Front and Center

As I focused on the railing, the background started to fuzz up. If I focused on the background it would have been a nice garden of flowers behind the intricate design of the railing but I thought the railing looked cooler so I focus on it instead.

Up Close and Far Away

Through the tree and to the clouds is my picture Up Close and Far Away. Outside in my backyard, I spotted the clouds peeking out from behind the tree. The blue sky behind the tree makes the tree and picture look even better.

Flowing in the Wind
I was walking by this flag and the wind kicked up, and the flag started to flow in the wind. I started with a low shutter speed then I realized a faster speed looks nicer. So here you have it "Flowing in the Wind."

The Only Star in the Sky
In middle of the city the stars sometime stop glowing leaving only the moon left in the sky. Somehow I managed to change my camera to darken the edges giving it a more nighttime feel.

Friday Night Lights, Literally
While visiting my friends school, during a high school football game, I caught sight of the lights shining down on the playing field. I noticed the angles and took some pictures. It came out almost like a search light breaking through the darkness of night.

Cannonball
During a little swimming fun time, my partner wanted to do a cannonball. Since I had my camera right next to me, I just had to take pictures of this. The shutter opened and closed just at the same time the splash started to form and rise into the air.

A Flash of White Rain
I during little rain storm, the rain started to drip in one area. I focused my camera in that area and held down the button. Even after that the rain drop still was faster than my camera's shutter speed.

Downtown's on the Horizon
Driving to a shop I saw the humongous buildings of downtown. The buildings look like monsters compared to the tiny storefront on the small street that we were driving on. They look like skyscrapers, both literally and physically! 

Partly Cloudy with a Chance of Tree's

During a stoplight, I looked out my window and saw the trees covering the partly cloudy sky. I then thought of the trees invading the sky for some reason which somehow led to the movie 'Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs' which somehow led back to this leaving me to call it Partly Cloudy with a Chance of Tree's.

Fire in the Skies

Still on the trend of yesterday's post, the sun was barely peaking through some clouds, leaving some of the clouds red some dark gray. Then it almost looks like the tree is almost trying to touch the red hot clouds.

Dark Clouds, Light Wood
Toward the end of the day, with the clouds looking like they were about to overflow with rain. I turned on my flash and as expected, it didn't reach the clouds but it did hit the wood illuminating it and making it look like the sun was hitting the wood but not the clouds.

A Look Into Rain
While going on with my rain theme, I looked out my window and saw nothing but rain. Usually you can see all the way to the street way out in the distance, but in this picture you can hardly see it.

Rain Drop
While a during a sudden storm, I focused on the ground and captured rain drop just after it hit the ground. It created this cool funnel like hole.

Heavy Rain, in Slow-mo
During a heavy rain shower, I looked out the window and saw the rain falling harder than ever. I took a few pictures and as the rain hit the road it almost looked like it was going up not down.

Rain and Trees, Mixed
in the background of this picture there is rain while in the forefront of the picture there are tree branches. I timed and captured the picture with just enough so that the rain droplets were frozen and you could still see them.

A Flower, Upclose and Personal

This wonderful photo, taken by my grandfather, captures everything a flower has. The crisp and sharp  picture lets us see more of the flower. Also the background is cool, because you can see the other flower buds and the grass like strips. 

Small, on Medium, to Large
Like my earlier picture Small, Medium, Large, of Yu Darvish and his sons this picture has a small pillow to a medium pillow to a large sofa pillow. The strips on the two pillows make the picture look even more interesting.

From one Tree to the Next

While taking focus and a picture on the closer tree I didn't even see the other one. Then as I was scrolling through my pictures, I spotted the second one in the background.

Spotted Leaf
While taking pictures of flowers I spotted this green and yellow colored bush. It looked like it someone took a paint brush and splattered yellow paint all over it. Turning it multicolored and marvelous looking.  

Tiny, on a Wall

This tiny lizard was crawling on this brick wall. The lizard was so small it was only about five inches long. It was probably trying to find food or go back home. It was on the brick for about two minutes before I scared it away.
