Water droplets on top of my car. Macro focus taken at night. Lighting by street lamps with high ISO (5000).

The upper right is a reflection off the surface of the water, the lower left is reflected light from the bottom of the stream. I love the dynamic, prismatic effect of water.

Lately I've been very interested in creating abstracts through camera movement....the editing process for me is equally as fun and enjoyable as actually taking the picture. Through the editing process you can actually begin to see what you envisioned in your mind when you took the shot. Sometimes I like to push it just a bit further than I should just to see what happens.
An old yellow cracked window frame stands in its' corner, years of caulk and dirt enhance her life; she still provides warmth and refuge from the elements in elegant confidence.
Shadows and light have fascinated me for as long as I can remember, even as a child. So it isn't surprising that Paul Strand's photography excites and exhilarates me! Strand was one of the defining masters of early American modernist photography. He was also influenced by Edward Weston and Alfred Stieglitz.
I could have chosen many of my recent photos for this exercise on shadow and light, but I chose this one because it is different and I like the surreal feeling it has.
This was taken on an outside terrace. When I looked up, I could see big slabs of plain concrete above my head, but what really grabbed me were the shadows from the out of sight, striped canvas awning creating shadow stripes on the concrete as if they had been painted there. I could have cropped this, but just loved the reflection of the inside lights reflected on the big glass front - like other-worldly dots of energy seemingly floating in the sky!
This image empowers me and yet also allows me to dream! Leaving it in colour, gives a certain lightness to it, thanks to the space of light blue sky
