Details that you wouldnt normally see

Have you ever found yourself walking around when suddenly you notice something, but not just any something, something you wouldnt normally notice?
This somethig is something that the longer you gaze upon it the more interesting it becomes. I have found myself doing that very thing.


This is what i found myself noticing. These elecrtical poles have something about them that in analitical trems can be described as just wear and tear. But that is not what i see. I see something more, i see its past and present.


Each pole is like a persons hands. No human hands are the same and you can tell a lot of the person by looking at thier hands. In the same style, you can tell a lot of the history of not only the pole but of its surroundings. As human hands age and mature to build a charecter that describes the person, the poles location and age build a certin charecter that describes the neighborhood.


Whenever you get a chance to just walk around, pay attention to the details that describe your neighborhood, and by doing so you can learn about its history.
Try it and share what you have found.

Rock Formations

There are many ways to express yourself through art. One way that I found to express something more than just a pretty picture is by using nature itself. People have used rock formations to to show something more that what you see.
These rock formations that i have composed have a simple, yet meaningful story behind it.

The top rock formation shows the balance that we can obtain even though we might not have all equal proportions.


The second rock formation on the left has an optical illusion feel to it. Even though I used rocks, and parts of plants, it seems like if it is looking somewhere. The plant seeds act as eyes and the leafs and twigs ans hair to for a head. This is where the right side of the brain comes to function, the creative side.


The last rock formation has feelings. why do I say that? Because, do to the composition, there is a feeling of hope and wonder. The head rock and the eyes show a gaze look towards the sky with that feeling, a feeling of hope and wonder on what will be.

Rock formations are very simple to assemble, but to make an art form out of it, it take more than just putting it together. You need to show an expression, you need to feel something when you see it, and you need your viewers to be able to feel what you feel when they see it.

Make your own rock formation and share what you have created.

Sunset with Powerlines

There is something about this composition that captured my eye...I don't know if its the power lines that fade into the horizon, or the way the sun sets with a golden glow due to the clouds around it without disturbing the color of the sky. One thing i can say is that this is one of my favorite sunset photographs. I like the way the sun in the background makes the foreground into a silhouette. Also, i am fond of the way the human eyes move around the photograph due to its composition; the power lines make your eyes go from left to right, and the clouds on the right make you go out then around and back to where you started. If you notice any other interesting view of the photograph don't hesitate to comment.

As I wait for my bus to come...

Have you ever waited for the bus to come and its seems like forever?
A good solution to make the time pass by faster is to take a pictures of what you see...

My First Blog

Hello Bloggers,

Being my first blog don't really know what to blog about right at this moment. But i can say that as a photographer, this blog spot will be showing some of my best Photographs i have taken and be posting new photographs every chance i get.

I will be posting my photos that i take with my SONY Alpha 350 DSLR and my Canon EOS Rebel SLR. I enjoy the high quality shoots i capture with my Sony
A350, being a 14.2 mp camera, its performance is outstanding, for the type of camera. Even though digital cameras are now everywhere you go, my Canon EOS Rebel -film camera- is still being used to its fullest.

I wish you enjoyed my first blog, and hope you enjoy the many more blogs to come.
