I’m really late with this post. The last couple of posts have been late by a few hours but this one is pushing it to a whole new level. This is what I get when I decide to work from home. It throws me out of my daily rhythm and I tend to play catch up all day.
Yesterday I made a decision to stay in the office during lunch rather than fight the weather. My idea was to play with light and shadows on various objects around my office. I think it went fairly well and I had a few pictures I was happy with. There was even one or two that I would have considered for my 365 project. That all changed on the drive home…
Walking to the car I couldn’t help but be fascinated by the sky. There were dark clouds and a great orange hue highlighted in . I stopped numerous times to grab different images as the sun and clouds played hide -n- seek. Review the pictures on the computer I just knew one of them was going to be my project picture for the day.
This second was only about a mile from my house. I had to maneuver the car carefully to the side of the road so I could grab this picture. I have overcome my initial inhibition about pulling this car stop routine and don’t even stop to think about it anymore. When I see the picture, if there is a place to stop, I do!
This last image turned out much better than I anticipated. It is a four image panoramic view of the sunset over the Mohawk River. I didn’t think I should get out of the car considering the traffic going by me, so the four pictures where done hand held. I’m really happy with this one!
