Week 32 GPlus Project 52

Week 30 S Curve
On the road
I've been a little lax lately on posting my Google Plus 52 project here on the blog. The photos haven't been all that inspiring, but I suppose that's not the point of this project. So, I'll try to catch up in this post.

Week 30's theme was "S Curve" which could be interpreted many ways. I recycled an earlier shot of a road curve. I've always liked this shot because unknown to me at the time I captured a car going through the curve. My attention was elsewhere at the time.
Week 31 was silhouette. The shot I used was one that I hadn't initially intended for this theme, but it worked out better than my other ones. It's more of a partial silhouette, but it still works.

And last week's theme was animals. There were plenty of cats, a fair number of dogs, but no slugs. At least until my entry came in. Is a slug an animal? This guy was by far the largest banana slug I've ever seen, which I admit isn't really saying much.

Week 32 Animals
Slow but slimy
And now I'm caught up. Tune in next week for textures.

My Dad

Dad, in his throne A week ago my dad died, succumbing to a fast and aggressive cancer located in his neck diagnosed in May. He was 78 and passed peacefully at home. Dad wasn't a talker, a trait jokingly (honestly?) said to be passed on to other Harley men, which made growing up with him trying. He wasn't the hands on teacher type, I think he just expected me to know how to do things or how to behave. But, when you misbehaved you could be assured of him letting you know about it.

Monday, as just about everyone knows, Apple gave a peek at a couple of its updates in the operating systems arena, both mobile and desktop. Most people knew what to expect in the first half, OS X Lion is coming in July. And although I knew what most of the updated stuff was going to be I still found myself wanting to update right then and there. I mean why wouldn't you? It's $30, and I don't have to run down to a store to get it. Actually, I couldn't if I wanted to, but that's another story. But it's the second half of the presentation that was more, interesting, if you're an iOS person.

Forcing a Photo

Image
A decent, but VERY processed shot **Disclaimer: Today's post is kind of long.** I recently decided to try my hand at a competition I saw on Google+, the +10000 PHOTOGRAPHERS 1st Contest - Natural Water Photos  being put on by  +10000 PHOTOGRAPHERS . There's no tangible prize except notoriety on what some think is a ghost town  social network. Shortly after having made the decision to enter this, and deciding I wanted to use a new photo for the competition,  Digital Photography School published this post  about dynamic landscapes by +Todd Sisson . The post itself is a teaser for his newly published book Living Landscapes .  Featured in the article was this image which instantly caught my eye.
