A Sky On Fire – Sunset There are evenings that the sky does incredible things. Not all evenings are this way, but some of them are. I’m always reminded of a painting when I see the sky “On Fire,” so with this image I put it through a process in Photoshop to add a bit to that painting affect. I haven’t been able to take as many pictures recently as I would like… However I do have a trip to Maine on the horizon that I am looking forward to, photographically especially. Have a great evening! Eldon
Alone In The World – Solitude – Photo The interesting thing about introverts (folks like myself ) is that even in the largest of crowds we can feel like we are alone. Some times it is a freeing thing to be able to experience. Some times it can keep you from doing really stupid things. Some times it can keep you from doing something you wish later you would have done. Some times it can be quite lonely. Some times one feels like a crowd. The truth is that I am not alone. You are not alone. We are not alone. Walk by yourself, but don’t walk alone....
Miniature Forrest – Photo Simplicity is beauty. At least in my point of view. This is the theme of a lot of my photography recently. Simplify till its almost ridiculous and then cut one or two more things out. I also like to see what the image looks like as a black and white conversion. So what do you think? Take care! Eldon
Black and White Spring Time – Bench – Photo There is a time when every person gets tired. It is that time that a bench like this, at the edge of a meadow full of flowers, comes in quite handy. I didn’t actually sit on this particular bench, but at times I find a bench in my mind and sit on on it for a few minutes, resting from all the noise and stuff around me. You should try it some time! Step into a black and white spring time of your mind. Find a bench and sit down. Relax… Have a great night folks, Eldon
Life Through a Looking Glass – Beach – Photo Good evening folks. It’s a bit after ten p.m. on a Saturday night. Tomorrow is my absolute favorite day of the week. And I’m already looking forward to next week and the weeks to come. Maybe you are too. What do you observe? What is on your horizon? If you can see it from here it might be worth while to start preparing for it now, before you actually get there. That seems to be what I’m finding to be good advice in my own life. Also there seems to be a voice in my mind saying, “He who brought you this far will be there for you in the future…” Have a great weekend everyone! Blessings, Eldon
Like Grass On A Beach – Grass – Photo Hey everyone! In case you haven’t noticed things have been quite quiet around here. The reasons are multiple and some are more complex than I want to get into here, so suffice to say my blog has taken a bit of a hit because of other stuff. At any rate, this past weekend I was in Virginia Beach with my brother and my cousin and we spent a bit of time on the beach. I did take my camera along and couldn’t help taking a few pictures. This is one of them. A lot of things that we do are small blips on the radar of life, like a blade of grass on a beach. But when you look at the life overall it is made up of all the little things… I hope you have a great evening!...
Good evening folks, Today’s picture is one I took a few weeks ago. We have an old Oliver 550 tractor sitting out near our Pick Your Own Strawberry patch. My nephew Dawson likes to sit on it and drive it around… lots of kids enjoy it. Seems like its a reminder of “the olden days…” This may be the same kind of tractor that was used to invent the Farming Game – which is said to have been invented from the seat of a tractor. Have a great evening,...
Unfurled Flag – Flag – Photo Good evening everyone. One thing I am fairly sure will happen with the posts that I do post here on the site. They will be a fair bit shorter than they have been in the past. Today I was in Roanoke making a tomato delivery for my dad. It was a rainy, cloudy morning and I crossed a bridge that had cool light poles and sweet flags. So I parked when I could and walked back to the bridge where I took a few pictures. This one is my current favorite. Thanks for stopping by, Eldon
