Don't you?
This was taken on the same morning as my sunbeam fence shot last week. I took this one before I found the farm fence. I was driving back from the lake and a lackluster sunrise and saw the sunbeams pouring through the trees on this country lane. As I was taking my photos, another intrepid soul pulled in behind me (so much for solitude) ... but it was another photographer with Nikon gear, so I forgave him. We talked shop: cameras, photography and this most amazing view unfolding before our eyes. I wish I had gotten his name.
The title (slightly rewritten) is from a song by The Smithereens. Saw them in a tiny club in San Diego in 1989. They rocked that little club; got our $5 covers' worth! Loved the beatnik look they had going on. The old man leapt up and caught the bass player's guitar pick (which Jackie quietly appropriated for her own collection)!
Happy Sunrise / Sunbeam / Smithereen Thursday!

Hi. Here's my fence. I'm experiencing writer's block. Please forgive me!
Sorry for posting & running; errands to run ... I'll be back later today!!
Happy Fence Friday
Keyhole Arch | Pfeiffer Beach | Big Sur
I recently went on a brief road trip with my daughter. I was so sad to see the dry, brown landscape as I traveled up the coast. Yesterday Governor Jerry Brown declared a drought state of emergency in California. It seems like the weather is crazy all over this planet.
Despite the brown, barren mountains, this beach looked the same. I applaud Jackie for hanging out with me in the freezing cold so I could get a few photos of my favorite spot.
Happy Saturday Folks!

Cheesy title, I know! 'Tis the Season I Guess!! I can't think of anything else at the moment. And another bird picture? What gives? I'm not sure as birds aren't my usual subject!
Nothing special today; just a Happy Tuesday!
La decorazione musiva di S. Vitale, che non sembra fosse più estesa di quel che oggi è visibile, ha 2 programmi iconografici; l'Eucarestia (raffigurazione dell'Agnello nel clipeo centrale e dei Sacrifici nelle lunette inferiori) e la il piano di Dio della Redenzione dell'uomo (figurazioni di Profeti, Apostoli, Evangelisti). I mosaici si S. Vitale sono straordinari per quanto riguarda la tonalità base che non è oro ma è il verde e l'impaginazione verticale ma anche la complessità del registro figurativo che si consuma al bivio fra partenza naturalistica ed esito astrattizzante, ad esempio nei pannelli con Giustiniano e Teodoroa raffigurati, senza ombra, idealizzati.

I do not know what possessed me to brave the arctic chill, but I grabbed the camera and headed down to the Fox River for a few sunrise photos. It was so darned, ridiculously cold! Do they make special gloves for idiot photographers? Because I need them! My fingers were literally NUMB after only about 10 minutes of shooting! I had grand plans to, quickly abandoned, and this is what I ended up with.
ng colors and squiggly lights punctuate this ordinary scene as the shutter stays open to let a bit of time accumulate. The figures are prominent. A line hints at separation and a fleeing figure makes me curious. The story is there and it's for each viewer to interpret.

I haven't had too much time to look at any of my photos. This is one I really like. A few of you probably already saw this on Facebook. Rachel called me from her morning commute and said I needed to get out there and 'shoot the moon!' And so I did! I had a bit of time to play with my 10-stop ND filter. And of course this was before the baby came!!
Today is the family photo shoot, then grandpa flies back home tonight.
Happy Anything Wednesday Everyone!! I will be around later this evening to see what everyone is up to. Been missing my Flickr peeps!! :-)
Spotted this interesting Ferrari while strolling in Wynwood, Miami. My husband couldn't believe someone would do that. It's definitely one of a kind! and I loved the way the light was beaming down on her.

Had a wonderful relaxing coastal drive during winter break.
This beach was wonderful for sunset.
Only us and the birds, leaving our marks in the sand.
Focus on the journey, not the destination. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it.
Distincion and details may hide behind glass but the nuances show through delighting my eye with shapes and color and horizontal sweeps of space.

Found Art 4839
An old fishing boat wears years of multiple repairs to its surface as it sit in disrepair at dock. But wait! A vibrant color palette draws my eye. Designs dance across the surface without rhyme or reason - except to be. The frame forms including wonderful shapes and textures. Weights and balances are in harmony. Art is found.

When the sun first burst through the canyon I was a bit disappointed. You are, afterall, supposed to avoid direct sunlight when shooting waterfalls. But sometimes rules are meant to be broken.

Bouquet
I went dumpster diving and found this bouquet waiting for capture. Rich colors join clear patterns and lines. I can almost reach out and pick it but use a camera instead to keep for the ages.

Mono Lake on Christmas Day
And just like that, the show was over. As all the gorgeous light diminished, there was nothing much to work with, and it was time to pack up and go.
What a thrilling ride that I was able to catch though!
I don’t know when I would be back again, but hopefully I can go back very soon. I was super glad that I was able to catch clouds hovering over the snow-covered mountains while having some fantastic reflections of them.
Okay… Now, I need another adventure...

shot was taken at Changi Boardwalk Singapore...
ICM, interntional camera movement, combines with double exposure to create chaos out of a colorful street scene. Buildings tilt and join forces for a multi patterned backdrop. The white line provides a path of excape. A story only imagined is created with a little camera motion and doubling the fun with darkroom magic.
