Noon is not the best time to be shooting the courthouse in Hastings, MN. Thankfully, the presets in LR4 are pretty good.

Project 100: Photograph Nine

This gas station is within ten minutes of my house. I’ve lived for eight years in this area and never took a photograph of it until last week.

Project 100: Photograph Five

I’ve shot this barn several different times in the past but nothing really stood out to me. One day, as I was driving by it, I turned and looked back and saw this angle, which I hadn’t before. It was a good reminder to always move around and explore every possible angle as there might be a better photograph waiting for you.

As for the barn, I imagine what life was like when you didn’t have the other building behind it.

Project 100: Photograph One

The Pierce County Courthouse in Ellsworth, WI was built in 1905. There’s just something about an old, historic building at sunrise. FWIW, what little processing I did was in the Lightroom 4 Beta (which you can download here.)

Minnesota Photo Project: Week 17

We took the kiddos to Como Zoo a few weeks ago as part of our daughter’s birthday. It was the middle of the day so the lighting wasn’t great but there were a few clouds to diffuse the light so you just had to wait around a bit. I would like to go back and shoot more with some better lighting as this was one of the few I took of the Marjorie McNeely conservatory.
