Something's Brewing

Grayslake, IL

The composition of the black chairs and table legs against the sidewalk and wall struck me as an interesting abstract.

Wauconda

52Frames - Week 36 - Triangular Composition

Photowalk at the Wauconda Farmers Market.  The water tower peeking over the buildings and framed by the wires caught my attention for this week's challenge.  An accidental bonus was the guy walking his dog down the sidewalk being completely hidden by the power pole while his dog is not.

Along the Singel

52Frames - Week 20 - High Key

EC: SOOC

Walking along a narrow sidewalk by a canal in Amsterdam's "9 Streets" district, this colored section caught my eye in contrast with my wife's white shoes and black slacks. Due to crowds, I didn't have a lot of time to play with settings. On the 3rd exposure compensation attempt, I struck a balance between the rich color on the bricks and a blown out version.

Not the greatest of high key shots, but the intent was there and it keeps the streak alive.

Taking a page out of the @aarondigruccio playbook.

While on a walk today, in preparation for the new GR IIIx, I set my 28-60mm zoom to 40mm to get a feel for the focal length.
