52 Pictures of 2011 Recap

Week 52 of 2011 - Looking to the Future

My New Years Photography Resolutions:
- Actually read the photography books I have bought in the past
- Improve my photography (and buy more gear!)
- Do not wait until the last day to take the weekly pic

Week 51 of 2011 - Happy Holidays

There's an app for that, too.
I down loaded my Christmas tree to my iPhone for this year.

Just not into it at all this year.

Happy Holidays to all that are into it!
(No, that's not my actual tree. Are you kidding me?!)

Week 50 of 2011 - What Is It?

It's green and metal and old.
I removed the well known name off the top.

(The U.S. penny is there only to show size.)

Week 48 of 2011 - Self Portrait

It's me.

Week 47 of 2011 - Waiting

Thanksgiving Day.
On my way to lasagna dinner - save the turkeys!

People waiting for Best Buy to open up.

Week 46 of 2011 - Mainly One Color

Many Oberon during the summer of 2011.

Week 45 of 2011 - Processed Image (Before & After)

SO many things you can do with post processing software. I snapped a boring shot of the bamboo in the corner of my dining room and made it fantastic! If I do say so myself.

Week 44 of 2011 - Food

The last of the food from the garden.

Week 43 of 2011 - Macro

Mmm... wine.

Week 42 of 2011 - Words

A little graffiti in my hood. Some sort of suburban Banksy.

Week 41 of 2011 - Abstract

What could it be?

Week 40 of 2011 - Landscape

Rules: only minor human intrusion into the scene will be accepted.

There's a boat house at the shoreline to the right of center so that's my minor human intrusion.


This same landscape was posted 2 years ago as
"More autumn color."

Week 39 of 2011 - Book or Movie

I got more use out of last week's pumpkin for this week's theme! Thank-you Trader Joe! Below is the inspiration.

Week 38 of 2011 - Low Key

It's officially autumn here in the northern hemisphere.

Low key creating a chiaroscuro effect characterized by strong contrasts between light and dark, 

usually bold contrasts affecting a whole composition.

Remember high key?

Week 37 of 2011 - Street Photography

Putting up the Christmas lights JUST a bit early.

Week 36 of 2011 - Bokeh (the blur)

A busy bee.

Week 35 of 2011 - Stairs

These are the stairs that lead to week 24.

Week 34 of 2011 - Old and New

Old and new lawn edgers. Did my father really edge with this thing? Do I really edge with the modern thing? (It's been on my to-do list now for a couple of years.)
