I have been working on a few pieces for my optometrist's office. As I looked through the images I have to offer, I asked myself the same question everyone does, "what makes my photography special?"
I think we can all learn from taking the time to look through our past and see where we have come from. After all, if you don't know where you have come from and where you are; you might just be going in circles... :-) Here are a few of my favorite older images...
Golden Gate bridge (1998):
Interestingly this was taken with a Kodak DC120 camera. It had a whopping 1.2 Mega pixels. I still have a print of this on my desk at work. It is a 5x7 and is a bit grainy but I still get comments on it.
A couple from Arches National Park (2000):
A rare lighting storm in San Jose (2003):
It was not raining where I was on my front porch. I got really lucky with this and a couple of other shots.
Castle Geyser, Yellowstone National Park (2007):
It's all about the light right! We had been to Geyser basin earlier but I wanted to go back in the evening when the light might be better. It was! You have to stay on the walkways there for your safety as well as to preserve the gysers themselves so your options are often limited.
Finally (2008)...
Looking back through these images I see a progression toward better images, but at the same time I see talent. As we all do I strive to be better each day. My Photography now is light years ahead of what it once. So where are you in your photography?
Until next time,
Light Cipher
