Bang

08.07.2019 by Peter J. Crowley // Leave a Comment

A short very short walk this morning. The plan color images to convert to B+W but in one block and much bending 50 images, 30 minutes later hobbling home with a smile on my face BANG.

Thirty feet along I was in Monet’s Garden at Giverny.

There were more steps taken in the garden.

An edge of sharpness cuts the soft palette.

Still at Patty’s, I did walk further but this is today’s Bangs.

Poppy’s, Purple and I see an image of ……….summer peace.

Maybe convert to B+W tomorrow today Bang! Color

The Morning Light 7:10 August 4th 2019

08.04.2019 by Peter J. Crowley // 1 Comment

I rarely make the morning light but today out the door 7:05 coffee in my vest pocket, the air crisp with the warning of HOT to come soon.

Just out the door I’m Glad for Patty’s garden
The Purple Poppy a block or so into my walk.
This is the light I miss but not today 7:26 I am charged by the light.

What camera? For the camera is what makes the image great. D-3100 kit lens. It is the archer not the arrow Chaz told me in the 70’s or today.

Peace pjc

More light more life.

A Short Walk 7/24/19 3:30 to 4:00

07.24.2019 by Peter J. Crowley // 4 Comments

Today a tight calf made me wonder how far my stroll would be, a very short walk indeed worth ever step.

I look at this fence often today back light softened by leafs. Bending for one, two images review. Pain it will be a short walk confirmed.

Looking up love it dizzy. Maybe around the corner. Breath deeply once twice onward to another glimpse of the light .

A knot plays in the sun shadowed by leafs and a thin cloud cover. Bending ya this is the far end of my walk. Adjustments to contrast ISO again the fence beckons.


The Fence a playmate and teacher today focal points and DOF how low can the shutter speed go? Today 1/25 of a second bending and holding my breath. Touch the top of the fence steady, still deep breath. Home slowly sit down a drink.

It may seem a simple subject but to me far more. Light creating motion made still in my image that then implies the motion, the light dances becomes an emotion. Simplicity is the hardest concept to grasp.

Peace is also simple just not as profitable.
