After my vehicle fiasco yesterday and finding out what the monetary damage ($!!!) is today, I thought it best to take things in stride. After securing a rental vehicle and taking care of business with my employer, it was nice to visit a small park and enjoy the nature a little. A nice calming effect. With todays 365 photo I went…

365-228 Get lost!
No, not from here! That’s my advice on finding photo subjects. When I was heading to a job site the other morning it started raining very hard right at the area where the highway splits. It was raining hard enough where I was paying attention to the traffic around me and I went the wrong direction at the split. “Hey, I never…
365-227 Let’s review
Looking back at the past few weeks worth of photos, I really think I’m all over the place a little too much. I thought I would surely have a consistent style and rhythm down by now and this daily shot thing would be a breeze, right? Wrong….well, in a way. Although I still don’t see a style emerging, I do…
Wheeling feeling

365-226 Feeling textural
I took a photo of my neighbors flowers on my way out today just to have a shot “in the can.” After I ran some errands I uploaded the pics to see if I had to go back out and do some shooting. When I saw this particular image I thought it would make a good texture shot. I browsed…
365-225 Here’s lookin at ya!
I took a stroll through downtown Wheeling, West Virginia today. It’s an easy drive from where I live but I don’t make it over that way very often. I will get try to visit it more in the future though because it has quite a lot of interesting architecture and urban details. I spotted these characters in a second floor window .…
365-224 Nature is nice
I know I have been shooting creatures lately and while it has been fun it has also been a challenge. Trying to get artsy compositions of animals and insects is really difficult. So I’ll probably go back to normal subject matter after today. I much prefer shooting architectural details, old things and abstracts. It helps that stuff doesn’t move when…
365-223 Tweet
A tweeter not a Twitter. In past posts I mentioned that I am generally not a nature photographer, in the wildlife sense. Sure I shoot flowers and the occasional landscape but shooting animals is not ny forte. First of all, I don’t have the gear for it. Shooting birds, for instance, takes some big telephoto lenses and lots of patience to…
365-221 Decisions, decisions
I went back and forth on two totally different photos to use for my 365 today I’ll post both photos here and let you decide if I made the right choice. In the end, the warm color of the rusty metal won out. Though I do like the graphic simplicity of the window shot and I went back and forth between…
365-220 Whew!
It’s been a really long day! Up way too early, put some miles on the road, even more hours on the job, then tried to do some photography along with a little exploring of my environment. Throw in some software issues and working on the laptop again and I’m surprised I even managed to get a photo done. I’m going to…
