One photo a day challenge: Day 202. Tonight I went outside tonight to photograph some flowers in the low light. I had an idea of what flowers I wanted to photograph. There were a few I hadn’t photographed at night much if at all. The goal was to focus on those ones. Other than that I wasn’t really sure how I was going to proceed. Look through the lens and let the… Read More
One phot a day challenge: Day 201. I am really excited about this photograph. Not because it is some amazing photograph or anything like that. I am excited about what this photograph represents. This photograph represents trying and failing. And trying again, and again until there is progress and then hopefully success. If there is something you want to accomplish, there is only one way to make it happen. Keep trying until… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 198. Today was a long day with a lot of driving involved throughout the morning. We tried to squeeze in some fun on our way home though. We stopped at the Cornell Botanic Gardens. One of my favorite places. Seriously, there are not many better places to go if you want to practice a wide variety of photography. There was a lot of time spent driving… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 193. I am pretty sure one thing most people can agree on is no one likes rainy days. String a bunch of those raining days together and your whole week is shot. Rain is not a bad thing. But rain can make enjoying the day a challenge. Especially if you are the kind of person who likes to get outside and do things. Some people are… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 192. The opportunity to create this photograph arose out of completely unintentional circumstances. I wanted to plant some bulbs over winter to bloom this year. Planting them in pots to keep them inside so they would hopefully grow faster. I don’t like to waste resources. I had several pots of dirt from plants I have planted in the past. Many of these pots still had the… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 190. This plant became very wilted after our recent heat wave. It looked like it was going to die. The flower heads all drooped and died off. Then all the leaves turned brown. I really wasn’t sure it was going to survive. Then I noticed some new growth. Stems with flower heads began to emerge. It looked like the flower was resilient after all. I was… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 187. Here is a different take on the new coneflower I bought. In this photo I combined the to flower blossoms positioned against the post sunset sky. I did some post processing to enhance the details. I also worked on brining out the colors in the sky.
One photo a day challenge: Day 185. Over the years I have planted many varieties of flowers at our house. More often than not I have not been successful in having the perennials return in following years. But there has been one flower that has reliably returned year after year. Maybe I just don’t pay enough attention to where and how to plant the flowers. So then they fail to regrow the… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 183. Tomorrow is race day for me. So I went to pick up my race bib and schwag. Then I since I was in the area I made a stop at one of my favorite places. I went to Watkins Glen State Park. Watkins Glen State Park is known for its gorge and its waterfalls. I took lots of photos. I photographed the waterfalls trying some… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 182. I finally got around to planting some flowers we had picked up. I wasn’t entirely sure what I was going to do with them. So for now they are each in randomly selected pots. As you can probably tell by now if you have been on this blog before, I enjoy photographing flowers. There was one flower from this newest batch that I particularly wanted… Read More
