Recent participation in some photography forums has piqued an interest in doing a Project 365. Photography has been a hobby on and off for over 40 years and in the last 18 months my interest has intensified. So I've decided to jump in, give it a shot (no pun intended) and see if I can shoot every day for a year.

My expectations for this project are that it will provide motivation to expand my skills both behind the camera and in post-processing and provide a vehicle for experimentation. My photog pal Doug has been a great mentor, so I want to publicly say thanks; this is your fault (kidding of course).

It is going to be a learning experience, so any and all comments, critiques and encouraging words are welcome.

Thanks for viewing.

Under Repair

8/2/10 - Day 227
Running an errand this afternoon, I noticed the Congress Parkway bridge undergoing repair.  I liked the contrast between the "lacy" scaffolding and "bold" bridge structure.  Went back out later with my camera and framed this shot.

Fifth Season

7/30/10 - Day 224
My interpretation of today's Daily Shoot assignment #257 was more about the creation of pavement than the pavement itself.

Light at the End of the Tunnel


7/21/10 - Day 215
Nope, actually "Light at the Top of the Skylight" would be a more accurate description.  Humongous skylight shot today at one of our construction projects.

Did a walk-thru of an existing property today, including the roof.  This image is a small section of the maze of piping, ductwork and equipment.

The Taper


2/16/10 - Day 60
My plan today was to shoot at one of our construction sites.  This just happened to coincide with the Daily Shoot assignment.  It's great when that happens!

Jailbreak 2?


2/3/10 - Day 47
Nope.  Just some exterior stud wall construction going on at one of my project sites.  See Day 18 for an earlier image in the Jailbreak series.

One Month Down


1/19/10 - Day 32
Today marks the start of the second month for my Project 365.  I've heard that tradition requires the first image of every month (the 19th, in my case) to be a self-portrait.  This image was taken at one of our recently completed projects in Redwood City, CA.  The glass curtainwall and earlier rainstorm makes for some interesting reflections on the building and pavement.

Bridge Over Troubled Waters


1/6/10 - Day 19
As part of entitlements associated with a campus project, a pedestrian bridge over an adjacent slough was required.  This bridge ties together two sections of the San Francisco Bay Trail.  The sunrise image of a bridge detail looks out onto the San Francisco Bay.
