One photo a day challenge: Day 93: Today I spent some time at one of our local parks looking for migratory birds to photograph. It is the time of year migratory birds start arriving in and moving through our area in New York. There is a local park right in my home town with a small lake that seems to be a regular stop over for many birds migrating up farther north…. Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 92. Today I did something a little bit different with my one photo a day challenge. So far the challenge has focused on using my DSLR and Mirrorless cameras to create photography. Today I wanted to expand that to use my other tools I use to create photography. Today I went out on what turned out to be a 17 mile trail run with a friend…. Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 91. We have been experiencing beautiful early spring weather here in my region of upstate, New York. Then this overnight snowstorm swept through the area. At this point I am pretty much ready to be done with snow. But snow can make for beautiful photography subjects. If there had to be a storm the timing of this one was very fortunate for me. Today was the… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 90. One of the challenges of this project so far for me has been thinking of something different to photograph each day. I could go out and photograph the same thing over and over, but that doesn’t inspire me right now. Maybe once spring is in full bloom and things change regularly that would be more of an option. Right now I really want to photograph… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 89. Today I decided to try something a little different. With the new spring plants starting to grow. Maybe I was inspired to grow. Take a Chance. Do something different. We have hyacinths growing as spring begins to warm. I decided to try to take a photo of them emerging from the ground. But something different to add to it. I took the photos at night…. Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 88. Today I stopped at one of our local parks in Elmira, New York on my way home from my commute. There used to be so many old majestic trees along this waterfront area and the park. These days there are so many fewer. I love all the trees that remain. This enormous Sycamore Tree is one of several behemoths still standing in the park. This… Read More
One Photo a Day Challenge: Day 87. I have at least 5 plants that I have successfully overwintered in my basement. If I hadn’t tried to overwinter them in my basement they would have died. I can tell that at least these 5 plants have been successful to this point because they are actively growing new foliage. I just discovered one that I had suspected would survive the overwintering had indeed survived…. Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 86. Today was another great day to sit outside at home and watch the birds in the evening. Recently I noticed the arrival of Eastern Bluebirds to our yard. The Eastern Bluebirds have been checking out the Purple Martin house in our yard as they search for a nest site. The martin house usually ends up occupied by Tree Swallows, but some day I hope to… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 85. We took our dog, Colton, out for a walk along the trails near the Chemung River in Elmira, NY. I of course took my camera as well. I had dog walking duties for the first half of the walk. Colton was being a maniac. It seemed he may rip someone’s arm off yanking on his leash. The hope was I could reign him in until… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 84. Todays daily photo is brought to you by having running friends. I didn’t know if I would run today or not. I thought I probably would, but I had a Zoom meeting right when I got home from work. So if I ran I would be more inclined to just run something short right from home. I would not have thought to take my camera…. Read More
