Submitted by My Viewfinder Blog
I was able to take Monday off from work to enjoy a beautiful Fall day in the Smoky Mountains. I decided to visit Mouse Creek Falls, a fall I had not yet been to. My family and I visited the area of Big Creek where the fall is located several years [...]
SW Utah Workshop – Day 2
Submitted by Ralph Nordstrom Photography Blog
Sunrise this morning was part way up the tunnel road at a switchback that provides a great view across Zion canyon. The opposite wall is dominated by the West Temple and the Alter of Sacrifice. The pre-sunrise alpenglow was spectacular. And this was followed by the wonderful first light. You’ll [...]
1102 – Love-Less
Submitted by The Daily Photography of Andreas Manessinger Blog
This is a shop in Vienna’s 7th district. I have not looked what they sell or do. They are called “Less is More”, and as I looked at the nice neon sign, I thought that the distribution of lights would make for a nice square. It took [...]
1101 – Deep Within The Corners Of My Mind
Submitted by The Daily Photography of Andreas Manessinger Blog
This image is more than a month old. After working on my portfolios (already seen them? I’d really be interested in your opinions) all through the night, I was not really inclined to go out, and when I finally changed my mind, weather changed its, deciding to [...]
1100 – The Gate of the Past
Submitted by The Daily Photography of Andreas Manessinger Blog
This is a house in Bleiburg/Pliberk, a small town in south-east Carinthia. We were there for genealogical reasons, to visit an old tombstone in the wall of the church.
I did not know Bleiburg, at least not its center. I have always taken the main road, but as [...]
Soaked
Submitted by My Viewfinder Blog
It’s hard to believe this region was under drought conditions at this time last year. I think we’ve had maybe one day without rain in the last two weeks. I think webs are starting to form between my toes. Opportunities to get out and do some Fall photography have been limited [...]
Trusting Photographs
Submitted by Howard Grill Blog
One of my blog posts that I most enjoyed writing was entitled “Photography And Truth”, which can be read here and here. These posts ultimately turned into an essay that was published on Uwe Steinmuller’s Digital Outback Photography website. In the essay, I mentioned that I was surprised that there was [...]
Yesterday
Submitted by Craig Photography Blog
Up at 7am after going to bed six hours earlier, feeling good. Proof of God for me is found in a coffee pot. Simple revelation but nonetheless true.
Cold morning walk thought the streets of PGH on my way to a PHOTO WALK. I love these gray skies of Pittsburgh; this [...]
1099 – Glamorous Glue
Submitted by The Daily Photography of Andreas Manessinger Blog
I’m on the train to Carinthia right now and we’re just crossing the first ridge of mountains. There’s snow outside. Not as yesterday, not a mere idea of snow, nope, this is a white, wet blanket of coldness.
I took this image on my way to the train. [...]

Quick Quotes: Ernst Haas
Submitted by Howard Grill Blog
“The limitations of photography are in yourself, for what we see is only what we are.”
Ernst Haas
I enjoy this quote because, while it talks about limitations, it also explains why it is that each person’s photographs are truly unique.

Max Patch Road
Submitted by My Viewfinder Blog
This is the road to the top of Max Patch mountain. I wish I could give you an interesting story about how that name came about, but I don’t have a clue. This route is a narrow, gravel road with little traffic that encourages one to drive slow and enjoy the [...]

1096 – The Letter
Submitted by The Daily Photography of Andreas Manessinger Blog
Postmen in Austria use such yellow trolleys. You’ve already seen one of them in “655 – On A Lonely Avenue“. It’s one of the images that I put on Fine Art Photoblog.
Ahh, Fine Art Photoblog! I probably don’t advertise it often enough (in fact I almost never [...]

This is the guy we first had in “1034 – That Look You Give That Guy“, and then recently in “1089 – He’s The Keeper” and “1090 – Feelin’ The Same Way“.
For no particular reason I have changed to the Sigma 20/1.8, a long-time favorite, and [...]

We passed this barn on the way up to Max Patch Mountain Sunday afternoon. This was before we climbed into the low hanging clouds that covered the summit. (Click on photo to enlarge.)

Solitary Leaf
Submitted by My Viewfinder Blog
We’re not experiencing the kind of Fall color this year that we experienced the previous two years. There’s more yellow and gold, and less orange and red this year. You’ll hear many theories as to why the intensity and variety of color varies from year to year, but I don’t know [...]
Spending Time
Submitted by Howard Grill Blog
In my last post entitled “Compliments“, I wrote about people’s responses to viewing photographs. Andy Ilachinski made a wonderful and insightful comment to that post. Because I really enjoyed Andy’s words and since people don’t always read the comments section, I thought I would put his response up as a post [...]

Submitted by The Daily Photography of Andreas Manessinger Blog
One more post for today, then I give up. It was a long night last night and I am pretty tired.

Fun With Photoshop Elements
Submitted by My Viewfinder Blog
Digital photography is something I do for fun. I’m serious about trying to make good photographs, but the seriousness is a pleasure for me. I also like to have fun by doing things a little on the silly side, like this composite photo project.
I took a photo of my church’s youth [...]
