One photo a day challenge: Day 326. I think our cat, Peaches, has a real mischievous look to her in this photo. And that’s kinda funny because she is actually the least mischievous cat we’ve ever had. I used my white background to create a nice clean look for the background. That makes the subject of the portrait stand out. Peaches wasn’t sure what to make of the background. She was a… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 325. Holiday décor can always make for interesting photographs. It was interesting to get up close. Try to include as many elements as possible and eliminate distractions. The glow of the light through the cut outs are the focus. The decoration on the left glows and projects a tree onto the side of the decoration on the right.

One photo a day challenge: Day 324. Today I set out in the morning to photograph some waterfalls. And I set out to do it differently than I normally do. Normally when I photograph waterfalls my primary setup is my big DSLR on a big tripod. Then maybe I have another camera to capture different angles. And the main lens I use for waterfalls is an 18-200mm zoom. That gives me all… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 323. I love the variety of colors in this photo. Using some decorative corn cobs. Getting close up for a macro shot featuring just a small group of kernels. I focused on a section where the kernels were a little more irreguluar. Trying to find a spot that represented a wider variety of colors as well. Angling the lens to reduce the depth of field. Kernels… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 322. I like how this photo has one singular point of focus. That is the only area that is sharp and in focus. Everything else extending out from there is increasingly out of focus. More and more out of focus as the eye moves towards the forground. And the flower in the front of the image is so out of focus it is rendered as a… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 321. I feel like I haven’t don’t any pet portraits lately. I wanted to try using one of my solid backgrounds in conjunction with photographing one of our pets. Using the background with one of the animals would be interesting but have potential for really cool results. Our cat, Monkey, was up in her cat tower. I was able to set up the background behind her…. Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 320. Photographed three different red flowers today. Each of the plants are doing well inside. They each have multiple blossoms on each plant. I settled on this photo as one that I liked best. In this image a whole cluster of flower blossoms is in the frame. What I was able to accomplish that I like is featuring as single flower blossom from the middle of… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 319. I always wonder how well my plants will grow once I bring them inside. All the plants are in different states of health from the onset of cold weather once I brought them incside. Some still had flowers. Others had gone to more of a dormant stage. Some of the flowers were still actively producing new flower blossoms. One of the more hardy plants, the… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 318. Spent some time exploring the the woods around our house today. I just walked through the woods with no particular intent. Wondering. Looking. Observing. Trying to find anything that looked interesting to train my lens on. Looking for any last bits of autumn colors left on leaves and trees. There wasn’t much color on leave, but I found some. But the most colorful sight in… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 317. During what was mostly a rainy and gloomy day the sun peaked out for just a moment. This was my cue. Time to make the photos. I wanted to get outside and see if any of the few flowers still out there were blooming at all this deep into fall. There were still a few blossoms on one perennial. And there were also a few… Read More
