Misc

Leica D-Lux 4 pics taken this week. I'm always looking for interesting things that occur naturally to photograph. Sometimes it is people, places or inanimate objects. Here are some miscellaneous subjects taken during my daily excursions.  9/04/2010 Had to add a few more pics from Saturday morning taken on a leafy back road.  

This leaf is naturally framed by light filtering through the trees.

Even though it is still summer this leaf is already sporting its autumn colors.

Straight over the top, looking straight down on the leaf highlighted by the stem casting its shadow across the leaf. Subtle color change is a surefire indicator of fall being just around the corner.

Stuck - a leaf blown in the wind gets caught in the bark of a redwood tree. Nice contrast in color and texture and no this photo was not staged.

Looking up - A old stone gate post with what is left of a light post as the light is filtered through the trees. Converted to black and white with Silver Efex Pro.

Spokes - What is left of this old wooden wagon wheel now posing as a garden ornament.

Rest - Ten year old German Shepherd takes a rest and waits patiently while I take a few more pictures.

Contrast - strong contrast of light, dark and structure in this close up of a stone bridge. Converted to black and white with Silver Efex Pro.
