One photo a day challenge: Day 123. Today I wanted to find something a little different to photograph. I was looking for something that is not the typical subject for me. I looked around my office slowly for a source of inspiration. Then it hit me. I share my home with all these animals. And some of these animals have their own furniture. One such item of pet furniture is in my… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 122. Today we spent the day bird watching at one of my places to go visit. We went to Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge. The refuge sits at the northern end of Cayuga Lake in the Finger Lakes Region of New York. As we left in the morning it was bright and sunny. But as we arrived at Montezuma the clouds had settled in and it was… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 121. Today I continued with my theme of photographing our flowers. We went out and bought several new flowers to plant at home. I am always looking for something different. Something that catches my eye. I often like to get plants that I have never had before. This flower is very different than other flowers I have gotten. I can’t recall ever seeing anything quite like… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 119. Today I did something I don’t do very often. I used artificial light while photographing outside. We had been talking about lighting and using flash the other day in my photography class I am teaching. I talked about all the different ways that you can use flash and other types of lights to create great photographs. And I stated that I primarily use flash and… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 118. I know I have probably written this sentence many times on this blog, but I am going to write it again. Spring is one of my favorite times of the year. I especially love the time of year where everything growing wild is just starting to come back to life. Leaves are emerging and flowers are just getting ready to blossom. It is a magical… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 117. Today was day three of my photography class I’m teaching at 171 Cedar Arts. The focus for today was on shutter speed. We talked about how to use shutter speed to effect your exposure. We also talked about how using shutter speed for exposure effects other aspects of your photos. The most obvious effect shutter speed has other than exposure is on motion. So, today… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 116. Today I stopped by one of two local Osprey nests located on the Chemung River in Elmira, New York. The Osprey have been back in the area for a little while now with the return of spring. I keep hearing reports of them being on their nests. However, I have not yet made my way to see them this spring. I decided today was a… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 115. Yesterday was a gorgeous day. It was a great day for getting outside. The day was a perfect representation of what you want in early spring. If you are like me one thing early spring means to me is blooming flowers. Plants and nature coming back to life and growing after the winter thaw. I love plants and flowers. They are amazing in so many… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 113. Today I spent the entire day outside with my hands in the dirt. It was hard work. But it felt good. I haven’t spent that much time working in my yard in a long time. I spent the day transplanting 10 trees from the spots I initially planted them as samplings years ago to their new permanent locations. Big projects like that are not really… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 112. The last two times I was at Eldridge Park there were lots of great birds there. Birds that I had been looking for the past three weekends. Birds that I would really like to photograph. However, during he last two visits I was not there for photography and I did not have my camera. Since I had been seeing good bird activity I wanted to… Read More
