Coming Home
March 14th, 2009
I’m on my way home from the beach. It’s hard to drive north and watch the temperature drop on the car’s thermometer. It was a great vacation. Lots of fun. But it’s time to go back home. We are stopping to visit relatives in Virginia, then will go on back to the frozen north.
I haven’t had much access to the internet, but I am able to connect now, so I did a quick laptop edit on this shot of Athena from the condo in Florida. It’s nice to have art in the place you are staying, and Athena sure added a beautiful touch to the side table in the dining room.
This is a good example of shooting with available light. Back in my photojournalism days we defined available light as any light that was available to help light the photo. I enjoy working with outdoor natural light, but also finding artificial light that happens to work well for photos. I liked what those two lamps were doing, so I put Athena into the setting.
Lots of work to do when I get home and there will be more posts coming.
