All I keep seeing is yellow flowers everywhere. They are nice and everything but some color variation would be pleasant on occasion. But I guess I can’t ask for much this time of year. That being said, I may as well take advantage of them and do a few “summery” shots before everything turns brown. I decided to do some experimenting with in…

365-253 Is that a rock?
Driving down a dirt road in a landfill this foggy morning I spotted this little guy walking in front of me. I grabbed my camera to take a quick pic but he was pretty shy and quickly hid inside his shell. So I waited and every time I would try to get a photo he closed up. My brain seems…
365-249 Time for a new camera?
Found myself in Wheeling again today to take care of some business. It was yet another constant rainy day. I took a few shots around the streets but I wasn’t really liking anything I was seeing. I don’t know, just a creative low I guess. Maybe it’s the weather. Yeah, that’s it! The weather! Okay, okay I know the final…
365-245 Rockin’
Woo hoo, I’m back home! It’s been a long day and I’m a bit tired so I’ll just post and run. I discovered this creation over the hill from where I quite often turn around my truck on a job site. For some reason the other day I wondered what was over the crest of the hill and I saw this!…
365-244 Hmm, took a while
It’s been a long evening. After going out to shoot some dusk photos and then heading back to the hotel after dinner I realized the batteries in my wireless mouse were dead. As I mentioned in a previous post, trying to process photos on a laptop without a real mouse isn’t an easy experience. So I ran over to Wal-Mart because it was too…
365-241 Action!?
One thing you won’t find too much around here is action shots. OK make that two things – people and action. I have a hard enough time focusing on stationary subjects! But this evening as I was walking around Charleston I spotted this young skateboarder, Jesse Oliver, who was jumping off a curb. He was gracious enough to let me…
365-233 Been there, done that
I revisited Oglebay Park today to shoot a little color for a change. I was there last spring for a previous 365 shot (365-110 ). While I was there today I shot some flowers, a few butterflies, and the grounds. All things I have done in past posts. The problem with the park is that it is so nice and clean I can’t…
365-228 Get lost!
No, not from here! That’s my advice on finding photo subjects. When I was heading to a job site the other morning it started raining very hard right at the area where the highway splits. It was raining hard enough where I was paying attention to the traffic around me and I went the wrong direction at the split. “Hey, I never…
365-227 Let’s review
Looking back at the past few weeks worth of photos, I really think I’m all over the place a little too much. I thought I would surely have a consistent style and rhythm down by now and this daily shot thing would be a breeze, right? Wrong….well, in a way. Although I still don’t see a style emerging, I do…
