    Looking and Thinking

    Grasses against the sky
    Grasses against the sky

    This is an image of tall grasses, 3-5 feet tall, which are planted in a raised flowerbed. So probably a total of 7-8 feet tall. I have found myself just staring at this image for awhile because of the patterns they make silhouetted against the blue sky, puffy clouds and the starburst. It’s impact has come after pressing the shutter.What caused me to see this and then compose, frame and press the shutter? This is so simple but I just keep looking and thinking about it. It’s impact on me has come after pressing the shutter. It’s gotta be Cedric’s writings.

    Patterns of Leaves

    [ngg src=”galleries” ids=”62″ display=”basic_slideshow”]

    As I mentioned yesterday in my post we awoke to a wintry scene and cold temperatures. About 10:30 when it warmed up to 27 degrees I decided to take the camera for a walk. Wow! We still have leaves on trees but they are in the process of dropping. The past couple days has seemed like a constant scene of leaves drifting through the air. I love it! After the snowfall the leaves continued to fall as a part of their life cycle so the patterns and colors of the leaves on the fresh snow was to enticing not to take a few images. Each tree had it’s own colors and patterns to offer. Hope you enjoy!

    Happy Valentines Day

    Two Hearts
    Two Hearts

    Took the bus to the Transit Center on campus. Grabbed a mocha at the coffee shop in the Behavioral Science Building. When they called out my drink they also called out the name of some young lady who order a carmel latte. Her and I were surprised to see a heart on each of our drinks. Showing us some love.
