I came home with a questionable collection of photos I took today thinking I could make something work. Considering my photos were of basically nothing I knew I had my work cut out for me. It was one of those days. I took photos af almost anything but at the same time knowing that they were total garbage. So this photo is the best…

365-236 Accidental theme
I know I spoke of wanting to do a set of photos with a theme but that’s not what I planned for today. I didn’t get out until late to take any photos but it was still sunny and clear and I really didn’t feel like taking any normal photos. So I thought I would go to a nearby park with…
365-186 I see you, ICM
I have been so bored with my photo output lately. Maybe its just been the subjects, or lack thereof. And again today I found myself out on a beautiful day and just not finding any suitable subjects. So on a drive through the park and looking at all of the trees I decided I would try some intentional camera movement (ICM).…
365-165 A new place and some processing fun
I discovered a nice park and lake not too far from my home. It’s kind of hidden behind some affluent suburban neighborhoods. It’s a decent size lake surrounded by wooded areas with nice paths. A lot nicer than my city park. I’ll have to go back and visit soon. The woods are really nice with mature trees and lots of…
365-153 Another last minute shot
It’s been a really long and trying day. I was dealing with employment issues which I’ll discuss later. I didn’t get around to even thinking about a picture until near sundown. I happened to be near a park and pulled in just as the sun was filtering through the trees in the woods. I only had my DA55-300 and no tripod, so…
365-138 Mingo Creek
I took a spin through the county park after it finally stopped raining this afternoon. I wanted to try my hand at some flowing water shots and since I don’t own a ND filter yet I had to wait until the light level dropped. And, wouldn’t you know it, as I reached the park the SUN started shining! It was nice to…
365-118 Probably the last of the blossoms
Today was a trying and emotional day and I’m still feeling a little down. I don’t like to talk about my personal life much online but I’m going into the fifth month of being layed off from my job. This is after being layed off last year for 5 months and only 7 months work in between. The financial toll on my…
Additional photos from Oglebay Park
Just a few extra photos from visiting Oglebay Park yesterday. Like I said earlier, I think I have enough flower shots for a while. I’m going to try to get back to normal. Enjoy!!
365-108 Postcards from the edge
Whew, it’s tough thinking of catchy post titles :-). Another postcard image for today. A spring scene I saw while driving through town. The tree caught my eye first and when I saw the flowers I knew I had to get a shot. I drove around the block and came down the road alongside the house. I was able to shoot…
365-106 When there’s nothing to shoot…
…you shoot nothing. The lighting this afternoon was incredible. After the rain cleared there were still dramatic clouds and coupled with the late afternoon sun it was simply beautiful. That would all be cool if I lived in the shadows of a nice mountain range or the desert southwest and I could capture some sweeping landscape shot. Instead I was…
