It was a gorgeous night to shoot the partial solar eclipse! For the first time in what seems like about a year, everything came together perfectly for this shot as I had planned it. I knew the northwest winds would have this windmill oriented such that it was "looking" at the sunset, and I even managed to not screw up the actual sunset location. Was only off by about a half of a degree! Typically I don't like to have man-made objects in most of my shots, but for whatever reason I absolutely love these huge wind turbines. They made for an incredible foreground!
Airport Fire Fighting equipment is specialised and expensive to run. Its only when you get close up one of these machines that realise how big they are and what huge engines they are fitted with.

Excerpt from here: www.rosenbauer.com/no_cache/en/rosenbauer-group/press/spe...
"Rosenbauer’s Buffalo Zetros allows relief operations at airports to be completed with great efficiency and competence. Particularly in trouble spots, the emergency services are frequently confronted by substandard infrastructure and rough road conditions. In such situations, Rosenbauer provides assistance in the shape of the new Buffalo Zetros 6x6, which in an emergency can be flown directly to the operational theater in a Hercules C130 and thus support the work of the aid agencies on a sustained basis.

My front door is always open. Open to allow the wonderful natural light to flow into my home. I really like existing natural light. I think that may be where my love of photography actually stems from. This month, this week, is my one year anniversary on Flickr. My pro account actually expires in 2 days. There is no question in my mind as to whether I'm going to renew it. Its a given.
What an enlightening, eye opening, learning experience this past year has been. I've always liked to take pictures. I've often fancied myself as a photographer. Don't get me wrong, I know my place. I am probably, in reality just an untrained, amateur artist just playing with a camera. But I do know that I have an eye for photograghy. Of course its an eye that is still learning. And what a school Flickr is. I've picked up so many different tricks, tips and concepts from observing all of your eyes on the world. I have to believe that my photographic skills have only gotten better with my affiliation with Flickr and all of you.
One of my contact / mentors commented one time that she thought I was struggling with finding a niche to fall into and develop my own personal style. I often thought about this comment. I kept wondering what my niche is. I like taking pics of so many different things that I didn't think it would be possible to define my self to a "type" of photographer. Some people take pics of flowers. Some do landscapes and natural outdoor scenes. Some lean towards architecture and other man-made objects and items. There are portraitists, wildlife capturers, still life artists. Then there are those who work in the abstract end of it. My problem is that I like to take all of it. Whatever captures my eye for the moment. What stimulates my brain and yells to me to get the camera and soak in the light. Some days I wake up thinking about going somewhere and taking shots. Other days I've no idea what the lens will focus upon then click, something happens and demands itself to be recorded. How its recorded is what sets each of us apart as photographers.
I guess it would be possible for two, three, four or more people to take the exact same photo. More than likely, though there would be some difference between the shots. Angle of perspective, point of view, close up, real close up (macro), wide angle; some sort of difference. However small, minute and subtle they might be, there would still be some difference. How the opportunity before the lens is interpreted by the person with the tool is based primarily on the persons viewpoint. As well as in life, that's what makes us individuals.
But through it all I think there is one thing that makes the ultimate diffference and that would be the actual capture of the light present in the moment in time that is being photographed. After all, that is the basic, essence of what photography is: the capture of light. By the nature of its being, the capture of light also intrinsically becomes the capture of non-light; shadows. I really love to observe light / non-light. To see how it strikes objects and defines them. Highlights some or all of it. Brings out certain shapes, colors and textures. It makes things more dramatic. In the late afternoon the angle of the sun setting permits only certain amounts of light and scenes change completely from what they appeared earlier in the day. At night when the amount of light is diminished, I love to see what little light there is and how it does its magic on things it falls upon creating shadows and silhouettes out of everting. But my favorite time of all would have to be early morning. Coming out of the darkness. the light of day slowly, gradually increases. Again, a scene will take on a completely different feel than at any other time of day. If you think about it, it could actually be described as being polar opposite to late afternoon light. Yes, I love to watch light manifest then recede in its daily ritual. A natural extension of this love is to try to capture what I see or how it makes me feel, with my camera.
Thinking about my camera it is actually just over one year since I purchased my DSLR. My profile page describes my cameratic evolution. To summarize I shot for a while with a 35mm camera but never got proficient enough to make myself happy. I bought a compact digital camera several years back and although I was intrigued by the digital process I never really took to the little fella. So last year I stepped up to the DSLR and really feel in love with photograhy anew. It allows me to express myself in a way that is internally rewarding. the ability to change the degree of light being recorded makes is such an enjoyable craft. I think I've recently become so much more adept at being able to look at a scene and think what settings it would take to capture the light in a manner as to put forth an image that almost comes from my mind's eye.
Through it all and although I may still take pictures of every sort and manner, it will be the actual capture of the light that will be my primary focus when taking the shot. Some shots demand a lot of light to bring forth the image in its true essence. Other shots only require the minimalist stream. So as I go forth trying to perfect my craft (for yes there is so much more to learn) I will define myself as a capturer of light first, and hopefully the other details will take care of themselves.
I would like to take this moment to thank all of you with whom I've developed a relationship with while being on this social networking site that has no equal. Thank you for your support of my work. Thank you for putting forth your own work. For in the observing of others photos we learn to become better in our own photos. And thanks for all those that have taken the time to leave a comment or have expressed such a liking of a piece as to favorite it. I read a quote one time and it has stuck with me: " Creativity is Scary". It takes a lot to put your energy into some craft and think you've got something to be proud of and then expose it to the eyes of the critics of the world. Sometimes it gets discouraging to put a shot up here and find that nobody sees what you saw. But lest you not be dejected. Just keep shooting what you see for that is the truest form of what this craft is about and the best way to learn. And even if nobody, not even one person, views your shot; if its something that moved you and you think you've captured what you wanted to, then that's all that matters. See the light.

It's the first thing i made using photoshop, so as you see it's not that good but i like the fact of having an Egg Chair in my dock for Front Row instead of an old armchair

So after watching this video, I decided that I had to see what was in my front forks. I popped the screw out and nothing came out. I then had to pump the shocks to get the oil coming out. It seems pretty darn thick. I have no experience working with these I don't really know what to expect. The oil didn't seem too dirty, but again, I'm inexperienced and there isn't alot I want to assume. How does it look to you?

This is an old family estate outside of Boonville, MO. The home is in a continuing state of decline which makes it so much more interesting. Tour this home on weekends during the summer!
