A picture a day


Nice photo. Interesting balance between grays on top and bottom, divided by almost black line. There is something here on the border between dream and longing.
 
 
Last Friday was the last day of walking home in day light this year,

A UFO!

In the meantime, I'm back to GIMP again. Tried Affinity over the weekend, but I don't think I'll bother trying to fix the image quality issues.

May we know that photogenic cutie's name?

No problem! I despise that orange, but the yellow by itself wouldn't be attractive either. I think it adds a necessary layer.

By the way, color isn't really my thing, I always try converting these images to black and white before posting. In this case, though, the colors attracted me and I decided to accept the image to be true to that.

Another one for the "waiting for the bus" series

Like!
For a few years now, I've been photographing the sky out of my work room whenever it looks interesting (and I like what I see). Great fun; not sure yet what I'll do with the images - they're accumulating in a folder. Haven't decided yet where to go with it (if anywhere at all).

Something else, but in a similar vein, you could say:

 
@koraks Thanks. Sometimes when I'm bored of the same old subjects I see every day, I like to point the lens up. You'll never get the same thing twice.

Here's one my Dad took today, it's a Ginkgo tree, they always give a wonderful yellow in autumn.

 
early morning run with a camera, my biathlon.

Both very nice.

From yesterday, a diptych. Isn't road construction out in front of where you live wonderful? Particularly when it sometimes runs through the night?
The self-portrait is a surprise bonus!

I know, right! We're having power grid upgrades in our neighborhood. They've been working on it through summer. Last year they re-did the road in front of the house. The year before that was the roundabout at the end of the street. I wonder what's up next. Looks like someone has made a hobby of breaking up the same stretch of road every year or so. No nightly adventures, fortunately. This summer they did start early some days though; between 5 and 6 am. For some reason, work started invariably by starting the excavator and then letting it run idle for 20 minutes.

 
@koraks That's a beauty.

We went out as the first snow of the season was starting.

 

Very good one! I also think that the colours work very well because the palette is limited to 4-5 dominant colors so they seem to blend nicely together,

Do you choose the colour of the dog's jacket based on how the foliage and other characteristics of the scene are likely to render photographically?
If so, good choice today!
