Still driving through Chamblee We are not finished yet with our drive-by photography tour of Chamblee, but we are on our way back. Here we are on Peachtree Boulevard, no longer on Peachtree Road. Don’t let that confuse you. In the Atlanta area there are dozens, if not hundreds, or streets bearing the peachtree name.…… Continue reading Monday Window – 240923

Continuing through Chamblee A bit more of that new construction and on to another building. Chamblee Chamblee Chamblee Here a little look “behind the curtain”. “Drive-by photography” presents a lot of challenges. It is hard to see just what is coming up. Signs along the streets are often unavoidable. When photographing buildings, as I was…… Continue reading Monday Window – 240916

More from our trip through Chamblee Continuing on with our trip through a neighbor town, here are two more photos of mew apartment buildings under construction. Here we see some fancier balconies and a more colorful facade.
Light and Shadow
Light and shadows are fundamental building blocks of photography. Light is the essence of photography, without it, there would be no image. The quality, direction, and intensity of light can drastically alter the appearance of a photograph. Shadows are powerful storytellers. Shadows can reveal shapes, hide the irrelevant, create abstract patterns, bring out textures, even…… Continue reading Light and Shadow

Driving through Chamblee Our neighboring town Chamblee is having quite a revival with much new construction. We drove through and I practiced a bit of “drive-by photography” from the back seat. For this week here are two photos. Still have to process most of the rest. In the photo above you can see a new…… Continue reading Monday Window – 240902

Windows, Balconies, Dormers and more Riding home from an appointment my attention was drawn to the business building with its dormers, balconies and windows. Even a little turret with windows. Note the Juliet balcony on the right. There was another attraction. See that tall “tree” in the left background. You can recognize it readily as…… Continue reading Monday Window – 240826
Sunrise
“Sunrise in the Rockies” For this week, the topic presented by The Cosmic Photo Challenge is “Morning Light”. Well, that is not easy for me to do. Getting up early is a challenge and getting somewhere scenic even more so. I allowed myself to do some dreaming and thought back to some early mornings in…… Continue reading Sunrise

The Destination We took a break from our bus tour of long ago and I never shared the destination. Today I will end the suspense. The tour took us to Turner Field, then the home of the Atlanta Braves baseball team. The team has since moved to a new place and the one here is…… Continue reading Monday Window – 240819

Big pine outside the window Some four decades ago it was a nice tree just next to the newly built house. Then it just kept growing until it became a hazard, dropping dead branches on the house. It had to be removed. Some of you may have already seen the image below. When my eyes…… Continue reading Monday Window – 240812

Windows with Juliet Balconies We have been on that bus tour for weeks, so I figure it is time to take a little break. Here are some windows with Juliet balconies. Actually, I think all of them are fake. I looked at one from the inside and saw no way for opening the window. But…… Continue reading Monday Window – 240805

As we continue our bus tour from back in 2013, we come by the historic Artmore Hotel. The bus was rolling at a good clip and I got just three shots. We were too close to get the whole front in. Normally that is not a problem, there is always Microsoft Image Composite Editor that…… Continue reading Monday Window – 240729

Rolling past our capitol When shooting out a bus window it is not easy getting the best angle on a subject. My solution is to just keep shooting, one of the photos is bound to be acceptable. Georgia State Capitol Unfortunately there isn’t really a good one, all are plagued by reflections and the views…… Continue reading Monday Window – 240722
Passages and Pathways
The Cosmic Photo Challenge often has intriguing themes, but Mondays are often too busy for me to participate. It’s Tuesday now and my OneDrive showed me an old memory that fits the topic. So I decided to take a quick look and see what else I already posted and what might be fun to show.…… Continue reading Passages and Pathways

Car windows and more We continue our bus trip this week, rolling through Atlanta. One nice thing about photographing out bus windows, you don’t need to worry about traffic. Photos taking while crossing through intersections are fun. You see traffic, but also much more. Here we see buildings – and their windows. This is after…… Continue reading Monday Window – 02
