At least on the days where I don’t put much effort into getting a photo, I don’t mind having nothing to work with. I just took a few grab shots of junk while out running errands and I didn’t even do that well. Half of the shots were blurry due to camera movement. It was fairly dark and cloudy out…

365-299 Darkness on the edge of day
I like it when I get a photo nice and early in the day. It’s a calm relaxing feeling knowing that I don’t have to look at everything in a photographic way or go exploring after work. I arrived at work this morning and like recent mornings it was still dark out. Though unlike recent mornings the sky had some nice bold…
365-295 Three of one
It was almost dark and I didn’t have a photo for the day. My wife and I were out for a little shopping and dinner and my mind was more on that then taking a photo. I have to be careful to not let the 365 thing drive me crazy and need to realize I must have a life also! I did try…
365-290 Turn around
For the second day in a row I have a photo of an old structure. Whereas yesterdays barn was a structure I was familiar with, I just discovered this house today. At lunch time from a project near Wheeling I thought I would explore a road I haven’t been on. Checking the map on my phone I saw that it…
365-289 Passing by
I must have passed by this barn a zillion times in my travels. It sits along a four-lane road in the middle of commercial and residential developments. I assume eventually it will disappear so I thought I should get a photo before it’s too late. The lighting seemed nice today and I was able to easily get a photo. I…
365-285 Zzzz
Back home again. It’s been a long day with work and traveling so I’m just going to post and run tonight. I’ll leave you with some autumn reflections. Pentax K20D, DA17-70. Edit: Looking at the photo today after getting some sleep, I think I need to tone down the saturation a bit. That blue is a little too bold. Note…
365-284 The stumbler
Hmm, this scenario has been happening a lot lately: I’m driving down an unfamiliar road looking for photo subjects. I then come to the conclusion that I’m going the wrong way, or not getting anywhere I want, or there isn’t anything of interest to shoot and decide to turn around at the first empty lot. When I turn into the…
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…
365-271 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…
