I drive by this tree often... never has it been so formidable. It's strength brings it through the fog to be seen as a pillar of nature. A guide to all those around. Obscure, yes, but no less powerful.
When you are at the pool splashing around... take something more than a snapshot. See the action differently. See the mottled reflections in the water. See the glow of the smiles around you. Take your shot. Then get wet. Get Splashed.
I have been drawn to color and form lately. The composition of shape and the progression of lines and contour. Taking a photo of a hot tub can easily be so snapshot. As with most images, I'm looking for a new perspective, a way to see the subject without just looking at the subject. Do you ever see things differently?
This is my near daily photography web log. I got interested in photography in high school and have been taking shots ever since. I am still developing techniques and honing my eye. I tend to gravitate toward macro shots, small subjects and low perspective. Have fun digging through the blog and looking at old posts. You will see that I have worked through different processing, framing and display techniques along the way. It's all in an effort to learn something new. All of these photos were taken with minimal equipment and consumer level cameras. You can do any of this with your camera too. Thanks for stopping by. Leave a comment or ask a question. Let's learn this stuff together.
