Photography Project - Industrial

Image
New buildings are popping up every day in the South Bosto area. A good sign the economy is rebounding but not such a good sign if you need to park anywhere as the number of parking lots spaces gets increasingly rare in the area. Industrial - Construction Site Taken with the  LG Optimus Elite ,  handheld,  no p ost processing.

Photography Project - Ice

Image
I start off my photography project for this year with the goal of capturing an image (or images) of Ice. This seemed like a good topic to start with because of the frigid temperatures in the Boston area this holiday season. Icicles On Back Porch Taken with the Pentax K200d with the  Pentax DA 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 AL lens  , shot with MF. No flash was fired. P ost processing to remove dust spot and some color correction.

52 Weeks - A Photography Project Topics

Are you looking for inspirational ideas for your photos for this year? Well, here are the broad topics that I'm hoping to stick to for each week of my photography project for this year. I hope they give you some ideas for your own project, I'd love to see your own shots too if you wanted to follow along with me!   Rules: I have set myself the goal of capturing one (or more) shots over the course of the week following that week's theme and posting them in a timely manner is very important of course ;)  I reserve the right to amend the topics if weather or circumstances prevent me from fulfilling the requirement of that week's topic, but I hope to stick to this closely as I possibly can!   Note: I've decided to pick from this list any assignment I want over the course of the year and as many as I want in a given week or day but to end up at the end of the year having at least 1 photo matching each topic/assignment, wish me luck!

Happy New Year 2013

Happy New Year 2013 A new year, a new goal. Last year's a photo a day project fizzled out towards the end of the year, this year I'm going to attempt several projects, a photo a week project, a 'good' photo, not just a photo of something taken on my phone because I need a photo for that day. Also as side projects to my photography interests I'm thinking of starting a 'French Word of the Day' blog to keep up my French studies and also over the Christmas holidays my brother-in-law inspired me to learn chess. I've always known the basic moves but never really studied the tactics or played for anything or than a few times in my life, so I may post the occasional chess related rant or article as I aim to improve my skills.
