When composing a scene in my camera I always look for interesting “patterns.” When I capture some interesting “colors” as well it’s a plus. Here are two examples…the first made inside, the second outside…on a building wall. Why the bike wheels were put on this wall I haven’t a clue. Art I guess.

Tables
I set out on a photo walk last week in downtown Roanoke, Virginia with no specific plan in mind, but as I walked the city streets I began to see “tables” and each had it’s own specific character. Here are three examples of those I saw…the best of the lot.
Lounge area in the Hotel Roanoke.
Metal tables in the food court inside the City Market building.
Sidewalk cafe ready for customers.
Half Moon
One nice thing about the recent change in time to daylight savings is that when I go on my morning walk the sun is not as far up as it was before the time change. Thus, last week on my walk I saw this half moon, and since I had decided to take one of my cameras with me that day, I got this shot. Nothing special, but it was neat to be able to still see the bright moon while the sun was rising.
Something a bit different
There are times when I get totally weird in terms of photographic subjects…mainly because when I see something…anything really…which I think looks neat…I grab whichever camera is closest to me and take a shot. This is one such subject. Following breakfast one day, after putting my cereal bowl in the kitchen sink (bowl earlier having been filled to the brim with Frosted Mini-Wheats) I noticed the contrast in colors on top of the bright white color of the sink itself. Water droplets on the rubber mat in the bottom made it even more interesting…to me. Being able to do this sort of stuff is why I love photography. It allows me to capture what I see visually, and it makes absolutely no difference if what I saw is a bit weird.
