The story of ‘The Bird’ . . . I found myself walking down a street in downtown Santa Barbara, on a mission: I saw this home with a beautiful garden in the front yard – full of colorful plants and a variety of potted ones adorning its steps and walkway – that is where I […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 11th Another yellow poppy: around the corner and past my other neighbors house, there is this field – where wild flowers grow in abundance. And I finally figured out why I take so many pictures of flowers! After a month and a half of doing this project, it’s about time, don’t you think? It’s really about […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 10th July 9th, 2009 | Category: Everyday Life, Photo of the Day Today’s image and story line are short and simple and self-explanatory. I call it ‘man made’ . . . man made Perhaps a more fitting title would be ‘man made mess!’ Below is the same pole, but converted to infrared. At first I thought it pronounced the mess; but somehow, the more I […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 9, 2009 July 8th, 2009 | Category: Everyday Life, Photo of the Day Gerber daisies, a left over image from Melanie’s Birthday Party . . . gerber daisies of the pink variety But there is another story here that I just have to share. I was with her when she bought them, when she picked out these pretty pink ones – though you can’t really tell […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 8th July 7th, 2009 | Category: Everyday Life, Photo of the Day Got a little winded again yesterday! Happy Birthday to my good friend Melanie. I took pictures, a few, but mostly of Melanie and her friends. And currently I don’t have permission to publish them to the public – so you aren’t going to see any of them. But Winnie, her most lovable cat, on the […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 7th July 6th, 2009 | Category: Everyday Life, Photo of the Day Hmmm …m …. mm, let’s see, where should I go today, what should I photograph? I am thinking sugar and sweets and the most decadent cupcakes you ever wanted to indulge in. Yup, Crush Cakes of Santa Barbara – you guessed it. I am picking up a dozen of these delectable little […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 6th July 5th, 2009 | Category: Everyday Life, Photo of the Day Wow, long post yesterday – just to get to the images! I promise today won’t be so long – mainly because my time is running short. Today’s post is about dragonflies! Walking outside this this morning to get some fresh air, I was almost dive-bombed by this little guy (yes, it could be a gal, […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 5th HAPPY 4TH OF JULY . . . . . to everyone who reads this ! What other images could I post here except fireworks! First allow me to post a composite of a fireworks display I shot in 2007 on Kauai. It was a small private fireworks display that I was fortunate enough to be […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 4th July 3rd, 2009 | Category: Everyday Life, Photo of the Day From infrared to bright yellow. It would be nice to put a name with a face, or in this case a name with a flower. I can hear Ralph Clevenger yelling at me now (not that he would ever yell): you need to add the names of these flowers in your metadata. He’s right of […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 3rd July 2nd, 2009 | Category: Everyday Life, Photo of the Day Just because most of the photographic world has moved to digital capture and therefore digital processing of images, doesn’t mean infrared is gone forever. Today’s image is a classic example of the effects that can be applied in post-processing to garner the same rendition of an image as one captured by infrared film. The drama […] Continue reading PHOTO OF THE DAY – July 2nd |
