Took some ‘arty’ photos yesterday and today.  Here are a few to look at:

A very rusted bike.  In the full shot, you can see how it has left rust stains on the concrete!

I really hope no one is riding this scary beast.   The chains/cables are the least rusted things here.

Just a sunflower.

I also tried some black and white photos.  This was done on the camera to make sure the shots worked ok.  Photographing in color and changing to black and white may of worked, but it is a lot easier this way.

A lone light pole against a scary looking sky.  I didn’t expect this shot to work so well.  The photo you see is not cropped, just resized for uploading.

Just a weed in from of some railroad tracks.

Finally, some perspective:

I read an interesting opinion in the Tribune today, it said we are having September 11th weather.  Other than the horrible events, the weather that week was just wonderful, just like this week.  Only this time, we have the stock market tanking and goodness knows how many banks are going to fail.   So, just take a walk and enjoy the weather.  We will make it through.
