Frozen lake Whetzel

Shot frozen lake Whetzel during my visit to the park last evening.

There is a bonus shot here – another shot of lake Whetzel from last fall season.

Lake Whetzel in fall season

Here is a shot of lake Whetzel with it’s fall glory – shot on October 15, 2010

Waiting…

Shot this at a park near home as I was waiting for my daughter to get back from her chess club meet. It was about 5pm and the Sun was just about to set.

I really like the shadow of the tree upon the melting snow/ice, warmth and glow of the evening sunlight in this sunset shot.

Math time

Shot this as my daughter was polishing her critical thinking math skills this evening.

Another foodie shot…

There is something about food that I like to capture…may be it’s such a docile subject which doesn’t cringe or frown 😉

I was thinking about it on this line last week. My wife is a good cook and there is always something cooking, so how about I shoot her food for my blog. It makes me happy that I got a shot for the day and should make her happy that her food made it to the blog (besides feeding us).

It’s a win win situation, right?

Anyway, shot this using window lighting and used a foam board with aluminum foil stuck on it to direct the light on hard spots.

One of these days I need to pony up enough cash to buy continuous lighting,  so that I am not totally relying on free window lighting. Nothing wrong with natural window lighting (that I always like), it’s just that I don’t have to make my shoot before Mr. Sun goes down.

Another day…

When you’re uninspired and bored shoot an egg or eggs… 😉

Holes

Spotted these holes on our ice/snow covered backyard this evening.

Upon close observation, they turned out to be caused by a furry friend (read that as rabbit) in our backyard who has done his/her business 😉

Church and Sunset

Remember this Church shot from Oct 2010.

We happened to be in that neighborhood and shot this as the Sun was descending down.

I really like the tree branches in the foreground. Although it seems a bit cluttered, I think it adds a nice “mood” effect to this shot.

Home Remedy

I am feeling under the weather today and had to drink my concoction made of apple cider vinegar and honey.

May be it’s just about to time to get into exercise routine and ward off sickness 😉

Snow & Cherry

Shot this on a chilly evening.

As I was looking for mounds or such to shoot snow, what all I could find was snow on a flat surface.

Then I thought may be I should add some contrasting subject in this composition to bring in some interest. I did find a snow cone but rather found it flat for this composition. So I rummaged through our pantry and found a jar of sugar laden maraschino cherries that have not seen the daylight for a while 😉

So that’s how I ended up putting the maraschino cherry to use for this shoot.

Then I found it to be flat when I downloaded the picture to my desktop. So had to add a tad bit of edge burn to make it look better.

Have a great weekend folks!
