Bridge

Bridge

Bridge A small contribution to Becky’s square image challenge, specifically the “Geometry of Bridges”. Normally I shy away from square images. They don’t fit well into the themes of my sites. My posts start with a “featured image” nearly full screen width. The viewer can’t see all of a square image and has to scroll…… Continue reading Bridge

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

First Daffodil

Daffodil

A sign of spring at last! Our daffodils are late this season. It took this blossom a whole day to open and it is not yet quite there. And then the rain came to dampen the spirit. At least with the raindrops on the blossom these photos fit the Cosmic Photo Prompt of “water, water,…… Continue reading First Daffodil

Winter Bloom

It is wintery cold outside. The low last night was below 14F (-10 C). Nothing is blooming around the house. The daffodils haven’t made their appearance. Although back in 2017 this is how far they had come up: Back then, just a few days earlier things looked like this: However, today inside, the Christmas cactus…… Continue reading Winter Bloom

If at first …

… well then, keep trying Circumstances had me spending many days in and around Emory University Hospital recently. I only had my iPhone with me, no “big” camera, but that was not a serious limitation. It provides a wide view angle and good resolution, the photos are quite acceptable. The pedestrian bridge over Clifton Road…… Continue reading If at first …

On This Date

On this date, January 12, 2014 It used to be that Google Photos prepared “reminiscences”, putting together a little album of images uploaded on a day years prior. Those albums could be shared. The sharing does not seem to work any more, hence this post. It was a cold, wintry, but bright day at McDaniel…… Continue reading On This Date

Monday Window – 2

Monday Window – Looking Up Sometimes when you look up at windows they seem to take on a different character. They seem to be looking out, far above, unconcerned with the goings-on below them. Then again, sometimes you can see in and just barely imagine what is happening there. .:. © 2016 Ludwig Keck

Thursday Doors – 2

Door

A Simple Door For this Thursday Doors post my contribution is a simple door. Just about as simple as one can get. A simple glass double door. No adornments, just stark, rectangular panels. Even the door “handles” are simple rectangular metal bars. But surrounding the door are impressive, large windows reaching up to form a…… Continue reading Thursday Doors – 2

Monday Window – 1

Window on River Street So this is number one in my new series “Monday Window”. I took the advise of a respected sage “never start at the beginning”. This then is a window along River Street in Savannah, Georgia. The two photos here at first glance seem to show different windows. Yet it is one…… Continue reading Monday Window – 1
