dedmanshootn > pigeon taking flight
06/08/08

you get this today because i had a (even the docs don't know exactly what it is but its at least an order of magnitude worse than a migraine)headache and also had a problem with my feet so i couldn't wear shoes or even my sandals. during the late afternoon sun i limped barefoot down the stairs knowing i could probably at least get one of the ubiquitous pigeons from my stoop. not a fancy subject or shot but at least i got it here. it is a very great pleasure to participate in this daily community and i thank you all
dedmanshootn > self-portrait in front of the fireplace, fairhaven library
06/06/08

one of the reasons, besides the wonderful staff, that the fairhaven library is one of my favorite places to go in town. i manually preset the focus on the chair then set the camera on my bag on a table and shot with available light - which is why the light is two colors as there's lovely long windows behind me. for those of you who liked the dark colors of yesterdays dp i reshot more of the whole bed which you can see - and there's pics from inside, including a bigger view of the area in this shot, (and ouside) the library too -   http://dedmanshootn.smugmug.com/gallery/4855371_JgWrE#308101796_y8W58

i don't know for sure what this is but the man mowing the yard told me its a sycamore tree. the leaves literally came out of the bud with the sunshine today. i was fascinated by the fine hairs in both the leaves and blossoms. i wish a had an actual macro lens though probably wouldn't have done any better as my tripod was holding down the fort at home while i walked to do some errands

had a few minutes before the bus came and saw these lovely tulips nearby. i've enjoyed the 'impressionist watercolor' effect several of you have used in 'post' (as you call it) lately. since the closest i have to post is my coat tree i decided to see if i could emulate it by messing with settings and focus in the strong direct light available. i didn't get the effect i was hoping for in the time available but i do kinda like this one
