About This Blog
The purpose of this blog is partly a showcase for my skills, part experiment, and partly a way for me to get out and take more pictures. My original goal was to post 1 picture per day for (at least) 365 days. I accomplished this for 2 years and 3 months. I then decided that I was doing it to do it, rather than better my craft. I no feel obliged to post daily, but I often do. I hope you enjoy my creations and please leave commentsBlurb.com Advertisement

I find it so intriguing what color or it’s absence does to an image. Some images are improved in focus if the color is removed because it makes things simpler. Other images are brilliant because of all of the screaming colors or softened by light touches of color. I am always surprised at what an image in black and white shows me. This image shows me the light. The hole in the cloud. The rays. And everything else doesn’t matter as much, it is all stage dressing for the light. Usually sunsets are all about the hues of the clouds and the color tints given everything, but this is all about the light.
