A gang of angles

July 28, 2011 Gary Wium Leave a comment

It’s approaching the one year mark for my blog and my T2i. I’m not obsessed with anniversaries, but, for fun, I thought I’d post a shot taken today of another angle on the G11 images I showed in my very first post back in August 2010.

Petaluma Bridge

Lens: Canon EF-S 15-85mm at 26mm. 1/160 second at F/11, ISO 200.
(Why so many f/11 shots? Because most of my commute shots are taken during the afternoon when the sun is high and bright–and, as every photographer worth their salt should know, f/11 is much sweeter than f/16 after 3:00 PM. ;^)

Shades on reflection

Sitting at a café twiddling my thumbs? No way. The beer was good and the conversation scintillating, but I liked the colors in the reflection on the table so I posed my shades and grabbed a few close-ups. This was the fave.

Old cypress

This small, old stand of cypress out in the middle of a field immediately caught my eye. I’m not sure I can explain why the scene drew me in, but the shot definitely conveys what attracted my imagination–metaphorically. I’m going to leave it at that.

Old county road

During yesterday’s drive we took several off the beaten track county roads. Most of them were in need of resurfacing, which, given the state of the economy, is not likely to happen any time soon.

Admiring the accoutrements

After rehearsal today, for R&R, we took a long drive out towards the coast. Along the way we stopped at the Union Hotel for some beer and a pizza. The bar was fairly empty, but the beer choices were good and the pizza was excellent! This guy was watching a baseball game. I was admiring his accoutrements.
