Here is a tree at my parents that always seems to be looking at you. All I can say is take it at face value ;) Pop Quiz: What direction does this face face?

Day 205/365 - Home Town

Here is a shot overlooking my home town where I grew up into the current city I live in. Off in the distance you can see UMass Medical School. But pay attention to the light coming down from the clouds. I thought that w…

Day 204/365 - Slide

Here is a picture of my kid's slide on their swing set in the back yard. Not much of a subject, but this shot was just about the angle.

Day 203/365 - iPhone Lens Flare

Some photographers would frown on the use of lens flare in a photo. I think the effect of lens flare is cool. So to all you photographers that don't like it (insert raspberry sound here) ;)

Day 202/365 - Goodbye ReplayTV, Hello Tivo

In ten days, our old digital video recorders will be out of service because the company, ReplayTV, told us they are discontinuing the channel guide which makes it pretty much worthless without it. As of July 31, 2011 Re…

Day 201/365 - What Are These?

I was going through my various pictures that I have recently taken, and I came across this one. I can't remember what these are called. Can you help me? The first person that answers this will get the satisfaction of he…

Day 200/365 - Dragon Fly

Here is my first attempt at photographing an insect. I have to admit, it's not an easy task. Learning how to accomplish this should be fun. Look for more in future posts.

Day 199/365 - Pond at Watson Park

Here is a photo of Watson Park Pond on a beautiful sunny day. I tried to focus mainly on the reflection of the sky and trees in the rippling water.

Day 195/365 - Take A Gander At This

I was at Watson Park in Marlborough MA today during my lunch break to try to capture some wildlife. This was the only one around and he was on the other side of the pond. Luckily I had my 300mm lens with me.

Day 192/365 - Bridge Over Pond

Today I went on a hike at Moore State Park in Paxton MA hoping to find some areas to capture. I found a few. Here is a bridge over the pond. If you look closely you will see a guy reading a book. This park is a great pl…

Day 191/365 - Clouds Are Like Snowflakes

Clouds are neat to photograph, because they're like snowflakes. No two are alike, but are much easier to capture while they're airborne.
