Photo Assignment: Weekend 11/17/07

This is the image for which I had the highest hopes. It was difficult to reach and I spent quite a bit of time just keeping the bike upright. When I finally got everything organized, I had to shoot blind with the camera slightly below ground level in a depression. This is the best of the shotgun approach, and a worthy image, but the windmill is growing out of the bike. Aargh!

 
And, of course, this is the safest image and the most technically sound, but it's just plain boring.

 
I'm not happy with the position of the blades, especially in relation to each other. Also, there's a third windmill's blade peeking in the left margin.

Your first is my favorite.
And what you see as an error is actually another triangle!

Bonus points ; )



I saw this at Gallery Night in Alpine Friday. How many triangles do you see?

When I took this shot I saw three obvious triangles. Later the 4th jumped out at me.

Last week I went on a 'bacon run' to the Corralitos Market. Today I got to enjoy it. Honey cured bacon and fresh eggs from our neighbor's hens down the road.

My poor submission of many small triangles in the dry grass and one triangular stone.

I didn't think I would post this week, and then it hit me...

This is a great example of a "fill flash". Great shot for photography class discussion: what's good, what could be improved upon?
 
Nice interpretation, Roy. Hard to say which is better--both perspectives have merit.
 
Triangles

Kentucky's version of the PA Dutch Hex sign.

Saw a lot of these today, just bright colors with geometric shapes on a large sheet of plywood nailed to a barn. This one just SE of Sandy Hook, KY on SR 7.

I didn't like this assignment!!! Everytime I rode by a house or barn, all I saw were the many triangles of the roof line!!!

It was great riding, and if you are ever in the E KY area, SR 32 from Morehead, KY to Sandy Hook, KY, and then SR 7 down to US 460, and just about any road in this area are really nice sweeper riding.
