Photographic Thoughts — 10/20/2024 to 10/26/2024

To me, photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place… I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.” — Elliott Erwitt

Thank you for all the new views and likes from last week, it helps keep me inspired.

Sunday, 10/20/2024: Posted photo — Past Foliage.

The foliage has past in my area. We do not have bright, vibrant colors. We have the browns of fall. The sky was a great color blue and the contract between the leaves was amazing, especially with the brightness of the sun.

Monday, 10/21/2024: Posted photo — Comet.

If you look closely to the middle of this photo, you can see the comet that I posted last week. The comet is very hard to see with the naked eye tonight. You can see it very clearly when using binoculars and I was lucky to capture it with my phone.

Tuesday, 10/22/2024: Posted photo — Full Moon.

Last week I experimented with new software to stack my photos of the harvest moon. This is a second attempt at it. I am much happier with tonight’s photo. I also used my “moon” lens tonight, getting better starting photos of the moon prior to stacking.

Wednesday, 10/23/2024: Posted photo — Milky Way.

Used a different software tonight to take a photo of the Milky Way. The moon is my primary photography subject. I would like the Milky Way to be my second subject, except I live in an area with many trees so it is a difficult subject.

Unlike moon photos that I have been taken for years, I have only been taking Milky Way photos for a few years.

I took this photo a few years ago. I was looking at old photos this week, saw this one, and wanted to share it again.

Friday, 10/25/2024: Post photo —Fenway Park.

The baseball championship started today with the best team winning game one.

I that honor, I posted one of my favorite photos from the oldest ballpark in MLB, America’s Most Beloved Ballpark, Fenway Park.

Saturday, 10/26/2024: Post photo — Acorn Cleanup.

Last week I posted about all the acorns in our yard, today I started to clean the up.

That is all for now. Until next week, be safe.
