One photo a day challenge: Day 348. Had fun experimenting with some night photography. Tonight I worked with some of the newly added Christmas Lights outside out house. I used an f/16 aperture to create the starburst effect of the Christmas Lights. In the background you can see the just barely illuminated trees from the lights I placed out by the trees. And off in the distance the Christmas lights from out… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 347. Today I thought I would check in on some of the indoor plants I have growing in the basement. I have a little container garden going trying to keep the plants alive until next spring. Today I wanted to focus on the succulents that I have growing down in the basement. I like the look of the multiple stalks with the bulbous protrusions of this… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 346. Finally a clear sky at night so I can experiment with some night sky photography. Had fun trying out some things. Today I used one of my DSLRs and my full size tripod. I struggled to get my setting right and make the adjustments on my camera that I needed. I had a hard time getting the focus correct in the dark. I do like… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 344. There are a lot of places that I visit in order to run most of the time when I am there. Many of theses places are places that I love and many of them are beautiful. It always makes me sad that I often do not have nice photographs of these places because I usually am not there with a camera. I have ben working… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 343. Recently I went for a hike. And I went out for a very specific reason. I wanted to scout out an area I wanted to photograph. The reason I was doing this was so I would know how long a hike it would be to get there when I went with heavier equipment. Well, that day I did not find the location I was looking… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 342. Not the most successful attempt and night sky photography. It got cloudy faster than I would have liked. I struggled getting the focus dialed in. But, I like how this image turned out. Clouds moving through the sky. Trees with interesting lighting. A few stars popping out. I added to that with a preset in Lightroom.
One phot a day challenge: Day 341. Utilized another new piece of gear for my “photo studio”. A large 4 foot by 4 foot black background. Experimented with different lights. Tried different configurations of lights. Moved the lights in different patterns. Moved lights fast. Then slowed the movements down. More lights. Fewer lights. Only moving lights. Then static lights with moving lights streaking across. This last configuration is one of the photos… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 340. I finally received some larger sized backgrounds for photography that had been on back order. And I was excited to give them a try. I thought I would use them in conjunction with photographing some portraits of one of our cats. Our cat Paisley has been really friendly lately and was hanging around my office already. I thought it would be easy to lure her… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 339. Went outside for some more night time photography. Unfortunately the sky was completely overcast again tonight. Tonight I moved around and photographed from a few different angles and different scenes. At one point the wind really picked up. That created this exposure which is my favorite of todays batch. I wanted to feature this large oak tree in our yard in this photo. Then have… Read More
