Portrait of J I walked into my favorite cafe this morning and just knew I wanted a portrait of this beautiful woman sitting at a cozy lamp working her laptop. After getting my almond latte, I sat down nearby. I wanted a candid, but asked her first so as not to bother her - J gave a gracious yes. 📷

Color photograph: A woman with glasses and her hair in a bun sits at a rustic wooden table in a coffee shop, typing on a laptop. A cappuccino, a smartphone, and a glowing lamp sit nearby, with a decorative burlap coffee sack hanging on the wall behind her.

Separate ways #color #photography #sunrise #seagull #loneman

Color photograph: A lone figure stands on a wooden pier at sunrise, silhouetted against a warm golden sky. A seagull soars overhead as the sun breaks through low clouds on the horizon.

This was just an experiment from the other day in panning with a slow shutter speed. This beach has an oceanfront casino with walls painted with colorful murals. Lots of early morning bikers ride through. Nikon Zf, 135mm lens, at 1/15 sec. #color #photography #ICM #motionblur #bike #bikerider

Color photograph: A cyclist wearing a pink jersey and white helmet rides past a turquoise and green mural at a beach casino. Motion blur from panning camera movement renders the rider and bicycle as streaks of color against the background.

For this shot of sea grape leaves, which I came upon on a beach side walkway, a little extra contrast emphasized the color, which is my favorite thing about these leaves, along with the cute roundish shape. #color #photography #nature #seagrape #leaves

A densely layered sea grape shrub photographed in high-contrast sunlight at a Florida beach. The large, round leaves display a vivid deep purple, magenta, red, orange, and green, with bright yellow-green veins tracing across each surface. Fallen dried leaves and rocky ground are visible below. The strong sunlight creates blown-out white highlights on several leaves, intensifying the effect.

These are just 4 extras from today's outing. I like them, but not enough to post them each separately. 😬😉 #photography #outtakes #streetphotography #rearcamera

Image 2 — A car's dashboard backup camera display shows a sun-washed street scene with palm trees and a cyclist, all bathed in a greenish tint. Green and red guide lines fan out across the road. The wide-angle lens and glare give the image a slightly distorted feel, as if the real world is being filtered through a machine's eye.

Image 4 — A close-up of what apears to be a wavy or textured glass panel outdoors, catching the reflections of nearby trees in soft greens and yellows. A metal bike rack sits in the lower left, sharp and real against the shifting colors behind the glass. The image plays with what is solid and what is just a reflection.

Today at the beach, I was mainly looking for design, geometry, pattern... so I liked the walkway here. Seeing this father/son out for a Father's Day fish was a nice bonus. #photography #color #fishing #pier #father-son #american $flags #fathersday #pattern

Color photograph: Two American flags fly from the railing of a wooden fishing pier on Father's Day, the ocean stretching out behind them. Their bold red and white stripes echo the repeating lines of the wooden boards and fence rails all around them. Bright sunlight throws long, crisscrossing shadows across the worn deck, turning the walkway into a pattern of light and dark. A man and a child head away from the camera toward the far end of the pier, carrying fishing rods, while other fishermen can be seen gathered in the distance under a covered shelter.

I noticed this iguana at the beach. And I was thinking that that plant is way too spiky for me, but almost sure he doesn't mind at all. The white background is just from the scene being heavily backlit, hence blown out. #photography #color #iguana #screwpine #spiky

Color photograph: A green iguana perches near the top of a spiky palm plant, partially camouflaged among the sharp, narrow leaves. The iguana's head and upper body are visible on the right side, with its distinctive teal eye and scaly gray-green skin contrasting against the bright green foliage. The background is white from heavy backlight.

One last silhouette from the other morning at the beach. #photography #color #silhouette #pensive #reflection #sunrise

Color photograph of a person in a tank top and shorts, seen in near-silhouette against backlit rippling water. Massive dark pier pilings frame the scene vertically, with a starburst of sunlight flaring between two of them on the left. The figure looks downward, head bowed, surrounded by reflections.

#blackandwhite #photography #ocean #standup #silhouette #streetphotography #sunrise #existential #man

Black and white photograph of a lone stand-up paddleboarder silhouetted against a brightly backlit ocean surface, paddle in hand, standing amid low breaking waves. The backlit water stretches in rippling bands of light and shadow from foreground to horizon, with a dark overcast sky above.

Beach silhouette Another scene from my jaunt to the beach this morning. As I drove up the little hill toward the beachfront parking lot, these silhouetted palms, lamps and signs impressed on me. #color #photography #silhouette #beach #palms #sunrise

Morning football toss. At the beach early this morning, and just felt and liked some of the little scenes. #photography #ocean #silhouette #morning #streetphotography

Distant silhouettes of several people swimming and wading in a calm sea, one with an arm raised mid-throw holding a ball, set against a vast pale blue-green sky and water with the horizon line near the center of the frame.

