…and make it badder. My apologies to the Beatles This is really a grab shot. Taken out of my windshield while driving through town. It was incredibly dark and raining constantly all day which thwarted me from going on any photo journeys. I did go out to run some errands though and took a quick spin through town to see if I…

365-360 Counting down
It’s hard to believe I only have 5 more pictures to finish my 365. Seems like only….a year, since I started. 😉 Since I’m still on my holiday mental down time, I again didn’t put much effort into finding a photo today. But as the sun began to set, I thought it would be a good time to take a…
365-350 Say, can I have some of your purple berries?
Yes, I’ve been eating them for six or seven weeks now, haven’t got sick once. Probably keep us both alive. “Wooden Ships” by Crosby, Stills, and Nash is perhaps one of my favorite songs. I don’t know what is about it but I’ve always liked it since I first heard it as a teenager. Maybe because it’s mysterious and so different…
365-349 Rural portraits
Unlike the portraits I took a while ago for 365-129, I didn’t have a nice sunny spring day to work with. It was dark and rainy today so I couldn’t fudge too much on exposure. I just set the ISo at 800 and left the lens at f/5.6 and drove through the same area as those previous shots hoping to…
365-344 When I was cool
There was a time when I was cool, or at least thought I was. I had long hair, played guitar and was in good shape. I was a rocker with torn jeans and boots. Cowboy boots to be specific. Although more associated with the wild west and country music, there was a time when cowboy boots were rock-n-roll. I had a few…
365-341 A stop on the sidewalk
I took todays photos here in town. It was another dark and rainy/snowy day so I didn’t want to venture off pavement any. I was off work again because of the weather so I could roam a little. Usually that’s a good thing, having time to shoot during the day, but because it was so dark it didn’t really make…
365-339 Excuse me while I…
I don’t often show the “big picture” too often, instead focusing on details, but today I thought I would show a nice dawn sky. The color was beautiful from my unobstructed view high on the hill this morning. I usually don’t take too many photos until it gets light enough to handhold the camera, unless I want to intentionally blur…
365-336 My world and my ashtray
In case you haven’t noticed I’ve been stuck on a work project that has been keeping me in basically one spot from dark to dark the past few days. I apologize for the abundance of job site photos but I have to work with what I got. And that isn’t much. Mud doesn’t make for nice photos. 😉 As for…
365-334 Wired
Just one of those days. I was working all day, stuck high on a hill with blowing snow and exceptionally cold wind. And mud, lots of mud. It wasn’t pleasant. So when I had time to take a photo I didn’t feel like venturing out too far. And there’s nothing better on a day like this then to take a photo…
365-333 Just a quick one today
Detail of an old abandoned house…hmm, that seems like a familiar subject. OK, I won’t win any awards for breaking out of my comfort zone today. 😉 But I did like the colors presented here and besides I didn’t feel like running around too much today, I had to fix my furnace. But it’s good now, I’m warm, and this…
