New Project 52 for 2024

10/52 - The weeks come fast... and I need something to post for Project 52... which is a GOOD thing! Thank-you BratPix. Much appreciated. I had a doctor's appointment downtown yesterday... figured I'd better take the camera and find something to point it at. It's fun. This is an older building (1973)... I remember when it was built.

11/52: A week goes by quickly! This thread is great because BratPix makes me get out with the camera. And I have been getting out much more as a result. Very good! But this one is a back yard shot. It was an overcast windy day, and there were a couple of "wing foilers" out doing their thing. Grabbed the camera and went outside. They were quite a ways off-shore, so 400mm was barely enough.

I hope you did not catch a cold; the weather does not look very comfortable ;)

Portion of a contemporary stained-glass window designed by Véronique Joumard for Notre-Dame Cathedral in Bayeux. Prisms are used to project colored spots inside the cathedral. These prisms are set in mouth-blown, lightly bubbled antique glass using lead rods. This photo was taken from inside the transept. The exterior of the cathedral, seen through the window, takes on the appearance of a painting, with a clearly recognizable flying buttress in the foreground.

12/52: Here is another back yard shot... as I have been too busy with work and not quite "keeping up with the program" that BratPix initiated (and that I agreed to participate in). I will indeed get out and TRY to do some creative shooting (as BratPix has shown in the recent posts)... SOON. :)

When I photographed this mirror designed to ease traffic in a low-visibility area, I was too close and too low to see it from the front. Using the Keystone tool, I was able to give the surrounding hatched area its square shape, which distorted the reflected houses in an unusual way that amused me. But the strangest thing is this self-portrait at bottom right, which I am having a bit of trouble interpreting. The multicolored bag filled with bread that I was holding in my left hand at the same time as my camera has turned into an indescribable magma, and my right leg, well, let's not talk about that...
