One photo a day challenge: Day 62. Today was grocery day. That means it was the perfect opportunity to acquire a new subject for todays photographs. The store always has a nice selection of flowers. When photographing flowers indoor I prefer lighter colored flowers because that requires less light, which there typically is less of indoors. The flowers I selected for todays photographs was a bouquet of purple carnations. To photograph the… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 53. Today I returned to the bouquet of carnations that my wife had bought for me. I set up the lighting for the flowers a little differently this time. I also changed what I used for a background for the photos. Today I focused on two things. One close ups. Two contrasting the white against the red and the red against the white. If you appreciate… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 40. Today was one of those days I really didn’t know what I was going to photograph for my challenge. I wanted to photograph something from my office. The question is what? I felt kind of stuck today. I was looking around my office. The same things kept coming to mind. Looking at similar items that I have photographed before wasn’t helping me. I could photograph… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 39. Sometimes I am actually thinking about what I am going to photograph for this project in advance. I really enjoy photographing flowers. Working with macro flower photography fits well into this challenge. So when we were recently out running errands, I made sure to pick up a flower to photograph while we were at the store. Macro flower photography allows me to stay inside on… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 28. Today I am literally just standing in my room and looking around. Looking for that next photographic subject. Letting my eyes wander. Letting my mind be free. I really had no idea of what I wanted to photograph today. I went into my office with no intention other than to take a photograph. A photograph of….something. Tonight I had no preconceived notions of what I… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 25. As I mentioned in previous posts, I bought a flower to use for my indoor photography. I really enjoy photographing flowers and that is one down side to living in the northeast. Flowers are only in bloom from mid April to Mid fall generally. To make up for not having them to photograph in the wild I will occasionally buy flowers to photograph indoors. I… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 21. I had my camera with me all day today. It was cloudy and gloomy all day. I just wanted to have sunlight for a chance at a nice sunlit photo for just a few minutes. It is getting a little frustrating to never have good light for the type of photographs I would like to make. I kept waiting for the sun to emerge from… Read More

Today is day 8 of my one photo a day challenge. For the past coupled of years I have been taking plants we’ve had gowning outside in warmer weather and move them indoors in the cold upstate New York fall and winter. I try to keep them alive for two main reasons. One reason is I want to keep them alive so they can quickly grow and blossom early in the spring… Read More

One Photo A Day Challenge: Day 6 At least in the beginning of this challenge I am trying to have each photo be a different subject. I really like using my macro lens because it helps me lean into being more creative with my photography. And using the Lume Cube lights allows for more interesting lighting. I really wasn’t sure what I was going to photograph today. I like the challenge of… Read More

Day 5 of the one photo a day challenge. My wife and I decided to do an Advent Calendar for the first time this past holiday season. We found one that fits us perfectly. We have been huge FRIENDS fans. And we found FRIENDS themed Advent Calendar. I liked this one item that it included. It fits well for me so I currently have it sitting on my desk in my office….
