A continuation of my posting of what I think is uninspiring photography that I have been doing lately. I thought this shot would look good in black and white but it just didn’t work out. Too busy or contrasty or something. So I settled on the color but I’m still not happy – maybe too much green or something.

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…
Missing an element?
I’ve passed this old farmhouse a few times and even managed to grab a photo of it in the past. I liked the old warmth of it and would love to get closer to take detail shots. I don’t think it’s inhabited and I don’t want to simply trespass, so I’m holding out hope that some time when I drive…
A bucket of…
…bolts. I seriously think I am running out of ideas and things to photograph. Which must mean I am on the verge of something great, since in the past when I felt that way I ended up taking some good photos afterwards. I really hope so. In the mean time you can enjoy this fine array of cold hard steel…
Feel like cropping
For some reason I usually don’t crop a photo different from its native format. On rare occasions, I may do a square crop but I seldom do a “freeform” crop, even though it may be the best thing for the composition of the photo. But after I processed this image and saw all of the wasted space above the bales I…
T is for tree
Just a couple of tree photos I took over the last few days. I’m not overly happy with them, mostly because I didn’t take the time to study the scenes. I was thinking too “normal” when I was shooting. It was only afterwards, when viewing the images on the computer, that I spotted way better compositions that I totally missed. Sigh.…
A grave decision
I have been a little heavy on the black and white lately so I decided some color pics would be nice. And what’s more colorful than flowers? Astute readers may note that there are graves in the photos and are probably thinking, “geesh, is that guy in the cemetery again?” Well, not really. I was in Columbus for a vintage guitar…
Thanks for the help…and more B&W
I want to thank everyone who helped me in deciding on images in my last post. I’m going with #’s 2, 4, 7, and 8. And I’m going to throw in #6 as a wild card. So after all of the numbers being thrown around and talk of black and white, I can’t think of a better picture to post…
I need some help on choosing photos for a competition
I’m going to enter some photos in a competition for black and white images. There is no specific category that I have to submit to (the judges will decide) with the only criteria being technical, that the images are a certain size and B&W in grayscale mode. The photos generally fall into the fine art realm with an emphasis on,…
Impressions in the cemetery
I don’t know what draws me to the cemetery but I like to visit it more often than I should – to look for photos, of course. I do like the details and textures that are abundant, especially in the older graves and tombs. There is also wildlife and plants and trees to add to the mix. When I have…
