Week 8 of 52 Photo Blog.

Published by Mike under Blogging

My last couple weeks I’ve been late putting up the photos. I hope to get it in on time next week. This is also another call for others. There is plenty of time left in the year to submit photos.

Chris stopped by excited to get to it early so the machine was powered up by 10am. YES this post is hours old but the machine was powered up by 10am. The lights dimed, miners complained and it started spinning. BUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

“Self Portrait”

This is self explanatory.

This week will be tough to get a photo since I’ll be out of town all week in Nashville, TN.

Chris stopped by and the machine was powered up. The switch was pulled and the lights dimmed. The wheels began to turn and music was played… The tickertape spit out this weeks photo to be taken.

“Unfocused”

Unfocused photography is one of those breaking the “Rules of Photography” photos.  You can get a stunningly dreamy or mysterious shadowy photos using unfocused techniques.

Week 6 “Adventure”

Published by Mike under Blogging,Photography and Art

Another week gone and another week of snow.  I thought of taking a picture of me driving to or from work. This would include this mornings drive.

I took a quick photo of Lady & Spencer playing in the snow. This is one of their favorite activities. The real adventure was wrangling them. Lady decided it was cold. Spencer would rather have stayed outside a few more hours.  Lady is the border collie and Spencer is the pekingese.

Published by Mike under Blogging,Life,Photography and Art

The day started out with a bad snow storm and me forgetting my camera at home. Once home this was followed by a not so perfect internet. Not forgotten Chris did get his photo to me on time. Here is his photo:

This should be interesting. Adventure or lack of or …?? Only the photographer knows. I could use a few more people submitting even if it means more work for me. Hint Hint. ;-) Jesse? Miki?

Week 4 photo “Plants”

Published by Mike under Blogging,Photography and Art

Another fine week. This last week was plants. I decided that taking a picture of a green plant while it was a frozen tundra outside seemed wrong. So instead I took the following.

“Data Tree Park”

Double the art here. I made the data trees and scene then took the photo.
