Visual Diary

It was refreshing to be out on this beautiful autumn day.

Backgrounds are tricky.

They can make a subject stand out or distract from it.

Blue helps yellow stand out.

This is where I went swimming this morning.

The water was just right. A little cool as I entered, then warmed up.

This is what the sunset looked like last evening, facing east

(rather than west). However I had to adjust the exposure

after I took the shot to make it look as it did.

I was lucky to capture this bee today.

He landed on the rose as I was busily taking a photo of it.

Franz Kafka said "Anyone why keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old."

Make a photo of something beautiful today.

White puffy mushrooms growing on the lawn beneath the clothes line at my block of units.

Challenge: Practice storytelling today.

Look for 3 images that tell a story,

and make a set of photos that go together. ds84

This is what I do within 10 minutes of returning home from work.

I was surprised to see the patterns on the underside of my umbrella,

when I first bought it - a blue sky with white fluffy clouds.
