Solids or Stripes?

Student Center
SUNY Polytechnic Institute

Last night as I waited for my daughter in the Student Center I listened as various groups of students entertained themselves in the game room. I was amazed at what is available for free at the Student Center. There are three pool tables, air hockey, ping pong and a few video games. After her test, as we were walking out of the building, I noticed the game room was empty and although I only had my phone with me I wanted to stop for a picture.

We ended up playing some ping pong before I worked my way over to one of the pool tables. I quickly setup the table and launched the cue ball into the arrangement. I’m not the greatest pool player but it allowed me to grab this image with the phone. What was more fun though was playing ping pong with my daughter. I’m going to have to drag her back there for a rematch… 🙂

Cinderella Castle
Magic Kingdom, Walt Disney World

This morning I return to a previously posted image. One that was actually captured with my old Sony point & shoot on a family vacation prior to me becoming interested (obsessed) with photography. I enjoyed the color version of this image with Cinderella Castle shrouded in early morning fog but I think this monochrome redo turned out even better. You can view the original on this post from last year… Photo Magic 2013.

Backyard Creek

Having to go to work does have a dampening affect on my photography time. Luckily I managed to grab a few images yesterday as I played in the creek behind the house. For now you may have to suffer through a few more slow water, long exposure, snow on the rocks images until I can get back out when there is light.
