Coming and Going
My intent the other night was to capture the clouds just after sunset. I setup at the side of the road to capture a few images. Not as exciting as I hoped. And then the first car passed my location. Ding! Idea forming. It was late, it took longer than normal.
I had to wait quite a few minutes to get cars going in both directions. I didn’t think my luck would allow two cars going opposite directions at the same time so I decided to capture one each way and blend the two images in PS Elements. Another few attempts and I finally settled in on a 13 second exposure (two of them). I needed that amount of time to get the complete light trails along the length of road in the frame.
I had fun, and isn’t that what it is suppose to be about?

Quiet Spot
Due to my new passion with photography I have been spending a lot more time in the state park just down the road from me. I love to go exploring after dinner and it never fails that I come home with some great images. One spot I always stop at is this overlook above the beach.
I find there is a nice tranquility that envelopes me as I stand on the edge of overlook. The sunset is always in view, creating interesting light play with the trees. The sound of water lapping against the shore can lull me to sleep in an instant. I thought this image captured my quiet spot nicely…

Purple Field
Late in the day yesterday the wind finally subsided enough for me to venture out with the camera. I thought about going a few times over the weekend (actually, the next post is about movement) but being primarily a landscape/detail kind of guy I didn’t see where I would come home with anything useful. I was also consumed by Dan Brown’s latest novel which contributed to my lethargy.
I pass this field across from the town park numerous times a day. These purple flowers have held my attention lately so I made a concerted effort to stop and capture a few images. This is the best I came away with. I think there is still a better image in that field. I’ll have to give it a go again soon.
