A Week of Sun November 11 - 17, 2008
Tuesday, November 18, 2008
I was a little bummed that all of the leaves are brown now and falling off the trees. But with the leaves mostly gone I can see the amazing shapes in the branches of the trees. Especially in silhouette, they're striking.
I'm experimenting with new places. The gray days have caused me to experiment with other kinds of shots. I still miss shots because the sun sets so fast now. I found an incredible new location for sunsets not far from work, so hopefully I can catch a few beautiful sunsets in the next couple of weeks.
I also learned that it's not a good idea to run out into a corn field after the rain in heels. It's a good way to ruin a brand new pair of shoes. Note to self: Keep a pair of old tennis shoes in the trunk.

Photography will ruin all your clothes and shoes! Even at weddings when I'm a guest I still find myself rolling around on the floor in my fancy dress just to get a "for fun" shot.

Some very nice shots here. Mamacita's right: outdoor photography requires grubby clothes.

Mamacita: I now have an old pair of tennis shoes in my trunk. And the shoes survived after a good cleaning.
Chappy: I take a lot of shots on the way in and home from work so grubby clothes aren't an option, but maybe I should add an old coat to the trunk as well.
Venjanz: Does that mean I'm hired?

Glad to hear that the new shoes survived! Sunsets are so pretty, bet you will get some great shots.
