2012 Photo Challenge: Week 5

Five weeks into the new year and this project. This week I found I kept putting off taking photos until it was too late and I didn’t have time/energy to make it come out like I wanted. Note to self, that doesn’t work as well. I also thought of a few different types of photographs I’d like to play with in the future that center on lighting like the black and white lamp below. Can I just saw how pleasantly surprised I was by how that one came out?

I don’t usually do a lot of post-processing on my photos, but the clouds didn’t pop like I wanted and the mandolin needed something, anything to see if I could salvage it at that hour. I also figured out the time on my camera was off by an hour, so that’s fixed. I have also been playing with more manual settings, so finding the nice shot that works for me is getting harder. I have to take a few more in order to make sure I get it too.

What you see below are links to my flickr set for the photos I’ll use for this challenge. Click on any photo below to go to flickr and then you can navigate through the set with the “Previous” and “Next” arrows at the top.
