Day 31 - Photograph Texture

We don't have to look far to see texture.
It is all around us.

To photograph texture on a dark stormy day requires use of ambient light, or off camera flash.

I chose ambient light.






Can you guess what this is?

Day 23 - Photograph Squares

I went looking for squares today. I knew, as a fall back, I could always resort to the bathroom tiles, but I really wanted something just a little bit more interesting.

So the search commenced.

I saw plenty of rectangles, and almost squares - then I stumbled across this image. Now - I know they don't look square in the image, but they were equal sided.

And some very impressive art to boot.

Day Eighteen: Photograph Converging Lines

Another day at work thinking about converging lines.
Left just after sunrise, returned home well after moonrise.

What can depict converging lines, inside, at night.

I got creative, but my dog Bella had to be in on it.
