Ripples

Today, Mother and I visited the Conservatory of Flowers and the de Young Museum. I wanted to take some abstract shots for my photo class. I was not inspired about abstracts but think I might be able to try the “mysterious” assignment instead.

Adobe Creek

I have been shooting a series at Baylands for my photo class. I decided to show the marshes under different lighting conditions. I will be posting that sequence soon. This is Adobe creek that runs along the edge of the marshes. I had to climb around a locked gate to get this vantage point. Of course, it is easier to go down the embankment rather than back up!

Today, I wanted to stop and take a shot of the Baylands marshes. The plan was to park the car and take a quick snap before the rain started. Well….The wind picked up and started whipping the rain. The umbrella for protecting the lens from the rain collapsed and Mother was not happy.

Went to Petaluma for the first time on a photo trip for my photo class. It is a wonderful town. This was a taken in a shop where Mother was buying out their jewelry selection.

Another from the bottle display. I think I must of manually focused and just missed it again. However, I like the blurring effect.

Last nite, went out to get a nite shot of the fountain at the local shopping center. After getting setup, the lights turned off so wandered around to find something else. This is a display of bottles in the window of our local Marshalls store.

Another from the shopping center. This is a vacant space planted with wildflowers. Another image for my color class.

Well, just when I thought that I could not make another grungy flower. Here is one with the geranium from the previous post.

This was taken at the gardening section of our local Target store. These were small potted geraniums lit by the golden hour light. Another image for my color image class.
