cute kid red earth puppy doorway ... in other words Randomness


Yes, it's time for my random post of the week. It wasn't initially going to be so random by I had some technical difficulties. The post was initially going to be about the alien beauty of the Terra Cotta Clay Hills. Unfortunately, clay as it were, is just not very photogenic. I'm not sure if was the lighting, or the lens or just my new hiking boots, but something wasn't working. Out of about 150 shots I think I got 5 or 6 that I liked and only 2 that I'm happy enough with to post.


Next there was my idea of doorways. I like doors, they can be interesting. They generally lead somewhere, or act as a barrier to prevent something from somewhere from getting in. You see there has been this door sitting on the ground in a field behind my work. I thought it was interesting. Where did it lead? (Nowhere, obviously) Why was it there? (Cuz someone dumped it). I figured it could spark an interesting project...but I couldn't find any cool doors in time. So I had a lil fun with this one and now I'm laying it to rest so to speak. If anyone knows of any other interesting doors, be they industrial or country, rusty or shiny, I'm still fascinated, and would like to take some shots.


Next are ironically my favorite two shots. Ironic because they were the only ones I didn't go looking for. Just snapping some fun pictures of the Long and McQuade Brampton Family Picnic when these shots happened to pop up. There were several shots that I kinda liked, but these two just popped out from the croud. I love the mischievous look in Logan's eyes, the tilt of his head and wild sunscreen hair. It just works.


The puppy is my friend Cassandra's Teacup Cujo named (appropriately I think) "Shiva". The pup loves me now, but we had a rocky start...my ankles will never be the same ;)


Well guys, have a great week, and we'll catch ya on the flip side.
