That's My World Tuesday: Same place a week later


This week I'm taking you on a photo walk the same place (Shelley Lake) I took you last week but these shots were taken this Sunday.

Funny how it turned out that both weeks were pretty cold and wet but ended up with a nice Sunday for walking.

This past week was my least favorite weather. It was raining and right around freezing but at least it stayed a degree or two above freezing except at night, so we didn't have ice storms.

It definitely motivates me to walk when the sun comes out and the weather improves.

The seagulls are continuing to act like a convention has been called for them to congregate.

They are incredibly noisy too.

I'm not seeing as many geese or ducks but that will shift in spring when the gulls leave for other nesting places and the geese and heron take over the lake.

The Weekend in Black and White: Being Chased


This photograph is slightly blurry because the goose started charging me while I took its picture. After I clicked the shot, I realized a small boy was chasing the goose and the goose ran straight at me to get away from the child. In spite of being slightly blurry, I like the shadows and the overall affect.

SkyWatch Friday: Layered


I like the way water can reflect layers which include the sky as well as trees and ground.

ABC Wednesday: C is for Crane

The first crane is creatively distorted by the UNC Hospital building.

The second crane is helping build the Cancer hospital at UNC. That hospital has since been completed.

All of the first three shots of cranes were taken in Chapel Hill, NC.

The next two shots of cranes were photographed at the North Carolina Museum of Art.

In case you haven't caught on I love to photograph cranes.

The rest of the cranes were shot in downtown Raleigh, North Carolina.

I think the next crane might even be cadmium yellow.

I like the clouds catching the crane.

The cranes below look like they are cat napping on the building.

I will conclude with one last crane shot because this post is crashing to an end.
