When I walk downtown, I pass a statue that always makes me pause. This statue stands in front of a hotel, and today I went inside to inquire. The name of the statue is "Miser". It's interesting cause when I see the statue, I see such a kind, helping person. Like so many things in life, it boils down to the perspective you choose to take. I zoomed in on the part that tends to catch my eye.
In a few days, I will post the full statue and you can see where "Miser" probably came from.
WOW...like a kid in a candy store. This past weekend, Glazer's Camera celebrated their 75th Anniversary. For two days, they blocked the street off for vendor booths, seminars, demonstrations, and discounts. I was in the market for a new lens, so I spent a lot of time at the Nikon booth.
I go to Glazer's often enough that we know each other by name. Kevin and Eddy are my go-to guys for camera equipment.
When I got home, I immediately grabbed the first thing in sight, and played with my new lens. My new lens allows for a shallower depth of field (more blurring of the foreground and background). Shown here is the blurring at it's most extreme. My photography will enjoy this added flexibility.
Today it is rainy, gray, and dreary in Seattle. I choose to see the day through "perspective" glasses of my choosing. I inspired my day by photographing my first flower. The day is always what YOU make it! My day is a vibrant orange. What is yours?
Why yes I did. We were there, he was already partially wet, so thinking out loud, I said "I wonder how it would look if you were walking out of the water." He paused, thought for a few moments...well...you can see his answer.
Thanks so much Adyceum.
