Day 157

Driving to Eugene , OR this morning in rain, fog and mist. I pulled over a few times to get my shot for today.
Posting a day late, I didn't get home until after midnight.

Day 154

Day 137

Another bottle and shadow. I tried playing around with shadows and was able to create 2 of them with the two lights I was using. The bottle is actually a royal blue and the background was white. I played around in photoshop to get the look I wanted. Thanks to "telzey" for the texture.

Day 101

As I was driving to lunch today, this scene in someone's yard just jumped out at me. I took a U turn and pulled over on the side of the road. Something about the dark tree trunks and pink flowers on the pink magnolia tree was appealing. Of course now that the world by me is becoming green again sure helped.

Day 90

My first attempt at doing a smoke photo. I was hoping to get something I could copy and flip to make a mask/face.

Day 76

I just love serendipity. I was cleaning out the refrigerator in the garage because when the power went out I didn't realize the generator didn't power up that refrigerator and everything had to be thrown away. At the same time I was thinking of looking around the house for green things to photograph for St Patrick's Day.
I brought three of these beer bottles, (which to be honest I've never heard of this brand, must belong to my kids) into my kitchen. I set on on the counter and noticed the light coming through one of the bottles from the skylight. I got a white foam board and placed the bottle on top and snapped away. I figured when you see some cool light, you might just as well take advantage of it. Photo taken, got some use out of a bottle of beer I was about to discard and my day is off to a good start.

Day 70

Day 54

Another macro flower shot. I tried my hardest to get a nice macro shot of one of these lilies open, but couldn't get anything interesting. This one wasn't opened yet so I back lit and side lit it and made a simple composition.
