Men at Work

Grey skies and nothing really happening except accidentally dropping my iPhone 3G while walking the dog. Thankfully only the glass was broken. With gasoline prices as high as €1.69/liter you don't want to drive such V8 powered cars, don't you?

Lawn dozers Thought I'd get today's entry in early. Here's a fraction of my lawn mowing herd. You'd look at the fore- and mid- ground and think they're doing a great job...well I find it curious that I work hard for a few days to mow about 5 acres of our property and that's where they...

2012 started with stormy weather. While the days are still predominantly dark there are thankfully the first signs of a bit more light.

At the mercy: small and significant This was the very last shot on my stroll this morning to secure safeties. There's a lot that can be improved about this image - esp. from a composition and processing perspective - but I thought as it stood it sort of still says exactly what I was thinking...

Today felt like a day where I had to tie up the loose ends. Dealing with pain and disappointment.

Portrait of two constant companions Not much opportunity in the way of photo making today. Was overcast and a little cool so we hit the paddocks for some "hard yakka". Half they day hitting weeds (that will be the subject of another SiJ image) and the other half mowing, and mowing...

Bit of a struggle for my day five. I'd taken my safeties in the morning, and thought they'd do the trick. Busy, then, for the rest of the day with driving to town and then the city to get supplies for humans and horses. With dying light I thought I'd process the day's images and found the...

My son turned 11 today. Totally excited and happy with his presents.

Street photography is my passion, its what I do. Walking by Downtown Miami, I spotted a previous subject of mine(interested search my flickr stream for a GRDIII Portrait titled Precious Moments) and the light was just perfect.

Hands are always interesting. I was on the couch and my brother was next to me all relaxed and I just loved the contrast.

Playing with lights in the evening.

Photography is all around us, we just have to look deeper.

The modern ICE train from Germany passes by at 120 km/h, while the traveler is reminded of an exhibition of the Jewish history. Today was an in-between day. Storm hit the Netherlands the day before and another storm is predicted for the next day. It was a quick stroll today.

Stormy today so any photo strolls were short lived without straying too far from the sanctuary of cover. Like many others have mentioned in the past, I toed-and-froed on which image I wanted to upload to the SIJ gallery. I liked the sense of movement on both images but this one just seemed...

My first post, its part of an upcoming article on street photography realizations. Cheers, Jorge

Today the weather turned nasty with gale force winds and lots of rain. I got cold and wet on my commute back home.

Had the farrier over today doing the horses hooves. He was a little perplexed as to why I'd want to take some photos of him at work, but he was compliant enough....for a time. You have to understand it was hot today - about 34 degrees celsius (about 93F for those still using the old money). So I...

In my hometown, a typical commuter place, I consider the local train station to be best place for street photography. Anywhere else people are just to aware of your presence. The station has a very sober architecture and while it is usually a quite busy place, it is also a location that...

Well I'd certainly not intended another safe garden shot, but I didn't take my own advice and neglected the early morning safety. So by photography time the clouds came over and it bucketed down with rain. Still pelting down on my iron roof. Love that sound :smile: So focused here on the...

This is actually the last photograph of my first photograph a day project I started on January 2 in 2011. The first roll of 365 photographs. It was January 1 early morning that I read stillshunter's post with the challenge of "Shoot safeties!" I took this photograph of my son during...

OK it's not the most inspiring image...it was actually one of my safeties from the morning. But what I do like - and no it's not about showing off the PL25's sharpness or bokeh ;) - is the play of the sidelight on and in the budding rose. Desaturated the colour a little as I'm not a fan of...
