Bugs and Bees - Caught in a Photo

If you're not an insect person, then this isn't the post for you. However, if you love to see things on a smaller scale, perhaps through a macro lens, bugs and bees can be very captivating subjects. If you can catch one that remains still enough to sit for a portrait!

Car Logos

If we don't automatically recognize a car by its lines, we do know the logos. These symbols that identify and define the kinds of cars we see intrigues me. I love how the ordinary logo becomes something new in the light of the outdoors, catching reflections, or in dappled shade, sometimes looking shiny and new, other times showing years of road wear proudly.

Here are a few I particularly like:

XK 140

Blue Jag

Maserati

Audi Rings

Mini Cooper

What logos do you like? Let me know, and I'll see if I can photograph them to include here.

Enjoy! R

Black & White is Beautiful

Ever the classic, a photo in black and white holds a story of its own. It has the power to transport the viewer deeper into the realm of imagination.

The Color Red

I find that color really draws me. It tugs at my attention and won't let go, and at times it creates a physical reaction that is almost energizing.

Today's focus is on the color red:


RED II





LIFE IS A BOWL OF RASPBERRIES





RED TULIP II






LIL RED





IT'S ALL RED




Get your red on.

Stalking the Audi R8

 

There is nothing like the sleek lines of the Audi R8, and this little beauty often gets its own pedestal at major car shows. Here are some shots I took of a hot red model posing at the Seattle Auto Show~

Birds of a Feather

I've been enjoying the variety of birds that visit this area, many of them appearing in my yard. Others, like the heron and eagle, I saw during time at beaches and estuaries~

A Few Good Old Cars

Something I really enjoy is visiting the various car shows. Here are a few favorite images from some local shows, and from the Seattle Auto Show in Seattle. These are photos of older cars I enjoyed capturing~




 

The Language of Sky - Some Nighttime Images

Color and texture are a huge draw for me. Here are a few sunset and nighttime sky images I took recently:




 

I particularly love moon shots, but I'll save more of those for another post~
