Photo 365: Day 344 – Scarecrow?
Scarecrow? Not really…
That’s my son enjoying snow this morning. I used intentional blur technique to achieve this effect.

Photo 365: Day 343 – Long Exposure
To be honest this was shot last night…
Had this shot @f/11 for 30sec exposure.
Photo 365: Day 342 – Sweet Bokeh
And my low light experiment continues…
Surprisingly we had a nice weather today and we took it as an opportunity to put some Christmas lighting this evening. So thought I should try few low light shots late this evening.
With my 50mm f/1.4 lens tried some bokeh shots and I thought it came out real nice.
Photo 365: Day 337 – Frugal cabbage, sweet potato soup
With sweet potatoes hitting 0.10/lb decided to try the Casual Kitchen’s – Groundnut Stew.
This soup turned out really yummy after some minor tweaks to the recipe 😉
For this shot, I decided to go with the top/down POV. Added sweet potato, and cabbage to this composition as these are the key ingredients in this frugal soup.
Photo 365: Day 333 – New toy
Another portrait for my Photo 365 project.
My 3yr old was in a good mood this evening and he didn’t mind me taking his portraits – may be because he was checking out his new laptop toy…
Photo 365: Day 331 – On a rainy day…
Another rainy day here in St. Louis. By the time I got home this evening after sitting in rain/traffic, there wasn’t any natural light for my daily shoot.
So thought I will shoot something to depict the weather here – that’s how I ended up with this rainy day symmetry.
As I had left my umbrella in the garage to dry out, I noticed the interesting color/pattern formed by the garage light falling through the umbrella. Had this shot with 50mm @f/1.4 for 1/25th sec exposure.
Photo 365: Day 329 – Two little froggies
Realized I haven’t done a portrait post in a while.
Finding a subject for my shoot was a bit tough this morning. I couldn’t have my 3yr old boy to stay in one place and my daughter wouldn’t pose – she got my gene that takes comfort in staying behind the camera 🙂
So I had to convince her that I will use the technique of selective focusing to put her out of focus…No I didn’t say that. I think that’s a bit too much for a 7yr old. I just told her that she won’t be in the picture…call me a liar!
Anyway, I like the way this turned out. Now I need to go convince her before she see’s this post 😉
Photo 365: Day 328 – Leftovers Panini
Another food related shot for my 365 project…
Whenever there is a feast there are leftovers and we ended up with Leftovers Panini for brunch. We had roasted vegetables (the good stuff) from yesterday and a quick warming, then on the stove top grill in-between wheat bread with cheese did the trick.
Thought I will throw in the grill and cast iron press in the background for this food shot.
My daughter was there to help me this morning by holding a white plate to fill in the shadows…by the end of the shoot, she said “I don’t like being a photo helper but rather be a gal behind the camera”.
I guess another young photog in the offing 😉
Photo 365: Day 324 – French Bread Pizza
Turkey pepperoni (pizza) on French Bread…that’s for dinner tonight.
And…it turned out really good with just a little effort 😉
Photo 365: Day 323 – Got rice!
That’s my wife’s niece giving a quick smile for this shot. They are visiting us for this Thanksgiving.
