A trip to the park.

Stopped by Mammoth Cave NP to shoot a few frogs at the pond. There were no frogs wishing to take advantage of the free photo offer.
I had to make due with other subjects.




More Water.


Sometimes I stop, sometimes I don't.

This time I did.

Shanty Hollow, Again.

I will do this same shot this fall.

Well... If nothing else, it is interesting.





It was getting fairly dark, this is a 30 second shot. The foreground is illuminated by a security light from the parking lot, the background is lit by a big fusion reaction eight light-minutes or so away.

This isn't what I stopped to shoot, and I almost didn't shoot it. I was looking for ways to shoot the barn. My first thought when I noticed the basketball goal was 'wow, that would be stupid', then I thought, 'yes, that would be stupid'. So there you go.



And, just for the heck of it, a field. Nothing but a field (no barn).

Back again, dogwood season.

I said I'd come back in a few days. The dogwoods are great. This is, of course, Fairview Cemetery. Probably the best dogwood spot in Bowling Green.
No fancy tripods, polarizers or neutral density filters today - just a little B&W and LOTS of cropping.

My next idea for this location is to come back at night, maybe I won't get kicked out.

The dogwoods are in bloom, and I have time to kill.

Last fall, I had pretty good success in this cemetery on a foggy morning. I have planned on shooting here for years during the spring dogwood blooming season. I had some time to kill Friday, so I did (kill time here), then came back early Saturday morning for a little more. Like I said, I had time to kill, so I shot a lot of 30 second shots (10x ND filter), which fuzzes the trees, and streaks the clouds. If you can't dazzle them with good shots, then baffle them with funky shots.

Officially, the theme is dogwood blooms, but you can't tell by looking.

Friday afternoon:
A little heavy on the polarizer. (above)

30 Second Exposure









Yes, it hasn't been that long since I have been here - point taken. It is an interesting location, and I will be here a lot in varying conditions. All the dogwoods hadn't yet peaked, so I'll probably go back in a few days.

More Lost River

More lost river, although at this point, it's not so lost.

Another rainy day. My favorite time to shoot.

Foggy, Frosty Morning in St. Joseph Cemetery (Correction: Fariview Cemetery)

Ok, I knew it was going to be fairly chilly, and I dressed in several layers. But boy, were my feet and fingers coooooold.

Finally, no panos, well no, I just added one.
