This is my 2014 photo project. I am a Minnesota-based photographer. I have a preference in portraiture, and I also have of love of youth sports photography. I experiment in many other areas of photography. This Blog is about me trying different things. Much of my portrait work, sports photography, and some of the fine art prints I've done can be seen at www.photosfeaturingyou.com.

Day 189...After the Rain
AFTER THE RAIN
I really don't do macro photography. But how many times have I said throughout this project that the point is to stretch and learn. Today, I really wanted to try to get cool photos of the stormy skies, but from where I was, they just weren't that interesting. And the storm came and passed within an hour. I took my higher end camera in to have it cleaned yesterday, so I am working with my less expensive baby which doesn't have a long lens. When I drove by the lake, the loons were swimming by, and I wanted to shoot them but didn't feel like hopping in the canoe and I couldn't shoot them from the side of the pond because my lens doesn't scope that far.
So I looked around, and saw some pretty flowers, but I have done flowers more than is my preference. Then I noticed all the raindrops on everything. I got down near the ground and started macro shooting, and I was pretty pleased with most of the results. This one turned out to be my favorite and the longer I look at it, the more I like it.
