Tough day on the photo front, really busy at work, and not much time to shoot. Had to get creative and go for some abstract shots.

Walking The Red Line (60/365)

Sunday, March 1, 2026

Auto-generated description: A shadow of a person holding a walking stick is cast on a red dirt path surrounded by dry grass.

Friends don’t let friends shoot in the harsh noon sun. Lots of pictures today and nothing really to work with. Hard to recover overblown highlights and true colors. That harsh, high-in-the-sky sun just washes everything out. Yet, we try! When that’s what you got, you use it to the best of your ability.

Nice hike in the red dirt.

Sub-Surface (58/365)

Friday, February 27, 2026

Auto-generated description: A close-up of a cross-section of asphalt pavement reveals a layer of compacted gravel and stone, with soil visible beneath.

Not super happy with this shot. The concept in my head was much better than the picture I got. I took about 12 shots trying to get the right angle and exposure.

I needed my main camera to shoot two exposures, one for above ground and one for below, and combine them. As you can see, the upper portion is over-exposed. There are limits with an iPhone and walking a dog!

Hope it’s a great day!

Go take some pictures!!

I’ve decided to stick with my current format and just post all the days' extra shots under the Name “Stray Pixels”, since they’re strays or extras from the daily shot. I will also add the category stray-pixels to the post so they are easier to find.

I’ve struggled with how to handle the days' other photos, making a whole new blog, or making stray pixels a separate post, but this seems to be the cleanest, easiest answer. All the photos are automatically sent to Flickr as well.

Auto-generated description: A bottle of sparkling mineral water labeled Aqua de Piedra stands on a table next to a glass with a slice of lime.

It may sound weird, but sparkling water (water with gas) varies greatly in taste, hardness, softness, and level of carbonation, so when you find one that stands out, it’s almost exciting! LOL

First time with this one. It’s outstanding. Plus, it looks even better with Bokeh in the background ; )

Wanted to get away for a few days, so a proper road trip was in order. My wife is a huge dinosaur fan and has always wanted to see the La Brea Tar Pits Museum. Long day of driving, but made it in time to check in and head out for some great Thai food. Museums tomorrow.

A very slow day for picture taking. The only shot I took today was going to TJ’s for some survival food as I sat at my desk all day. Only taking one picture sure makes the decision-making easier!

I’ll show you the shot I’d like to post below, but it’s a screenshot and doesn’t count in my little 365Pixels world (at least not yet, LOL)
