In the Shop – ITS02
Squared – SQ55

I had such a good time the other day exploring the shop where I work during lunch I thought the bits and pieces I find would make a good project. I’m going to go with In the Shop as the name of this series. At least I know I will have less excuses for using the camera during lunch. 🙂

In the Yard – ITY05

My brilliant plan to walk around the yard and neighborhood yesterday didn’t not turn out too well. I do not like being cold! It was a beautiful sunny day but the wind and colder temps had me running back to the house before much exploring was accomplished. Moving to warming climate will not get here soon enough.

The long shadows of late afternoon prompted me to capture this shadow portrait. The blue tones in the snow and warm sunset light in the trees had me experimenting with some split toning for this B&W image. I could have left it as the color version but I was in the mood to play. I added some yellow tone to the highlights and blue to the shadows. Still need to play more with this style but the learning is part of the fun.
