Photographing on a pumpkin patch is a great experience. You find all kinds of subjects.

Enjoy!

Create an image that says “Fall!” There are many ways to express the theme for this week. I went to a local pumpkin patch and photographed there. You may also go to a local park or do something totally different. As always, enjoy this exercise!

The idea of making a postcard is to ad clarifying text to you composition. I hope you enjoyed this exercise as much as I did.

Have a great week-end!

The image on the top is created from “Inspiration Point.” On the bottom from left to right: El Capitan. the Merced River and the dead Cedar tree in The Valley. Enjoy!

I photographed yesterday in San Francisco. One of my favorite place is the Dahlia Garden right outside the Conservatory of Flowers. Enjoy!

Bodie is a ghost-town close to Mono Lake in California. It is worth a visit anytime. Enjoy and let’s create more postcards.

Create a postcard this week. The size of my postcard is 1263X1641 @300PPI. Use this setting if you would like to have your postcard printed. For the web I reduced the size to 385X500 @72PPI. You may combine one, two, three or more image and text into your composition. Again, as always, have fun with this exercise!

This is a postcard that I produced for the Chamber of Commerce and it is available in the City of Chowchilla.

On my exercise walk I discovered this pipe. While I was setting up my tripod and camera several people walked by and they were wondering “what the heck” I was photographing. I told them that I try to look for things that we normally overlook like this pipe.

Enjoy and happy photographing!

The challenge for this week is to photograph images with circles in them. Use only full circles and as always: Have fun with this exercise!

A wagon week is an ideal for this exercise. I photographed this wheel last Saturday in Bodie, CA. There are more images from Bodie on our other blog. Go to www.photoblog.eye2eyephotostudio.com

This is another rescue cat. She was the busiest of all cats that I photographed, constantly moving and exploring. I love looking at her eyes and I wonder how much joy and how much suffering they have seen. Having seen and photographed mall these cats created in me a feeling compassion for them. When you see an ally cat don’t be mean to her, don’t kick her, her life is most likely rough enough. I am an image maker and I learned that the images I make also make me.

Have a great week-end!
