One phot a day challenge: Day 235. One hour commute home. Let the dogs out. Feed the dogs. Change clothes. It’s hot. Put on light weight clothes. Get in the car to drive out for a run on the Lackawanna Trail. The trail was in the shade. Watched beautiful clouds. The clouds were taking on beautiful colors. As we were finishing our time on the trail, the sun was setting. Get back… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 234. When I photograph dogs at a dog show I am usually focusing on their movement. I like to capture moments in time as the dogs move across the show ring. I like seeing how they move. How they express themselves in the ring. Photographing their behavior during the show is always fun. Dogs are amazing creatures and capturing phots of them performing at their best… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 233. I really enjoy working with water as part of the subject matter. It’s possible to photograph the same thing over and over and the photo is never quite the same because the water always changes. Flowers after a rainstorm are a great example of that. I have photographed the same flowers repeatedly this year. But after every downpour the pattern of water droplets on the… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 232. I headed outside to photograph some of the nature surrounding our house. I figured I would end up focusing on flowers. As I began photographing I didn’t really have a plan. Photographing a few flowers here and there randomly. Walking around the yard to see what was growing. What was nature up to. Flowers in bloom. And there were a bunch of caterpillars on our… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 231. In case you haven’t noticed by my photography here, I love dogs. Dogs are the best. I absolutely love sharing my life with dogs. Lots of people fall in love with a breed of dog. They then spend their lives living with dogs of that breed. In our house we have fallen in love with Bernese Mountain Dogs. But does anyone else find themselves falling… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 230. Plants are quite amazing. Flower specifically are astounding. They grow in an incomprehensible array of shapes and sizes. Flowers take on all types of structures and forms. Flower colors touch every possible shade and hue of the visible light spectrum. If you can imagine it there is probably a flower that exists like it. I am kind of at a loss for words to describe… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 229. Today is a continuation of the recent theme for these posts. Focusing on the recent additions to our flower garden at home. These Osteo flowers are beautiful. They seem to change colors as they mature and blossom. I love the shallow depth of field. The small slice of the flower in the foreground that is completely in focus. Then there are three other flowers in… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 228. New flower day. Part I dunno at this point. The new flowers keep multiplying. I have no idea how that happened. But I still love having an ever changing selection of flowers to photograph. It is quite gloomy and overcast today. So I thought I would focus on the brightest of the newly arriving flowers. I trained my lens on this bright yellow False Sunflower…. Read More

One phot a day challenge: Day 227. So, some of my recent posts have talked about how I acquired some new flowers. And I have been trying to photograph a different flower from that new batch each day. Then share that new photos of the new flower on that day for this blog. I had been making progress on that. Not every day had featured one of those flowers but several had…. Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 226. Today was a great day. Spent the day out and about the Finger Lakes. Celebrating our 17th wedding anniversary with my wife. Beautiful day. Great temperatures for being outside. We visited Geneva. Walked 5.5 miles from Geneva along the northern shore of Seneca Lake through Seneca Lake State Park. Relaxed at the visitor center. Drove around to all the garden centers. Possibly acquired even more… Read More
