Weekly Photo Projects, Week 28

Week 28: Closure
Closing out the day
This was a last minute pick. With the theme of Closure for the +Project 52 B&W group I was out of ideas. I had some road closure signs, and some closed doors, but I didn't like any of them. So while I was processing another group of shots I began thinking maybe a sunset shot, that closes out the day, could be used. I don't normally think of sunset shots in black and white because it's the colors of a sunset that makes a shot interesting. But the clouds, the silhouette, and the sun just dipping behind the head seemed to work for me. I'll post the color version in the near future.

Week 28: Animals
Standing Tall
You would think with a theme like animals I could have come up with something better than this for +Weekly Photo Project 2013. Sadly, no. I even got turned down by a dog owner. It seems when I'm not looking to photograph an animal they're all over, but the minute I need one they vanish.

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.
