Discarded Newspapers – Snapshot of the Day, no. 45

It was really windy this morning. So windy in fact, most of our papers from the dumpster blew out and into the street for a couple of blocks. It looked good, too. Trash everywhere. Great. But it also seemed to symbolize the newspaper industry’s demise in general. At least in print form. Gone with theContinue reading “Discarded Newspapers – Snapshot of the Day, no. 45”

Super Hero – Snapshot No. 44

Our Super Hero neighbor. He frequently sports a cape and wings for his shoes. Today it was the cape. This is what I saw when I walked into the entry hall. Although this is a lousy photo, I got some really good ones later on. He’s a great subject. While “helping” us later in theContinue reading “Super Hero – Snapshot No. 44”

Hydrangea Petals – Snapshot No. 43

I can’t seem to not photograph these hydrangea blooms. They fascinate me because they are constantly changing colors. . . even after being cut and stuck in a vase.

Mykonos Greek Grill – Snapshot No. 42

Ok. I must admit my first attempt at my Snapshot of the Day was ill-advised. I decided to abandon it as my One Image of the Day because it was taken in haste and really, REALLY bad. I’m trying to capture moments on the street like Vivian Maier did. I can honestly say I FAILEDContinue reading “Mykonos Greek Grill – Snapshot No. 42”

Raspberry Friands Mishap – Snapshot No. 41

My favorite blog, What Katie Ate, has great recipes! Plus a great new cookbook that I look at constantly for photo inspiration. This is one of the recipes I tried recently, Raspberry Friands. After looking all over town and the internet for almond meal, I’m not sure I did it correctly. They taste funny to me.Continue reading “Raspberry Friands Mishap – Snapshot No. 41”

Newsroom Table – Snapshot No. 40

I was very busy at work today; and it was too cold to stroll around downtown, so to the newsroom again for my project. This is a portion of our library. Those hangers in the back of the table used to be full of newspapers from around the country. Apparently not many of them areContinue reading “Newsroom Table – Snapshot No. 40”

Thunder Storms – Snapshot No. 39

It rained today. It was cold and very windy. This was taken from one of the windows at work. I kind of liked the blurry feel of the water on the windows.

Rotten Tomato – Snapshot No. 37

We worked on my old house today and began to run out of light. When we got home, I shot this really quickly. Seems to have worked out.

Scooter Games – Snapshot No. 36

My out-of-town friend and I spent the day together again today and found ourselves in this great toy store. This little girl was switching from a pogo stick and this scooter. She bounced and flew through the store for quite a while.

Coming to Work – Snapshot No. 35

As usual, I only had a few minutes today to find my one “snapshot of the day.” And because my rule is I only get one shot at whatever I decide to take a photo of, it makes my few minutes seem even shorter. However, the goal of this project is to make me lessContinue reading “Coming to Work – Snapshot No. 35”
