Daily Picture #2



I really love all of these pictures I'll be posting, so I feel like I really shouldn't ever start off a post saying "I really like this one". I'll try not to.

I took this in Boston at Fenway Park while on a tour of the stadium. The tour was so much fun. I've always seen Fenway on tv all my life since I used to play baseball and my dad and I are big sports fans so it was incredible to actually be there walking around the stadium that's full of history.

This shot stands out for me because of all the colors. The red rail contrasts very nicely with the vibrant green field. I was walking by and originally wanted to take this shot closer without the rail, but then as I stepped back I realized how neat it would look. I'm glad I looked twice since this turned out so nice.

Daily Picture #1

Patriotism
This picture is what really got me thinking about taking photography seriously. It's still really high on my all time favorites. We were in Boston this summer and I was in charge of the camera. I didn't really know what I was doing sine I hadn't done any reading or had any training on how to take good pictures. Most of them turned out great. I was really happy and this is what got me started. Enjoy!

Daily Picture

Starting today I'm going to try to post one picture a day from my personal photography collection. I'll be working through this album on flickr, so go ahead and spoil the surprise if you'd like

Excuses and Direction

So I basically picked up a who cares anymore mind set as I've let the blog decompose for the past 4 months. I'm not sure what type of content I'm going to be posting now since I'm pretty busy these days. Maybe some more personal posts. We'll see. I have some new hobbies which I'll touch on later, and I make new videos of these activities each week normally. I'm thinking with a little commentary they could work. As always, I'm on Ytmnd checking things out there but to be quite honest the site's kinda died in the past months. Content sucks and no one is using it anymore. I'm pretty big into photography these days, so I think I'll do an every other day picture pick.
All this is just rambling thoughts. If you have any ideas suggestions or comments feel free to leave them.

Explanation

This is my response to a comment on my last post from August last year...

The reason why I haven't posted in a while:

"College started and I got a girlfriend. I also felt that no one read it because comments were non-existent. After I took some time off no one really seemed to notice so it just kept getting worse. I'll post occasionally I guess. It's a bad thing that I took so much time off. "

So I'm slowly going to be starting things back up. More to come tomorrow or later tonight.
