Foggy Rain

12/11/10 - Day 358
Was a very hectic week, so I slept in today and woke up in kind of a fog. It rained here all day, so the foggy mist and water pouring out of the downspout captured my mood.

Shot for Daily Shoot assignment #391: "What can make a photograph feel moody to you? Illustrate your answer today."

Rear Windshield

11/21/10 - Day 338
It rained lightly this morning and I caught this reflection when going out to meet some buddies for coffee.  Fortunately, I had read the Daily Shoot assignment #371: "Find or make a reflection in a window today and shoot through it to create a layered composition."

Puddles

6/18/10 - Day 182
Skies opened up today around 4pm and the aftermath was a messy walk to the train station.  Under protection of a canopy, I just started shooting feet walking through puddles.  I chose this one because the leading line of the reflection satisfies today's Daily Shoot assignment #215.

Hole in the Sky

5/21/10 - Day 154
Flying into O'Hare today, we were dodging the clouds.  We landed under a ceiling of dark clouds.  Taxiing to the gate, I saw this bright spot and was able to get the camera out in time to capture it.

Another Crappy Morning

5/13/10 - Day 146
Another night and morning of thunderstorms dropping 2"-4" of rain on the Chicago area.   Wiper blade shot is for today's Daily Shoot.

Abandoned

5/11/10 - Day 144
In keeping with today's Daily Shoot assignment, this is definitely a "tool" often required during spring in Chicago.  Wonder why this one was abandoned?

Blue Shoes

4/8/10 - Day 111
Another sidewalk-level, drizzling rain shot.  The blue slacks were a stroke of luck.  Take a look at my runner-up shot for today entitled "Red Laces".  Consistent with the instructions of today's Daily Shoot, these shots were taken with my small point & shoot.

Blue Umbrellas

4/7/10 - Day 110
Today in a drizzling rain, I took a few shots at sidewalk level before hustling to the train.  In review, I liked this one where the two umbrellas could be isolated.

Rain

3/2/10 - Day 74
Raining hard in SF this morning.  With 40 minutes on the tarmac waiting for a gate, I was able to play with the dials on the point & shoot (Daily Shoot assignment). This shot was taken out the airplane window using the supermacro setting.
