Had a chance to take some pictures at the Midwest Music Conservatory yesterday while my daughter had her vocal music recital performance there. Elsewhere on the web, I read this place used to be a Methodist Church – really enjoyed my shots there. Although they allowed flash photography, I liked non-flash to bring out the colors/lighting/shadows. This was shot handheld 😉
Another foodie themed shot for week: 17
Unlike my last foodie themed shot (I used 60mm macro lens for that shot), I went with my 50mm prime for this melon shot and overall satisfied with this composition.
Read that as tandoori marinated salmon…
It’s been quite some time now since my last foodie related shot for my w52 project. I really like spending time on foodie themed shot(s), but it takes some time setting up the food/subject for the shoot and by the time I got it all setup and ready to shoot, someone is already hungry at home 🙂
Overall I am a tad bit satisfied with this shot – with 60mm macro, this shot ended up as a macro..may be next time I have to stick to my 50mm prime for foodie shot(s).
Had a chance to spend some time with the kids @Panera Bread’s – Bakers in Training (B.I.T.) kids program. As Panera puts it – it’s an introductory culinary experience for kids.
Surely kids had a good time touring the restaurant, scoring their French baguette, and enjoying a monster cookie from their bakery.
Shot this as my friends kids were taking turns in scoring their baguettes.
Where did the time go? Last was a busy week and didn’t have much time to shoot. Actually I did shoot but thought none wasn’t blog worthy 😉
Shot these spindles on a recent visit to the park close home. I was debating on the title for this post as it would fit for simplicity, monochrome, white etc. But decided to go with spindles…
Continuing with my summer blooms shots 😉
Shot this at a park close home. As I was experimenting with my POV, I noticed the lighting on this particular plant was interesting. There were tall grasses behind these bushes and with the evening sunlight half of this particular bush was in shade and the other half was well-lit.
Really liked the way the lighting turned out in this shot. I think it gives a feel that this bloom was lit by a flash.
Shot this coneflower at a park close home while waiting for my daughter to return from her chess club meet this evening.
It’s been a while since I last posted a macro shot and as I was looking for a macro subject this evening, I spotted this itsy bitsy spider on our porch.
Used Sigma 150mm macro lens for this shot.
Phlox is in full bloom in our front yard.
Shot this phlox bloom late this afternoon on a hot muggy summer day.
Another shot from my recent visit to the St. Louis zoo. These are fresh water fishes in a huge “cave like” tank housed just outside River’s Edge area.
