After I did my 365 shot today the rain changed over to snow. I thought that would be a good time to drag out the Super-Takumar 50mm lens and take a few wide open bokeh shots. These photos were taken behind a shopping plaza. Enjoy!

365-302 Just a 365
I’ve been in a little bit of a slump lately, not just artistically but in general also. Life has just been catching up with me and I let it. I just have to make some changes soon in order to carry on in a more positive way. It’s not any health or family issues, everything is fine in that regard,…
365-53 Make up day
I’m going to try to make up for the lame shot I did yesterday. I had an early appointment this morning and woke up to six inches of fresh snow. I figured a new fresh blanket of white should help me get creative again. It did, but I didn’t really take any “snow” shots, nor did I venture far from…
365-43 Duck pond revisited
Another visit to the pond in the local cemetery today. It’s always a good place to get a shot and there’s always ducks, geese, turkeys and deer roaming around. I stuck with the ducks today. I had to deal with some lens flare in this shot and the sun is a little brighter than I would like, but “work with…
365-41 My daily and some observations
I was driving past the local college when I saw these chairs on the campus. It was under 20°F, so I’m not surprised that any students were taking advantage of them. It will still be a couple of months yet before they get regular use. I used my Pentax K20D and DA55-300 lens. As far as my 365 project is going, I…
365-39 Kinetic star
A little sun for the day, in the form of a mobile hanging from my neighbor’s porch. It was snowing again today. Soon winter will be a distant memory and the sun in my pictures will be the real one. Processed with a touch of Topaz Adjust to punch up the color a bit. Pentax K20D, DA55-300 Going Mobile
365-35 Different color
Photo for today is a sunset, mostly because it’s a rare sight as of late. I feel warmer already. A pretty straightforward shot taken at a nearby farm. Pentax K20D, DA17-70 Sundown
365-33 Packers fans?
Now for something completely different! A quick visit to a pond in the cemetery today. I wanted to get a duck picture, just for a change of subject matter. I’m not a “wildlife” photographer usually and I don’t have the gear or patience to pull it off well. But I like the shot and I’m sticking with it! Unfortunately, being…
365-30 City homes
I didn’t spend too much time trying to shoot today. While driving through town, I spotted this old dilapidated house . A nice looking place that at one time, I imagine, was an attractive home. There’s a few houses like this around. I guess with the proper funds it could be restored to its former glory. Unfortunately the rest of the…
365-28 Winter is still here
Day 28 of my 365. I think I’m hanging in there. I know I haven’t taken so many photos of winter scenes in the past as I have this month. I thought I would stick with a simple composition today. I would have liked it if the horizon wasn’t in the middle as much but I didn’t have much choice…
