This is pre D700 The weather is starting to warm up so I took the opportunity this past weekend to move around some. I found this dilapidated structure near to some old train tracks. Definitely a location that I will be revisiting – looks like a nice spot for some interesting ‘story shots’. TIA for [...]

DP97: Left behind
Posted in Still Life, Urban Images, tagged cup, Red, wood on September 29, 2010 | 8 Comments »
Found this on a walk through the parking garage at work. You can find some interesting stuff when you look around. Like I mentioned before, I’m looking for stories in my images. This one, I can’t help but think how easily we discard stuff, or even people, who served our purpose for a time. The [...]
DP95: Locked out or locked in?
Posted in Still Life, Urban Images, tagged gate, lock, rust on September 26, 2010 | 9 Comments »
This is my second locked gate image. This one I like because I am trying to actively create stories with my images rather than just take a picture and have it end there. I want to be able to spark discussion with my images. Hopefully I am making some progress in that direction. TIA for [...]
DP92: A notice board by any other name
Posted in Still Life, Urban Images, tagged notice board on September 21, 2010 | 4 Comments »
Found this “notice board” in DC , near to the GW University campus. I never saw one like it and felt it was a novel idea. It was certainly efficient in terms of use of space. I think the processing makes it look like some sort of weird alien contraption. Kinda reminds me of the [...]
DP91: Staircase to……

This was taken in Baltimore outside of Mercy Hospital. I say that because I need to give some context to the mood of the image……lonely, thoughtful? Hospitals could evoke emotions that run the gamut. TIA for your comments.

Took this picture at a street fair in Baltimore. It is a bit over-processed, but I was trying to make sure that the graffiti on the wall showed up. TIA for your comments.
DP87: Reading & waiting
Posted in People, Urban Images, tagged old lady, reading, waiting on September 15, 2010 | 6 Comments »
I am catching up on some older images I never uploaded since I started this project. I am taking the opportunity to learn more about enhancing my images with software. I like how comfortable she is…not in a hurry. She’s waiting for bus and using that time to catch up on her reading. Must have [...]
DP82: Back on track
Posted in Landscape, Uncategorized, Urban Images, tagged tracks, train on September 8, 2010 | 2 Comments »
This picture is actually from a couple of days ago. I was thinking about the little speed bump I ran across last week. Tonight I went to church and the preacher talked about how easy it is to get off track. What he reminded us of though is that no matter how far off track [...]

I see this wrecker everyday on my way to work. I finally took a camera to it…..:) This is my continuing attempts at doing a halfway decent HDR. TIA for your comments.

I’ve never actually seen one of these before. I wonder of it still works. TIA for your comments.
