One photo a day challenge: Day 292. I like the challenge of taking a relatively common item and photographing it so close up that is almost become completely abstract. Photograph an object in a way that it becomes almost unrecognizable as what it really is. I am trying to photograph items that might seem common or boring in a way that they become interesting once again. Trying to bring new life to… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 291. This time of year presents opportunities to photograph all sort of interesting things. There are lots of nature related items that are commonly used for decorations in the fall. I recently picked up several items to experiment with for my photography. I just never committed to do it. That is until today. I love the Ornamental Corn. I really like the corn cobs that have… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 290. Today I went outside at night to photograph flowers. I took my Lume Cube panel mini lights out to illuminate the subjects. I decided to photograph just one plant. I chose the Strawflower. Still blooming strong even into the fall. I worked with the variety of flowers still in bloom on the plant. Trying to find different angles to view each blossom from. Photographing each… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 289. My wife picked out this enormous potted mum. It is apparently the only one that I am doing a good job keeping alive. Not sure what I am doing wrong with the other plants but at least this one seems mostly healthy. It is such a beautiful plant. Flowers of multiple colors. Flower blossoms with multiple colors in one individual flower. I just love all… Read More
I really just wanted to photograph some trees and water. This nice stream and trees overhanging worked nicely. The leaves don’t really have any nice bright fall colors yet. But still a nice simple New York fall scene.
One photo a day challenge: Day 287. You don’t have to like everything about every day. But you should really be ready to accept the good parts of each day as they come to you. I have spent the past 10+ years commuting 1 hour to work and 1 hour home every single day. In the past year we have been able to work from home part time. It is the best… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 286. In photography things don’t always go to plan. Especially in photographing any type of wildlife. There is the simple fact that sometimes despite any planning your planned subject just doesn’t show up. But sometimes things work out. Today while outside mowing the lawn I saw a praying mantis. I stopped and photographed it with my Samsung S21 Ultra. The mantis did not seem to be… Read More
One photo a day challenge: Day 285. Wandering through the woods. Silently observing. Looking for an interesting fall scene. Leaves and trees. Some still up high some scattered on the ground. Leaves and trees alike. Tattered and torn. From one life cycle to the next.
One photo a day challenge: Day 284. Today was a nice relaxing day at home. Brynn Snuggled me on the couch and we took a nap. The weather was nice outside. Good lighting as the sun was getting lower in the sky. Seemed like a nice opportunity to go outside to hang out with the dogs and create some memories.
One photo a day challenge: Day 283. When you feed birds seed at a bird feeder occasionally a bird or other critter will take a seed and drop it along the way. That seed may end up in an unknown and unexpected location. The seed may sprout and grow. The seed may become a fully grown flower. This year a seed took root in one of our plante4rs on our back porch… Read More
