Day 15


light

Another one where changing the perspective made the difference. When I first saw the light box on the side of the wall I had no idea what it actually was, but when I got closer and looked down at it to see that it was a light is when I noticed how cool it looked. I'm very pleased with how the photo turned out, showing a lot of the detail that stood out to me.

This would be a good example "looked better on the small screen", that and it's difficult to get an interesting picture of a cat despite what lolcats may lead you to believe.

Day 13


another sunset

I like sunsets more than sunrises, but only because it doesn't mean I had to get up early to see it. I feel it's easier to enjoy them knowing I've survived another day. The clouds help add some character in this particular picture as they hide the sun.

Day 12


the sky at dusk

I liked the way the sky looked, so I started taking pictures. Unfortunately all pictures of just the sky and cloud cover didn't really show any of the detail that I was wanting, so I tried with the lights visible and this is what I got.

Day 11


lighting up life

Sometimes, to find the photo that's really going to cut it, you have to step back... or step down. It's important to try and look at things from a different perspective, ordinary things can look new.

I like how the light and shadows work together in this photo, looking at the light from the normal angle would have meant missing out on a lot of that.

Day 10


looking up

This photo was taken about an hour or so before the severe weather warning and tornado panic (never touched down, but we hid anyways). What gets me about this photo is the different shading that goes on. The sun had moved behind a cloud as I was trying to snap this taller panoramic shot. Still not prefect on layering, but lets see you try this on your phone. ;-)

Day 9

I've been meaning to check the quality of a true panoramic night-shot from my camera for a few days now, and today I finally took that time. The thing with night-shots, even with "real" camera's, is that you have to be careful of too much shaking. You can use tripods to help you out with normal cameras, but cellphones don't have that option... yet. They try to make up for it with, what seems to be, a better quality "steady shot" than I've seen on any regular camera. The result, seen in the picture.
