Street Lamp 05
18. May 2012 by Friedhelm.
I photographed this street lamp in downtown Merced. I like how the trees frame the subject.
Enjoy and have a great week-end!

I thought this might be a little bit different. The shadow of this lamp looks like the shadow of an inside desk lamp.
Enjoy and keep on photographing!

I could have photographed this lamp just by itself but I decided to include parts of the blooming bush. In addition I put the street lamp into the upper right corner. Both the blooming bush and positioning into the upper right corner adds to the appeal of the image.
Enjoy and keep on photographing!

I photographed this lamp and sign at the Mexican Restaurant in San Juan Bautista, a great place to eat and relax. This is a pretty balanced image meaning it gives the viewer the feeling of stability and maybe trust.
Enjoy and keep on photographing!

The exercise for the week is “Street Lamps.” You will find great and unique outside lamps in downtown areas and older neighborhoods. Go and have fun with this exercise!
I discovered a lot of great lamps in Carmel, CA, like this one. It was outside a store for inside decorations. I loved the reflection in the window.
Enjoy and find some great images!

Mud 03

The water inside the pie pan cooked out rather quickly. I turned the stove off and let it cool down a little bit. It looked like a moon landscape was forming. I changed the image into a black and white photo to bring out the structure better.
Enjoy and keep on photographing!

Mud 02

If you have ever visited Yellowstone National Park you will never forget the impressions of the “mud-pots.” I tried to create something similar by simply putting soil from my yard and water into a pie pan and heat it up. When it started to cook I used my 180mm macro lens and a fill in flash to shoot several images.
Enjoy and keep on creating interesting images!

The exercise for the Chowchilla Photo Club is “mud” for this month. I thought I could join this effort and come up with a few interesting images.
When I saw the mud I was looking for a stick and I put it into the ground. I thought I would call this image “stick in the mud!”
Enjoy and come up with some great ideas!
