Good Day and Happy Friday. I had a very early meeting yesterday morning so no blog on Thursday, but some of you already knew that. 🙂 Today I have some (I think anyway) interesting patterns to show you.
The image above has not been altered in Photoshop (I’ve been known to do that.) On my way to work earlier this week I noticed these horses and thought it might make an interesting image. When processing the first thing I thought of was the 5 on the side of a dice. (According to the dictionary common modern usage allows the use of the word dice when describing one or more numbered cubes.)
Golf carts lined up and buried in snow at the Meadows Golf Course is a reminder that summer is still some time away. Many of the lessons I’ve taken about photography teach looking for patterns and converging lines. I just thought it showed the bleakness of winter.
Yesterday I grabbed a box of chicken nuggets from Mickey D, and decided to use my entire lunch hour in search of photos. I drove a lot of back roads and went through some small towns but I just didn’t find anything that compelled me to make an image.
I saw things that I would like to shoot but it would have required I go places that one should not go in a suit. For example I found a very interesting pattern in a snowdrift along a fence-row. To shoot it so that the pattern was apparent would have required getting up close and personal with the fence. I know I should have made the sacrifice.
I know, this is the dreaded butt image, however as I was coming back to town with an empty photo card I went past the farm service grain collection facility. These guys looked like they are watching a sporting event. Okay maybe that’s a stretch. I don’t know if they eat corn. Maybe they’re hoping for some spillage. 🙂
That’s it for today. I’m glad it’s Friday. It has been a long week. Hope you enjoy your day. Thank you for the visit to my ramblings. Be careful.
