Flower Power
I was doing some work around the house this weekend and noticed that a couple of the orchids that sit out on the porch were blooming nicely. I decided to take short break from chores and take a few shots. It was nice diversion for a bit of time. I knew if I didn’t make myself take the time while I was thinking about it I probably wouldn’t think about it again until who knows when. My luck, by the time I would remember the flowers would be gone.
Watercolor Sky
I was in a bit of an artistic mood this weekend and this image provided a nice canvas for me to work with. The image was dark and moody with storm clouds to begin with so I simply built upon what was there as I worked with it.
Hanging in There
Although this was actually rather monochromatic and drab when I photographed it a while back I had a more vibrant presentation in mind. I finally took a few minutes to work on it and realize my pre-visualization.
Continuity
Even when photographing animals I’m looking for opportunities to render something artistic with my lens. It doesn’t always work out but I’m happy when it does.
It’s Been Awhile
I haven’t worked up an artistic black and white image for a long time. I went out shooting for myself for a change last week and this is one of the images I came up with.
