to photograph. So I…
Fall is just about fallen
And with that it’s time to look forward to winter. Ooh, can’t wait. I’m a fan of snow but most of winter in this part of the country is just a dull, rainy/freezing rain, cold, muddy mess. My work takes me outdoors a lot and when you are working outdoors almost every day you realize how few truly “nice” days there…
There for a reason
I saw this farm fence today and I thought the location of it warranted a photo. The fence itself is nothing unusual, just the normal post and wire ensemble, but as you can tell, the background sure looked crazy. The fence is on the side of a country road and immediately behind it is a ravine, where the large, scraggly tree…
Hmm, I got nothin’
So how about we spice it up with a taste of spice. I don’t have much to add to this photo except that I kind of like it. I like the warm colors and I like the circles. Circles are cool – when you can find them. Hey, what the hey, I may as well throw in a few…
Ghosts of the machine…….NOW with bokeh!
How about a few shots of what was a piece of construction machinery that burned up? The machine was hauled away but some debris remained. Melted glass (in a nice aqua color, I might add), burnt rubber, and steel. And while we are at it, who can’t resist bokeh? Everybody loves it! So when you add bokeh to trash it…
I feel like this leaf
I guess I picked a good week to take vacation. With this being the fifth rainy day in the row, I’m getting a little soggy. I canceled some plans to get work done on my house because it’s a bit too wet, so that left me with not much to do. With the exception of the hard core hurricane induced…
Not staying within the lines
It looks like the fall color is coming to an end soon, judging by what I saw today while driving around. That’s too bad, because I found a new life with it after getting bored taking “normal” shots, I started to experiment. I found the color a nice backdrop, and sometimes even the “subject”, for my multi-exposure photos. Considering the…
Trees seem to work
In my continuing multi-exposure experiments I have come to the conclusion that trees seem to work best for the technique. I was out in the park today and tried to incorporate other elements into the photos but I found that things with harder, straighter edges don’t seem to work as well. Also I need to be somewhat of a distance…
