Icy Texture

1/24/11

Took a little stroll out back to the lake in my neighborhood to get away from my desk for a minute. Their was a trickle over the spillway but I couldn't get a good angle on it. That is actally what I wanted to get a picture of but it wasn't to be. I got a couple of these shots inspired by Ansel Adam's more abstract close ups. Not that I have an ounce of Adam's vision or technical skill but I can still be inspired by him even if I don't come close to reaching him.

SLACKER
No photo for the 23rd with no good reason. Actually I should have been inspired. I went to see a Sally Mann exhibit at the VFMA. I think the problem was I was inspired to go into the dark room and create something. The problem is I don't have a dark room anymore. What I really want to do is get some orthofilm and put it in my old Polaroid Landcam and take some pinhole shots. This has been on my mind for a while now... one day I will have the room.
The Sally Mann show was excellent. It had a lit of her "death" photos and a doc about the process of making the photos for this show as well as others. If you have the chance to see it I highly recommend it.
Now what to take pictures of today?
