Shooting Your Neighborhood

Get out and Shoot Your Neighborhood

No matter where you live, in the city or way out in the boondocks, shoot it

Sometimes we forget the terrific scenes we live in and that surround us. There is grace, beauty or turmoil and degradation all around us, that is begging for us to shoot it. Get your camera, clean the lens and perhaps the sensor, take a fully charged battery and a monopod or tripod with you and take advantage of a season. In this case Fall. No matter how many times you may have done this, if you give yourself half a chance, you'll come up with a few shots out of a few dozen you'll enjoy, or print, or Print-n-Gift to someone this Christmas.

Shoot colored leaves, shoot some rain, shoot a flying bird or a running dog, or the wind, clouds, a stationary object as cars pass in a blur. Grab an hour, or more, and get outside to shoot something special. Hey it's Halloween and you know you'll see some great carvings. But for that you may need a telescopic lens to pull it right into the center and real closeup.

Ghastly Halloween Pumpkin

Ooooooh Scary


My Grand Daughter designed while I carved this Ghastly pumpkin and then asked if I would "Please GrandPa, put this on your blog". How can you resist a Grand Daughter? So here you go. These are the ones she chose. They are in order of her choice and they are sized as she chose them to be.



 
When I asked her how she wanted her pumpkin carved she said, "I want it scary GrandPa". Ok sweetheart here's my scary carving. Tonight she and her parents are hunting sweets while GrandPa is home waiting for the spoils of victory. Good luck Sweetheart.
