Popup LinkNow that's what camping is all about!

Popup LinkI love the accidental shots.


Camping at Malibu Beach

By TheFur written 6/18/06 9:12 PM, published 6/18/06 9:12 PM

Went with my family down to Malibu Beach State Park and camped with our small tent trailer. I took a few shots that I really liked and thought I would share.

My favorite is this Popup Linksunset shot

I also got this nice shot at the Popup Linkdog show

Here is a cool shot taken from the Popup Linkcar window

A cool picture of the Popup Linkmoon

And my wife and the show dog hanging out at the  Popup Linkcampsite


Weekend in Yosemite

Spent the weekend in Yosemite. What a challenging place to photograph!  The most amazing aspect of the park, besides the incredible beauty, is the scale, which seems virtually impossible to convey via a photograph.  It is also a challenge to take pictures that are not ordinary like Popup Linkthis one. I did make a few attempts at the  Popup Linksurreal. But the beauty was both big and  Popup Linksmall. In the end, you could go out of your Popup Linktree trying to capture it all. I think I need to get a polarizing filter.

Photos from Florida

Last week I went with my family to florida where we Popup Linkhung out for the week.

We went to Disney's Animal Kingdom where we saw some very cool animals such as this huge Popup Linkbat and a Popup Linktiger.

We also saw some cool Popup Linktrees and interesting Popup Linkflowers.

Finally at the end of the day, we had a nice Popup Linkhouse to stay in.


Crazy Lines

Unfortunately I missed the Architecture theme.  Here are a few shots that I took with that theme in mind

This last one doesn't really fit the archetecture theme, but I like the photo anyway.


Scotland

In South Western Scotland last spring my wife and I stayed near an ancient burial ground called a Popup LinkCairn. We also visited some other ancient stone  Popup Linkcircles, which were not used for burial purposes.  In fact, no one knows exactly what they were used for.  They make for some cool pictures though.  Here is one Popup Linkmore of the cairn that my wife took.  The fog was just incredible.

Winter in Boston

These two photos were actually taken last winter, in Boston.  I came across them recently and I liked them.  I hope you enjoy them

Opportunity Knocks

Usually, the dog is chasing the cat around.  Or the cat is chasing the dog around.  This is a rare moment of stillness. It is too bad about the focus, but there just wasn't enough light.  Otherwise, I think it is a pretty cool photo.

Dog

Here are two photos I like of my dog Popup LinkNimo.  Popup LinkNimo is short for Geronimo.  He has three legs.  My wife got him from an animal shelter in Boston when we lived there.  He supposedly jumped from a third story window and he was brought into the animal hospital/shelter by a neighbor with a shattered left front leg.  Hense the name. I drove across the country with him last summer, and he is just a wonderful companiion.

Ok, probably been done a hundred times, but I figure, why not one hundred and one? So here are some pretty pictures of fire.  Let me know if any sizzle for you!

Found Photography

The attached abstract image I found on a digital camera at the school where I worked last year.  I kept the image, because it is so striking.  I have no idea who took it or what it was supposed to be a picture of, if anything. It has not been photoshoped or altered in any way. Has anyone else found interesting images or taken interesting accidental shots?

Yes, it's a Table

By TheFur written 2/14/06 4:47 PM, published 2/14/06 4:47 PM

Somebody asked if the photo I posted yesterday was legs for a table, and if I would post a picture of the finished table.  Indeed they are, and here it is.  The table top is made from Plyboo - bamboo plywood.  Just a beautiful material.  I have made a few tables out of this stuff and the galvanized steel pipes.  They make a nice combination of industrial look and elegance.  A friend saw the dining room table I had made and wanted one for herself.

Here are two photos for the still life entry.  This is my first time posting, so go easy on me!  Seriously, I would love to get any comments people have.  I want to become a better photographer.
