rlketcham.comThis isn’t what I had planned for a post today but the challenge was thrown down. My friend Mark K at JerseyStylePhotography saw a post over at Zack Arias blog about Get Off Your Arse or GOYA. So Mark challenged a few of us to get out today at lunch time and make a few images. Great idea until I noticed the pounding rain and wind. Anyway I got at least 2 for the GOYA challenge and a couple for another post I have planned for later this week. Glad you pushed me Mark, it was a good day to try out a couple of things with the G9 and a flash, if the weather cooperates there will be more this week.
f2.8 1/30 yeah it is dark this time of year
The above was taken in back of the shop by the old heating oil barrels and it is dark this time of year even at mid day. Below is the front yard by the fire pit and I liked the B&W conversion, and yeah I need to do yard work.
Ok not much but it really was wet and I have more for later this week.
Love ‘em both! Thanks for taking this on. It was fun, eh? (despite your brokeness…)
You may not think it’s much but at least you GOYA! Whether is rain or shine it’s well done, Ray!
Yard work? Looks like forest to me. I wouldn’t mind sitting in that chair, ponding over whether those trees are getting closer or if it’s just me.
Very nice b&w work, there. Go, GOYA!
My first thought about the top photo was: Wine keg. Very nice. Glad that you GOYA and went!
I like the top image (whatever it is) quite a bit, Ray
