On The Level

 

Yesterday Morning We went to Lowes and got a couple of things to finish up some of the projects at home. One of the things we purchased was a level/tape measure set which the little boy just feel in love with. On the way home he was checking to see if the car was level.

This also ended up being a nice object to practice depth of field on.

Good Morning Sunshine

 


The other day I was walking to the train station and saw the beautiful colors in the sunrise. I happened to have my camera with me and took a few shots. 20 minutes later it was all overcast and grey. It was a quick lesson photography is all about timing.
