George Rogers Clark Memorial part 1

This past weekend we drove back home for a birthday party.  I decided to get up one morning and take a few pictures of the George Rogers Clark Memorial.  I’m always trying to imagine places to take landscape pictures back home but unfortunately, the majority of what is around is flat farm land.  This is one of the few unique structures in and around where I’m from.

One Way

It’s a simple interest but if you carefully look, there is a log of symmetry.  Often times this symmetry isn’t noticed until after the image was taken but in this instance I knew I had something immediately prior to composing the shot.

Waiting for Life

I pass these trees everyday on my way to work.  I’ve many times tried to imagine a good shot of them.  This past weekend there was just a faint amount of fog and I stopped my truck and took a few shots.  Initially, I didn’t think I would like the shot with the guard rail but I think it gives the image a more 3D appearance and adds to the symmetry provided by the tree’s.

P.S.  As you can easily notice, there is nothing “alive” wear I live right now.  Hopefully soon, we’ll start seeing some life.
