Okay, I’m a type A wanna be type B. I took on this 365 challenge and I’m still at it. What do you mean it’s only been a little over a month! It sounds longer at 36 days. And, I’m still shooting on manual.
This is helping me understand the exposure triangle relationship and how to make the image come out the way I want it to. Of course some are shot with my point and shoot, some are of the dog and more will probably be, some are of the grandkids and some are taken on walks.
This challenge has also helped me develop a more keen eye as I look for things to shoot everywhere. I always have my point and shoot with me. Here are some of the less mundane images I’ve captured so far. A few have been on meetups, but most are from everyday life.
This was shot during a Meetup. I think I posted a different version on a blog.
I took this today while walking the dog. I processed it as a single photo in an HDR program and then in Lightroom.
I took this when the younger grandkids were playing with bubbles.
Later I thought I’d crop it in more to see whether the bee was in sharp focus.
During this walk, the bees were active. I posted this image.
This was a try at an abstract using water, oil and food coloring.
When you’re getting your tires worked on, what do you do? I took a photo!
This one was from a visit to the Sacramento Historical Cemetery. It was a subject of one of my blogs.
This was one of my first attempts to stage a shot.
You may remember this one that was from a photo outing.
This was from a photo outing too.
I was practicing at a creek one afternoon.
I posted this one also from The Aerospace Museum.
My only other try at staging a photo. I was trying to emphasize the color green.
