Today, To Morrow

500mm f4.2 1/40s ISO:200 & ISO:800
Morrow Mountain State Park, Albemarle, NC
We were out for an afternoon drive on Sunday and found ourselves driving through a state park.  Deer are not uncommon if you are looking forward them, but it is usually females that you see.  This day we were lucky enough to see an eight point buck.  We watched for several minutes and they went about doing their own thing.

my blue ocean unveiled

46mm f10 1/200s ISO:100
I took my camera into a salvage yard one day and explored.  I found this old car with severely weathered paint.  I suppose I could have stood 15ft away and taken snapshots of the entire thing.  That is what most people do right?  Well,  I took my "get low" shooting style right into the hood.  The previous days posts can show you that perspective and imagination can transform most anything.  See what you see and share it.  Someone else designed and created the things we see everyday.  We need to Am. Idol them sometimes when we take photographs...  you know... "make it our own."

coastline

Oxidized blue paint fighting off the bare metal rusted invader.  This car's hood has seen better years.  The shallow DOF offers a T/S effect and a 10,000 foot view of a vacation paradise.  I suppose we really can see things in different ways if we just look.
