They’re mountains and the scene is epic; what more can I say? 1 comment more ...

Here is the case of something relatively ordinary looking a little extraordinary. The car, parked the way it was, seemed to bode more energy and power than its simple surroundings suggest. 0 comments more ...

Note to self: When you take your camera out to take pictures, make sure you have a memory card to store said pictures!

So this is actually my second try at taking photos today, and I wonder if I could have got something with my other lenses… But in any case, here I present to you the flowers! The shot is simple enough, but I like the effect of the muted background behind.

So tomorrow, I bring the lenses and the memory card…

A blog redesign is a big step, perhaps even bigger than my homepage because my blog gets far more traffic. The concern is that people will land here and because the look is different, they won’t recognize it as ‘my’ blog.

Project 365 is an idea I’ve seen tossing around online various places and decided to give it a try. The basic premise is to take a picture every day for a year.  I started on July 9th and today is the 26th, so I have 10 photos in 18 days… hmmm. But I’ll do better — school has cooled off and I feel like I’ve gotten a better hang of what this project is going to require in terms of dedication. 0 comments more ...

The morning light through the tree leaves and then the blinds makes some beautiful patterns. What surprised me was just how bright this light was, even filtered, and comparatively, how dark the inside of my apartment is. But I love the way the pattern turned out. :) 0 comments more ...

I wanted to try something a little out there, so I took this one of my clock radio through my glasses. Shooting without my glasses is a little suspenseful, because I can’t see what the picture really looks like (no preview) till it shows up on the camera screen! But I like this one. So that’s what I’m putting up today. :) 1 comment more ...

After everyone else goes to bed, the world remains interesting and alive. This is a small farming community, not far from home. I love how the lights from the village are set against the light still in the Western sky, coming over the mountains. 0 comments more ...

It was a Sunday afternoon and a walk down the beach with my Love sounded wonderful. The only problem is we live a long way from the ocean, so we decided to try the local lake. Turns out the lake shore is a State park and they wanted $9 just to let us in. Well, we weren’t feeling that rich so we settled for a walk along the shady trail next to the river and spend a lovely afternoon together! 0 comments more ...

I went for a walk tonight and ended with a beautiful picture of the Big Dipper. I’ve always loved to look at the stars… 0 comments more ...
