There is this huge retaining wall on the back-end of the parking lot of the closed shopping center I mentioned previously (365-164). It’s always leaking and seemed to be cracked from day one. Another thing done horribly wrong at the site. I always meant to get a photo of the cool patterns from the leaks but never ventured near the wall…

325-126 All about texture
I’m kind of running out of time tonight so I’ll keep the text short. I did my usual ride around town again and although not looking for anything in particular, I found textures more than anything. My 365 shot is just an odd sight on the side of an old building downtown. What the purpose is I have no idea but…
365-125 Times toll
I finally got around to shooting that machinery I mentioned a couple of days ago. I tried twice before to shoot an abstract but the light level was just too low to work with. Today was certainly brighter and nicer than it has been of late. The machinery is in a shady area so I still was on the edge of being able to…
365-120 Met the quota
I can’t really say that I couldn’t find much to shoot today because I did. I shot this fence picture earlier in the day just to get something “in the can”. Good thing I did because it was pretty bleak afterwards. I wanted to find some textural or abstract shots but couldn’t find anything until the light got too low. I…
365-96 The park was so ugly yesterday…
…I decided to drive through the cemetery again. I think I saw more signs of life there ;-). I mean there were more people, some just out for a walk, some doing cemetery things, and there were a few buds in the trees. So it was a little nicer than the park was. I took some pictures of a few…
365-95 I drove through the park….
… hoping, MAYBE, that there would be some sign of spring, but it looked like February without the snow. No buds, no leaves, mud, dead grass…..aaargh! The other night I was looking in some of my photo files from last year at this same week and there are pictures that I took in the park that show spring blossoms and bright green grass. It’s crazy how…
365-76 Another day of nothing
Couldn’t find much to shoot today. I took a few photos around town and ended up liking these pillars the best. Pentax K20D, DA17-70. Strength
365-72 A visit to Roberts House
Aaaargh, I don’t know why I keep losing ALL of my text after I publish a post. It’s getting aggravating. Okay, back to my story. I discovered this old house in a neighboring town that was constructed, I believe, in the late 18th/early 19th century. It’s called Roberts House. I don’t know what the historical significance of it is except that it…
365-61 Most interesting place in town
Took a drive through the cemetery, again, because there was absolutely NOTHING to shoot today, at least around where I live. Sure, it was a bright sunny day but that just highlighted how dirty and dull everything is this time of year. It says a lot about a place when the cemetery is the most interesting, photogenic place in town. …
365-58 A late one
12:02 AM. I guess I missed my post today by a few minutes. Well it’s late, so I’ll keep it short with a simple shot. Pentax K20D, DA17-70 White Wall Blue Sky Edited to add a shot from the other side:
