There’s only one rule in photography – never develop colour film in chicken noodle soup.
Freeman Patterson
I’ve never made that mistake before but it does make sense to me.

A Window Smile
Smiling at the world As I walked out of a local coffee house I noticed this little one standing at the window checking out the world as it went by. I loved the smile and exchanged waves. I then had to compose and shoot two images. After taking the photo I notice her mother inside the store, vacuuming. I motioned to the mother who opened the door so I could ask if it was okay. Our world needs more smiles.

It Was a Scorcher
Shadows are following you The temperature rose above 40 degrees yesterday. After more than a week of high temperatures below freezing and nighttime temperatures in the single digits, people were out without jackets, riding bicycles and spending Christmas gift certificates. I just happened to be out on the streets of Old Town with my X-E1 and the 27mm lens. People casting shadows are what I found.

Waiting ….

Buy a good pair of comfortable shoes, have a camera around your neck at all times, keep your elbows in, be patient, optimistic and don’t forget to smile. – Matt Stuart

They’re Fake
Mannequin – Key West Isn’t it amazing what you find in your archives. I cracked up when I discovered this image a couple days ago. What was I thinking when I took it? Was I even thinking? Why did I keep it? The image is a bit underexposed and out of focus, because it was shot at 1/5 of a second, but for some reason I kept it. Oh, the mind and it’s ways. Enjoy the rest of the week!

Morning Shadows
Morning Shadows Photography for me is not looking, it’s feeling. If you can’t feel what you’re looking at, then you’re never going to get others to feel anything when they look at your pictures. – Don McCullin

Tremble Court
Passing Through Tremble Court Tremble Court is a small store in the Old Town Square. Three walkways meet at the store’s front door, one being an alley. As I was walking through Tremble Court towards the square I noticed this woman walking towards the court from the alley. I walked past the three way intersection while composing an image in my head. I then stopped and turned to wait for her to pass through. She is coming from the direction of a homeless shelter and with her heavy bags I assumed her to be homeless. I took two images as she walked by. She was carrying what I assume to be all she had. Her body is stooped over due to a bad back, heavy bags or both. When I see homeless people who only own what’s on their back it causes me to realize all that I have.
