Sometimes a little tilt can create interest.

Study in Blue

On November 30, 2012 By Fred KingIn Architecture, Blue Sky, Manhattan, New York, Nikon D7000, ThoughtsLeave a comment

Shot in midtown Manhattan. Not just an experiment in mood, but also what caught my eye was the streaks or rays of discoloration seen diagonally through the tallest building.

Post #2,000

Since this is my 2,000th posting on this blog I was thinking I should dig through the archives for something befitting the milestone. Fortunately, that was just a passing thought.

Fashion Shoot

On November 5, 2012 By Fred KingIn New York, Nikon D7000Leave a comment

Both still and video was used in this fashion shoot one morning in the new Brooklyn Bridge Park. A very scenic area and the weather was beautiful this morning. I thought it was time for a change of pace from the floral images and those of urban decay that I am so fond of.

Along the Interurban Trail-#?

This first image was taken nearly at the end of the Interurban Trail. The center of the photo ( the vanishing point?) is the end.

Tim’s Cascade Crunch factory, famous for those thick, teeth-breaking potato chips. Another view of Mt. Rainier and a shot of a cow viewing me.

Sunrise

Photos were taken from the Sunrise side of Mt. Rainier. The lodge is at @ 6400′ elevation. Trails that lead up to the glaciers, alpine lakes and other ridges start from this lodge. This day we took a short trail called Huckleberry, steep, but short. The outcropping of rock is fascinating. There are spots along the trail, viewpoints I guess, where the drop-off is a direct fall for hundreds of feet. I have a thing about heights so I stay back from the edge at those points along the trail.

On a recent, hazy day in Tacoma, the fowl were out and about.

What would……

What would a nature trail be without high tension power lines? The Interurban Trail probably started out as a maintenance road for the power company and morphed, over time, into something the public could use.

Yesterday we took a day trip to Sunrise, on the east side of Mt. Rainier. As you can see it was a beautiful day! Will be posting more from this day in the future.
