Photographers Log – Week 4

Photographers all have their odd little fascinations. I love taking photos of water. Lakes, rivers, streams, even condensation. This week I decided to see what I could do with the droplets forming on my window in the morning. I enjoyed the result so much, I repeated the experiment the next day in different light.

My second image this week was actually taken with my cell phone just before leaving choir. (If you enjoy singing a group, you should consider joining the Saskatoon Choral Society. There is no audition required, and it is a truly lovely group of people.)

Photographers Log – Week 3

[dcs_img_left_ngg pos=”left” framed=”black” lightbox=”true” mright=”15″ w=”267″ h=”400″ pid=”543″] [dcs_img_left_ngg pos=”left” framed=”black” lightbox=”true” mright=”15″ w=”267″ h=”400″ pid=”549″] Hello Saskatoon! This is week 3, and this week I am tackling outdoor subjects. Snow, much like a wedding dress or any other bright white subject, can present interesting photographic challenges particularly when photographing outdoors where light is harder to control, so I decided I would venture out into the cold a few times to catch some winter beauty in my neighbourhood.

My second featured image this week has a little diagram in the corner to illustrate the “face” I saw when looking at this tree. As I walked by, it just struck me that the knot on the right looks for all the world like a monocle on the face of a grumpy muppet. (I am very in touch with my inner child.) As always, click on “More” to see the rest of my images for this week.

Hello Saskatoon! This Friday, January 4th marks the beginning of  a project I’ve been wanting to do for a long time. Starting today, I will be taking one photo a day and posting the results of the week on this blog every Friday. Some of these will have Photoshop done on them, some will not. Most of the ones from this week have at least a little bit. There are no set themes, but each week I will be taking at least one photo of what’s outside one of my windows, and one self portrait. If any of you shutterbugs out there would like to join in, grab a camera, snap a photo and post a link to your blog or flickr account in the comments.
