More Photography

More organization, more purpose, more focus.

My new goal is to get out and about a bit more locally. Take most of a day, go see and photograph new things. While at the same time continuing to expand some old ideas. So a little over a week ago, my first day trip was a drive out to Fallsville Wildlife Area to photograph the falls. I decided to take US50 east and photograph some of the old cemeteries along the way (old ideas). I also planned on driving back via SR28 west and photographing those old cemeteries. That last part along SR28, ended up being too ambitious. Although I did drive back on SR28, I didn't stop to photograph any of the old cemeteries along the way. (by then the light was pretty harsh anyway) I did get some nice photos of the cemeteries along US50 and for all but the first 5 minutes, I was the only one at the falls, so with no one to shoot around or rush me, I got a few good ones there too.

Fall Begins

Although day time temperatures still reach the 80's, cool evenings followed by mornings in the upper 50's are a reminder that fall is fast approaching. At this point, summer flowers are all but past their peak, if they're still around at all.

Late Summer Blooms.

I generally don't think of Hostas as late summer flowers since most of mine bloom mid-summer at the latest. However, there are two clumps that always bloom a little later, like now. The flowers are a lovely purple too

Printing

I had these photos printed 5"x5" on metalic paper a few days ago. Testing a concept/idea for small prints of my work. I am quite happy with the results.
