Today's ride along West Georgia was a stunner. I thought I detected a new maturity and richness in the colors.
Same scene, looking a bit more towards the mountains.
I always wonder what others think about this sculpture. I don't hate it, but I can't find meaning in it.
I got back on the bike and continued on my way, only to dismount seconds later, because I couldn't pass by these trees by the entrance to the causeway. Lost Lagoon, across the road from the above trees. I stood up on the cement barrier between the sidewalk and the park (not the one in the middle of the road:) Only way I could get high enough to avoid power lines in the picture. Home again to a beautiful moon over my neighbor's shrubs (again). I love her garden to bits.
It really varies, but if I don't stop (to take pictures, or have a latte, or meet Bill at the gym), it takes an hour, give or take 5 minutes. I work pretty late most days after school (typical music teacher) which is why you see shots after dark.
I love the fourth photo down - the dappled mix of colours on the tree reminds me of a Monet.
The last shot is amazing - I have tried many times to capture the moon in the night sky but always seem to end up with just a little bright dot on a black page. So instead I just stand outside and gaze at the real thing. It was truly beautiful on Wednesday night.
Thought I'd stop by and give your blog a look see, since I promised I would. Love all the photos you've taken. Had no idea you were into photography. I got into it a few years ago and it's a lot of fun!
As you can see, I decided to create a blog myself.
Thanks, Jean:) Lovely to get the feedback. Sometimes, I think standing and gazing at the real thing is just as, or perhaps even more, satisfying. I am completely hooked right now on trying to grab shots, so much so that it often seems a greedy endeavor. It's certainly great fun, and I can't seem to stop myself, so I will indulge myself for now, but I'm thinking some images resting solely in my mind wouldn't be a bad thing.
William, thanks for stopping by AND leaving a comment! I just checked out your blog, and you are talented! And quick!! Do you have any idea how long it took me to do my first entry???
How long does it take you to get home on a typical day?
