When you get the shot!

My grandson Arai

does not like when i make his pictures black and white, he thinks it makes him look old.

This was at my daughters house and he was surprised that he  captured a shot of her dog,  Dash.

Iron Maiden

I don’t know why but I call these high tension poles “Iron Maidens”.

Do you have a name for them?

When the Bough Breaks

Well not actual the bough but a pipe in my back yard. No major disaster issue will get fixed in the spring when the ground is not frozen.

Love the art the water created on the fence.

Wordless Wednesday in Black and White

Not only the young

With the invention of the internet and mobile phones that are like mini computers most of our you spend their free time with their heads down looking at their particular device (myself included).  Well this is not just for the young or young at heart.

My father who will be 75 in about 10 days is beginning to be like that as well.  He is learning Facebook and has mastered texting.

While sitting on the beach watching the sunrise I was able to sneak this picture.

From the back…

Another flower from my Balcony Oasis.  I LOVE black and white photography but it is something that I am not very good at.  The only way for me to get is to actively work on getting better.

Here are a couple of images converted to black and white using SnapSeed.
