What a great piece of art this egg is – located in Chicago. Looking at this picture again I also enjoy the lines in the pavement – spreading out from the bottom left corner of the picture. Again – Provia film.

The straw stands out II

The straw stands out II

This is part II of an earlier post.  Exploring simplicity.  Doing photography with the attitude of finding a beautiful frame by looking carefully and creatively around you where you are present in the moment – this is what I enjoy exploring.

Narrow view of the Grand Canyon

Narrow view of the Grand Canyon

Naturally we made a point to see the Grand Canyon on our road trip, north rim. It did not meet my expectations – probably because the place we where at did not offer the best possible view.

I found myself trying out a different kind of framing through the Autocord as looking at the canyon view through the Autocord viewfinder was not coming up with anything interesting.  At the viewpoint over the canyon, I noticed these two rocks so close together, yet so different, and the canyon in the distance between them.

There is much beauty in Yosemite.  I like the colors in this picture – the blue sky, gray mountains, green fields, dark river.  The Provia film delivers well.

If you have not taken a good road trip around the south west USA – I would strongly encourage you to do so – and do plan to have some time to hike.
