Literally, a little structure. One of many hunting stands in the area. Some can get elaborate but most are of the few 2×4’s in a tree variety. This one, I would say, falls in between.

Fall of no color
I snapped this photo of a rural road today as part of my annual autumn theme photos. Since it’s still relatively early in the season the color wasn’t quite fully developed and a lot of the leaves were still green. The scene was nice but not nice enough. Instead of a wasted shot I wondered what the photo would look like in…
Nothing too technical this time around
I promise no more gear talk for a while. At least not as in-depth as that last post. Let’s get back to images starting with some hay bales I spotted in the fog this morning. Cliché I know, but it’s autumn! I’m sure you can’t wait for the obligatory pumpkin pictures! 😉 For the record though I did shoot this with the…
Into the frame
I was only going to photograph the snow against the sky (I do that when I can’t find anything else to shoot) and this little deer came running across the frame. I’m far from an “action” shooter so my reflexes aren’t too swift but I did manage to grab a shot before it ran out of view. With the contrast…
Dry time
This has to be longest dry spell I have had for a while towards photography. I’m just not finding anything that interests me. No lights, no shadows, no textures, no nothing. Granted it’s the crappy time of year around here and the days the last week have been, up until today, bright and sunny, which creates a harsh light that…
A bugs life
Speaking of small cars, the most iconic of all time is probably the VW Beetle. At least I think so. This photo is no where near what I wanted to shoot at this VW graveyard. My boss spotted it when we were traveling one day and I thought it was a cool enough place to return for some photography, since I…
Who, wha, huh?
Between getting busy at work and following that with getting sick yet again, this past week has been somewhat of a blur. I’m still recuperating a bit but I thought I would at least fire up the computer and see what I can share h my loyal followers. Since I didn’t get to take any photos at all last week…
Rustling up some photos
From the city shot of my last post to more rural things. I see lots of cattle almost every day during my work travels. An almost constant subject on my blog and I’m afraid I have to go there again! 🙂 Trying to get unique and interesting photos of cattle that aren’t mine, during the heat of the day is always…
I know they’re in there somewhere
In a previous post, I had some photos I took at the local fairgrounds the day before opening, when things were being setup. I mentioned that I like to shoot the vintage (just old?) rides and games for the color. Well they are colorful, but I also think there is some deeper abstract photos to be found also. It wasn’t until I…
Simple
Since I am taking a bit of a holiday, I thought I would dig into the archives and pull out one of my favorite images from a few years back. Why is it a favorite? I have no idea. I just always liked it. It was taken near an old quarry and I guess these are temporary power poles. Like most…
