Are You Feeling Lucky

Are You Feeling Lucky

This was last May on a trip up to Northern Ohio. The family was all in church, but the boys were acting crazy, so since it was a beautiful day we walked around the church grounds. I know it's not perfect, as the horseshoe is cut off on the right side. However, grabbing a shot with the pocket camera while running after the boys I was happy with this.

Morning Sunshine Through the Truck Window

Morning Sunshine Through the Truck Window

Really longing for this weekend getaway. Pretty much a year past. What an awesome time away. I had visions of doing this as an HDR shot, but I have still to get the handle on doing that. Had all sorts of ideas in my head, and finally a year later playing around with it and having another year of Lightroom under my belt I got it pretty close to what I saw in my head as I set up for this shot. If you live in Cincinnati, Indianapolis, or Louisville, and haven't been to Brown County, and you like laid back, sip your coffee in the morning type vacations..you need to go. Check out a cabin rental from Hills O Brown. We've stayed in 3 and all of them have been great.

Urban Oasis

One of my favorite lunch activities is to go stretch my legs and go walk around downtown. It is a doubly enjoyable time when I bring a camera along. Even though I go past the same scenes day in and day out it's still a fun time. I wish I was more of a people shooter because I really notice the unique style of people you pass on the street on these walks.

this scens caught me because of the amount of plant life on the little metal landing. I had a suburban apartment that I did this with, but it overlooked the woods, but this is cool because of the contrast of city apartment, and the 'garden atmosphere'. I also really liked the color pop of the brick, the bunting and the beautiful blue sky day.

Lightning Strike

Lightning Strike

Love, Love, Love this. Happy accident. Last month I did a 1 year birthday party. At the very end of the event these guys got together for a shot. I had my flash on camera, pointing at the ceiling with a diffuser on. I noticed an oddball light pattern on an earlier shot, and it was annoying since the shot didn't lend itself to the 'look'. Well, I'd love to say I learned from that and planned this, but it was dumb luck. I saw it when I uploaded the shots, and with the poses I immediately thought this was a bit like a CD cover. Tried a photoshop high pass filter x2, and coverted to BW in Photoshop. Played with the contrast some in Photoshop too, and then brought it back to Lightroom to process some more. It's not perfect (lousey wall in the background), but I love the look, and the 'accidental' lightning 'strike'.
