Another of my many abstracts from the Berkeley Sailing Club.
Month: March 2006
Coyote Creek #3
Another from our aborted hike along Coyote Creek, cut short by a sudden rainstorm.
Coyote Creek #2
I put this one in the surreal category. Funny that I was stuck next to a freeway when these beautiful rainbows appeared. Somehow the shed and the telephone poles add to the mystery feel. The blurring is because it was raining hard.
Cho-Cho
My interpretation of this one is probably going to very hard for someone else to see so here goes. This reminds me of our fat little dog, Cho-Cho. When we watch tv in the family room, Cho-Cho likes to lay in the kitchen with her head hanging over the step. She peers through her tangle of hair with what we call her laser-beams (actually she is older has bad cataract in one eye). Behind her head rises her overly large rump. If you cannot see it, you are probably the vast majority. Hopefully, you can appreciate it as an abstract.
Sailing Club #3
Another detail shot from the Sailing Club. I think this one was from the underside of a boat sitting like a lawn decoration at the entrance.
Sailing Club #2
This is a small detail of a wooden boat that is being worked on. After walking around the Saling Club, I can really understand why people say boats are so much work!
Sailing Club
Today, Aphra and I went to the Berkeley Sailing club to take abstract shots of the ship hulls that are being worked on in drydock (?). We were inspired after hearing about the recent photo expedition led by Klaus Lange. For me, I felt a little visually overloaded but it is fun to keep trying my hands at abstract images.
Photo Friday – Technology
For all my high tech equipment, I always need another outlet.
Golden Light and Rainbows
This week has been a long trying week. First, I have been feeling bad and my laptop was dying. Fortunately, I feel better today and Chip resurrected the laptop. Looks like I picked up a nasty trojan horse that slipped past my anti-virus software.
After dinner on Friday evening, I noticed the beautiful light and dramatic skies. I convinced Chip that it would not rain on us. So we stopped and strolled along Coyote Creek trail. Sure enough, a gorgeous complete rainbow appeared right when it started raining on us.
So, what does a photographer do when they have golden light, dramatic skies, and rainbows? Click continue reading to see…
Maguire Creek
I have not felt up to going out recently so I dug into the archives from earlier this week. This is the not-so-successful adventure into Maguire Creek but it is the best that I have at the moment. Maybe, tomorrow my energy and photo-mojo will return.
