Year 2 - Day 81

IN THE ALLEY

Year 2 - Day 7

CHAOS.

Today's dailyshoot was take a photograph using strong converging lines.  So I took things that converged. Feeling very black & white as well I converted almost everything I took to B&W.  This one spoke to me, it might have said something like "Why are you standing under me a broken down railroad bridge covered in graffiti?" or something along those lines.  I wasn't listening, I had my iPod going.

Day 356: A different view

I usually hug the tree and shoot up, this time I put my back to it.  Its lovely to try a different perspective.

Day 280: Looking up

Today's dailyshoot was a light source.  Well, despite a beautiful sunny day - nothing turned out the way I wanted.  However, indirectly this totally works - it does power a light source.  Right.

Day 261: From the side

I was completely mesmerized by the way the petals of this zinnia looked from the side.  Although the most beautiful pink color it was so much more striking with a beautiful Green Portrait filter on LR.

Day 256: Cowboys' Stadium

Went lots of places today.  I think my husband's favorite was Cowboys' Stadium.  He especially wanted to see the big doors by the end-zones.  Yes, those big things slide open.  How cool is that?

I liked it better in B&W, but my husband preferred color.  What do you think?

Side view:  I loved the way it reflected everything.

Day 251: Waiting Room

I feel like I've been in this one enough.  Tomorrow at 4 p.m. I will be back again for more peeking up the sniffer.  Last check until after the long weekend.  Its not so much the office - but the almost 60 minutes of traveling - ONE WAY.  But the doctor is worth the travel (as well as my peace of mind).

Read pages 70-74 of my manual while waiting too.

Day 212: The Road to Know-Where

Do you ever look up and stare at a tree?  Its branches are like paths - you hit a fork and you choose.  It doesn't matter which way you go; there is no right or wrong only choices.  Sometimes if you look long enough you aren't thinking about choices anymore your mind just wanders where it wants to go and the stress leaves your body and your mind is where it wants to be.  Sometimes you have to know where it is you want to be before you can choose a path.

And sometimes, you just find a little peace staring up at the branches of a tree.

Day 199: The Park

Obviously on a black & white kick.  I loved the difference in texture from color to black & white.  It totally changed the picture for me.

Day 178 In the alley

From the low point of view.

Day 166: Wisteria

Again, a little different perspective on something.  Have you ever just looked up into blooming wisteria or do you only see the drape of the blooms?
