Strong Shadow

With plenty of sunlight in our dining area decided to do this fun shot..call it sunny day catwalk.

There was sunlight creeping through the shades and got this little super guy placed in such a way to get strong shadows and give the feel that he is doing a catwalk 😉

Reflection

Shot from the visit to the park close home.

I would have missed the reflection/shadows of those two trees if I haven’t changed my POV.

Roman Shade

I was quite surprised to see snow when I woke up early this AM..and we thought spring was in the air.

Anyway weather seems to be warming up rest of the week and will have to see if I get some time to get out of home and take some shots.

Shot this roman shade this evening as my son was watching snow and counting cars 😉

I was drawn by the lines and curves..still don’t know how I missed this earlier.

Shrimp ‘n dry gravy

It’s Sunday and had some spare time for a foodie shot.

I struggled a bit to come up with this composition. Originally tried these piled atop a rice and didn’t like that composition.

Then thought I should build a shrimp tower atop the rice bed..that didn’t work either. So went for this arrangement with the shrimp tower resting on a plate. Used some sliced English Cucumber in this composition to bring in colors and contrast the vertical shrimp tower.

I am  quite pleased with this outcome and yes this was delicious 🙂

Tree by the lake

I have been to this park close home umpteen times but never got to explore much…

But took a walk with my camera and came up with this shot…no wonder it’s been said and said…change your POV and keep your eyes wide open 😉

Perfect sunset

Weather wise it turned out to be a pretty good day. We had a sunny day and definitely felt like spring is here (finally).

That being said, sunset was pretty too…

Egg Again!

Yup Egg Again. When there is nothing else to shoot, shoot an egg 😉

Rain drops & reflection

A shot that depicts the weather here in St. Louis.

Star

Star – we are not talking about rock star here 😉

It’s the stuff that the flower’s petals are attached. I looked up Google and it’s called Calyx.

I didn’t want to sound like a botanist, so I came up with this misleading title Star

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

It’s Sunday and it’s time for a foodie shot 😉

Found a recipe for banana bread and tweaked it slightly to make it into a “fortified” banana bread – replaced about a 1/3 cup of flour with flax meal, wheat germ, and oat bran. The best part – the kids didn’t find it and they seemed to like it.

It took me quite a while to come up with this shot. A bread is a bread and I found it hard to come up with an interesting composition. Then I struggled with using the available lighting for this foodie shot.

Finally thought I should arrange it in such a way to reveal the texture. Then I had this shot with full sunlight to show the texture.
