palmed

4.6mm f4.0 1/100s ISO100
Sometimes...  like in this one. ha ha. I apparently had the timer set active when I tried to fire the shutter.  When I realized that I started laughing because the subject I was looking at was fading away.  At the same time I saw the hood collar was loose, so I went it to tighten it down.  Now the aforementioned timer was winding down...  and voila!  I got a shot of my palm.  This is an interesting set of angles and lines and shadows and highlights.  Mr. Baldwin, my HS photo teacher, called these "happy accidents."  I suppose it all depends on the eyes of the viewer.  For me... it works.

  1. Jason I am always inspired by your blog. It is always fresh and varied. Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you on your comments on my blog but i have been in and out of the hospital and not feeling well in between. I have been finding a whole new adventure with my photos with the editing programs. I have found I love doing art edits as much as regular photography. If you ever want to try some editing software let me know I know of some freeware you can try before you lay out the big money for photoshop. Have a nice day Johnina
