Shot these icicles on a tree in our front yard last night under street lighting. I had to bump up the ISO to 800 to achieve the bokeh.
It was real chilly last night (in sub zero) and I bet my neighbors were to think I am one crazy guy if they had spotted me in my front yard on a cold night 😉
Yup homemade cookies and milk…that’s the kind of day it has been 😉
That’s my son mastering his mouse clicks this evening 😉
Shot from a community event couple of days ago that I get to shoot pictures. This time I tried using my 50mm f/1.4 prime for shooting this event – so it was bit of a challenge for close-ups.
As the event was starting up, one of friend delivered the inaugural speech and I noticed the gentleman standing in front of me adjust the lcd viewer on his video camera.
I went for this composition with the focus set on lcd viewer and making sure not to cut off my friend by the podium.
That’ s my kidos last evening..with my daughter all dressed up for her dance performance for a local community event.
I like the look on my son’s face..makes me wonder, if he thinks – “here we go again…” 😉
It’s a snow day here in St. Louis area. Although there wasn’t much overnight snow accumulation, driving to work early in the morning was a bit tricky and kids got to stay home.
Got home this evening and shot this snow on the pine tree. Not the exact kind of shot I was going for, but I like the way this turned out 😉
Shot this back in October while visiting a park close-by home.
That’s my kiddo playing with his firetruck. I tried convincing him for a portrait for day:365, but I figured the best way to take picture of him is to get him involved in his play.
I like the way this shot turned out. Shot this with window lighting when it was raining outside, so it was a bit darker than it used to be.
One thing I have been wanting to try before finishing up my Photo 365 project is with street photography. I had a perfect opportunity to try it out last night. Went for a walk along Michigan Ave last night for about an hour.
One big issue that I had to toil with during my walk was bitter cold weather. I think the temperature was in the teens and the wind chill was 9F. May be I should try doing this again in summer time.
Shot this while folks were waiting for the signal to cross the road.
I picked this one amongst other shots for its festive mood and anticipation of waiting…
Shot these Hindu Idols at a friend’s house this morning.
We are visiting friends in Chicago and this friend of us whom we are visiting has a very good collection of Hindu idols and arts from India. Went through her collection this morning and picked these idols for today’s shot.
