I just kind of realized that I have been posting almost regularly on Sunday evenings. If there one thing I cannot say about my work, it’s consistency. So having something that is somewhat dependable is nice, I imagine, at least from an artistic standpoint. It’s too bad I don’t have much to say this evening. 🙂 So I’ll leave you…

As promised
Here are the fountain shots that I took last weekend and mentioned in my last post. These are the photos that made me decide to go back to my “abnormal” thinking.
Changing
I want to change the way I shoot. I spent almost a whole day in the city of Pittsburgh on Friday and this is my favorite shot of the day. I like the strong shadows as the skateboarder tried numerous attempts. Not much, I know but at least it has some kind of vision. And I know the reason why.…
Just my imagination running away with me
I’ve been finding myself wandering too much lately when it comes to photography. I am caught up in this attempt to create a fantastic photo, head out to create that photo, and end up finding myself disappointed at the end of the day. I am thinking too much. Way too much. I think I have a great location planned where I’ll…
If it makes you happy
As I was heading out the door on my way to work this morning, I had to stop abruptly when I spotted this baby bunny on the walk in front of me with a watchful parent nearby. I could have easily walked on, they would have hopped away, and I would have continued on to work thinking nothing of it, but I…
Interim
When I originally started this blog I was going to feature two things that I like to do – photography and play guitar, hence the name “What I Pic” which derived from “pic” as in picture and “pic” as in guitar pick. However, the guitar portion quickly took a back seat to the photography when I was posting daily my…
Cemeteries don’t have to look morbid
I take a lot of photos in cemeteries. Besides the fact that the local cemetery is the nicest place in town, landscape wise, certainly nicer than the park, I like visiting it for all of the textures and history. When I travel I actually seek out old cemeteries, the older the better. And although I am a fan of the…
Walking, shooting….and thinking
These photos were taken while walking around Charleston, South Carolina on one rainy day. There’s something about being in a different city that puts me in tourist mode instead of photographer mode. My creativity just sinks and I end up leisurely shooting the sites. That’s not a bad thing, I guess, since the idea of the trip was just to get…
Pops of red
A couple of automotive “portraits” for today. No fancy photography technique here – just some scenes I saw while walking around. If the architecture looks different from my usual work, it’s because these were shot in Charleston, South Carolina. I was there for only a couple of days this week and most of that was raining, heavily at times, so I couldn’t…
Two shots in one
While I was browsing through some older files I came across some shots that I did last year of some berries. Out of about 20 different shots, I chose one I liked at the time and that was the end of it. I didn’t think about the other photos since. But while I was looking at the photos I saw…
