2022_CLondon52w8: Domestic

From the C.London website: Open for Interpretation

As I've reflected in this blog previously, watching our grandson is one of my greatest pleasures.  It is also one of my domestic responsibilities.  So with Presidents Day closing his child care, we were called into action on this holiday.  Unfortunately, the little guy was a bit under the weather so a trip to the pediatrician became part of the plan for the day.  After the visit, while Mimi was reporting back to our son, Pops was firing off a few photos in the waiting room.

This image is the first 2Fer of the year, fulfilling both challenges with a single photo.

C.London52w8 - Low Key 

From the C.London website: "As you may have guessed, Low Key photography is the opposite of last week’s prompt. In low key images, the tones are darker and shadows are more present overall. Low key photos may read mysterious, graphic, etc. For this week, manipulate the scene to create a low key photograph."

With a slight break in the weather, I wanted to explore my immediate neighborhood for a low key photo opportunity. I found this composition and had to react quickly when the sun and clouds presented an interesting reflection with lots of contrast. This was the best of the bunch.
