What’s more relaxing than the beach? Taking pictures of the beach. Enjoy because the fall is here (depending on where you’re from)!

Fallen Tree

Sometime after a storm, the tree has fallen and the roots were on its side surrounded by dirt.

Where Cars Go to Die

A fun place for photographers to go. There’s not a lot of people that come here so it’s quiet and relaxing, unless you get bit by a snake. Fortunately, I did not see any. A few months back I saw a truck in town that I wanted to take a picture of on private property. I asked the woman if I can take a picture of it. It was in a car port on her property. She wanted a piece of the action and wanted me to split the profits with her on my photo! I told her I would pay her so I can take the picture on her property, but she didn’t like that idea. She said many people come wanting to do video work or photography cause it was once part of a plantation. She told me I can leave my portfolio in her mailbox for further viewing! Has anyone ever had something like this happen to them?

Anyway, this is a museum in White GA. that I went to and I really don’t need her measly image after all. As I approached the property I wasn’t impressed with the truck so it wasn’t my loss compared to this treasure that I found.

I was thinking, just for fun to give her a signed image of one of my trucks! What do you think?

The Last of the Leaves

Again, here I am using the new lens. Winter is here, and it was pretty warm on Christmas. We decided to take a walk, although these are not the pictures from the walk. These are from my back deck on the table.

 

The Pink Ribbon

There were plenty of landscaping opportunities on the large slab of stone that I was standing on. Stone Mountain has plenty of areas as does Lithonia where the surface is stone. But you do not see any of the stone here since I was focusing on the river. On the branch of the tree that fell over the river, a pink ribbon was tied to it. If fact there were quite a few pink ribbons along the river that was tied onto branches. I focused on the water to get this shot.

 

 

Fungi

When I wait on my son during tennis practice I go hunting around in the woods for a photo op.

More Hidden Acres

I’m through I think editing these photos. Looking at these photos helped me make some decisions on how to make my photos better. Now I need to buy a new tripod cause my old one is almost busted up! The top two are the fireplace and the bottom one is my favorite out of the whole trip the lighting wasn’t overbearing.

 

More Trees

One this day, I had this brilliant idea to climb Stone Mountain and bring my son. He was loving it so much, that he was ready to go home! The sun had set by the time we reached the bottom. We had no intentions of climbing to the top, but I’m glad we did. Otherwise I would not have taken these pictures.

 

Mountain Peak, Before and After

I can’t believe this mountain is only one mile high. It takes forever to climb it. There are many other people that are climbing the mountain too, but in this picture is looks like there is no one there. Also, it seems as soon as I’m ready to take a picture, everyone has to walk in front of me. One dude walked in front of me 3 times and didn’t even realize what I was doing. I know, 1st world problems.
