When I see your photos I've often thought, "She must live in a special place where she can find such interesting subjects." But I realize that is probably not true. You capture ordinary things that catch your eye and reveal your perception. Amazing. I've been trying to carry my camera along with me just in case I spot something interesting. However I do not have your ability to see the ordinary in an intesting way.
Christine, the key is indeed to have your camera in your pocket all the time, and to be looking for things to photograph. If you're on the lookout, it's surprising what you can see, even on the most ordinary street.
I've been doing daily art for a long time, and everything since 2010 is documented in my other blog. This year it's painting. Click on the photo to check it out.

About me
I make abstract art -- usually with a needle but sometimes with a pen, brush or camera, scissors and glue, pliers and wirecutters, whatever is there. I have a husband, two sons, seven sewing machines, a big messy studio and lots of other people's art. Life is good!

So "Setting Sun" is the lovely image you were telling me about. The light on the building is really amazing.
ReplyDeleteOf course I am sort of partial to "Christmas Tree". You know my love of bridges and towers.
