I took a few sunrise photos this morning. I thought they looked good on the camera but after I viewed them on my monitor they just didn’t work for me. That happens. But I was intrigued by these dew covered twigs I captured. Just a grab shot really. They were backlit by the early sunrise. I’m glad I shot them as…

365-278 Blue skies and sunshine
A nice clear day is a welcome change around here since it has been practically raining or cloudy for the past week or so. Unfortunately a nice clear day isn’t good for my photography since I often have to shoot during midday, due to my work schedule. On dark cloudy days the lighting is even and soft. On clear sunny days the…
365-277 Reflecting time
I’ll keep the chatter to a minimum today because I just want to take a break. I really need to do some adjustments on my guitars and change some strings. Plus just working on some songs and relaxing. I also want to visit a few sites of the fellow bloggers who stopped by here. So I’ll leave you with a…
365-276 Since you’re there (a lesson)
One bad habit of mine that I’ve talked about in past posts is not exploring a location or subject to its full potential. There have been oftentimes, when viewing photos from a shoot, that, upon closer inspection, I think “aw, that would have been a nice detail to capture” or “why didn’t I try moving in/out/left/right?”. Because I usually like to work…
365-275 One stop potpourri
Three days and counting – it’s still raining! Plus it’s been getting colder. It’s really feeling like autumn around here but it will still be a few weeks before it really looks like it. Just like spring flowers, I’m trying to capture fall color whenever I get a chance. At least that is my intention. I can get easily distracted and…
365-274 Up and down
Today ended on a bit of a sour note. I was off from work so I slept in and got up pretty late. It was all dark and rainy outside so I played guitar for a couple of hours. I’ve been working on learning all of David Gilmour’s Pink Floyd solos. I learned a few of them in the past…
365-273 A graffiti day
I hope the viewers who have enjoyed my flower photos don’t feel alienated as I go about my 365 adventure. Flowers and nature are just a small part of what I like to photograph. As I have mentioned in the past, I can’t really nail exactly what my photographic style is. I know I don’t fit exclusively in standard categories like…
365-272 The pressures of fame
As if it wasn’t enough pressure to come up with a somewhat interesting photo every day, with my blog being featured on WordPress Freshly Pressed today I feel like the spotlight is on me now. I was at work and decided to check my emails on my phone and noticed a large number of notification emails about my blog. So using my handy WordPress…
365-271 One of these things is not like the others
Knowing that I would be busy on the job all day, I ran out at lunch to the park to try to find a quick photo for the day. I was attracted to these purple flowers with white stems ( I can’t find what kind they are) that were obviously knocked down by the previous rains in the area. I…
365-270 No rush
Although there are signs that the seasons are changing, it will still be about another month before it really looks like autumn around here. I hope I can do the season justice in the coming weeks. Last year, I had some camera gear in for service right at the peak time and it was tough to watch the colors go…