Construction Although not in perfect focus, these scene conveys (at least to me) the idea that there seems to be never-ending construction going on. It was shot one handed with a long lens on my Nikon Zf while driving. #color #photography #construction #sunset #crane

Silhouettes of construction cranes and palm trees set against a vivid golden sunset, with dark storm clouds rolling in across the sky.

A pot in the backyard patio. When I photographed this scene originally, it didn't work for me at all. But somehow, for some reason, it looks okay today. Maybe it won't tomorrow? 😏 #photography #color #flowerpot #purple

Color photograph: A potted plant with long, arching stems covered in small periwinkle-blue flowers and rounded green leaves, spilling over the sides of a whitish/pink ceramic pot. Shot in soft overcast light on a backyard patio, with green foliage blurred in the background.

During longer layovers, some in-airport street photography makes the wait go by in a flash. I only shoot if the subject is not bothered of course. This airport worker, in front of a mural of what might be his home turf, seemed very comfortable there. #blackandwhite #streetphotography #airport

Black and white photograph of a male airport worker in a reflective safety vest and baseball cap, leaning against a wall and talking on a phone. Behind him is a large digital display showing a stylized illustration of the New York City skyline at night, including the Statue of Liberty and recognizable skyscrapers. In the upper right corner of the display, a Delta Air Lines message reads "Thank You for Flying With Us." Silver crowd-control stanchions with retractable belts stand in the foreground. The setting is LaGuardia airport, usa.

The dog park was inviting me to enter, even though I don't own a dog. 😏 #color #photography #dogpark #sunset #entrance

Color photography: A wet stone pathway leads through the entrance of a dog park at sunset, flanked by well-cared for croton plants and framed by the arching trunks and canopy of two large trees. Beyond the path, palm trees and distant foliage are silhouetted against an evening sky of deep orange, gold, and purple, with clouds lit from below by the setting sun.

Almost nothing

A minimalist color seascape photograph showing a vast overcast sky in muted silver-gray tones above a very calm ocean. A faint horizontal streak of warm golden-white light catches the water near the horizon, which sits low in the lower quarter of the frame. The overall palette is cool and monochromatic, with the single warm light reflection serving as the sole focal point.

Blueness #color #photography #blue #sailboat #lake #calm #peaceful

A white sailboat with a yellow sail cover sits moored on the glassy, mirror-calm waters of Shelburne Bay, Vermont, its mast and hull reflected in the still blue water, with a low tree-lined shoreline and soft cloudy sky in the distance.

I think I was seeing things on this day at a nearby lake. #blackandwhite #photography #reflections #pond

A black and white photograph of a calm, shallow pond. Near the center of the frame, a curved and angular arrangement of fallen branches floats on the reflective surface, their dark forms mirrored in the water below. Scattered throughout the background and foreground, thin reeds and young aquatic plants emerge from the water, each casting a its reflection. The overall mood is quiet and contemplative, with the still water creating a backdrop against the dark organic shapes.

Probably posting this for my own good... want to slow the morning down if I can. #color #photography #sunrise #ocean

Color photograph: A somewhat moody sunrise viewed from the shoreline. The sun glows behind a bank of heavy clouds near the center of the frame, sending rays of light fanning outward and reflecting in a bright column across the dark, choppy water. A wave curls in the middle distance while the foreground shows shallow surf washing over wet sand. The overall palette is cool silver and slate grey, with patches of blue sky visible between the clouds.

At the park again #color #photography #purple #pink #tree #parkscene

A large tree in full bloom with pink and purple blossoms fills the frame, its dark trunk silhouetted against a soft-focus park road and wooden split-rail fence in the background. Green grass lines the foreground. The overcast light gives the scene a quiet quality.

Another ride home.

Black and white photograph of a low-key scene of a highway at night as it would look riding home late.

Just a scene from the corner of the living room today, while doing my computer work. #color #photography

Slightly high-key color photograph: A lush pothos in a hanging pot, long leafy vines draping all the way down past a sun hat on a white chair.

Thought I'd continue the sailboat theme with another one I shot in the same area of Shelburne Vermont at sunset. #color #photography #sailboat #sunset #flare

Color photograph: A sailboat in silhouette moves across the ocean near the horizon during a golden sunset. The low sun sits just above a band of clouds, casting a bright reflection across rippling water. Several lens flares appear in the sky above the boat.

I'm currently culling and moving many of my images to a more accessible storage location. So I'm more likely to post images I run into more often. This one: A regatta where the setting sun ended up backlighting the boats' colorful sails. #color #photography #sailboats #regatta #backlight

Color photograph of a few sailboats with colorful backlit sails due to a setting sun behind them.
