Nothing to say, until next time...

There were a couple of reasons that I began this blog; one, I wanted to share some of the photos, drawing and things that I do to entertain myself and two, as a means to write more (to become a better writer).


I really did not have anything to say or show as of this moment, I guess I have been a little lazy lately. Actually I have been a little busy with work things, TAAS things, De Anza things (next week) and especially studying thing (structures, yuck) so at times it seems like there is just too much going on so when I have a few minutes to relax and wind down I just sit and watch TV and try not to think.

I opened up my Blog Page today to see if I could be motivated to say something and had nothing to say, so I just started clicking through other blogs (kept hitting the “next blog” button on the top of the screen) and ran across a couple of blogs that just had a couple lines of post that really said nothing more than what they were thinking at that moment; hey I can do that, so here it is.

I really do not have anything to say, until next time…

Extraordinary Dancing Lights…

It is interesting how sometimes the accidents and mistakes turn out to be some of my favorite pictures. I have taken pictures like this before, with longer exposures and then purposefully moving the camera around while the shutter is open, but I tend to forget about it until I try and take a photo in low light and wind up with a very blurry photo with some short streaks of lights (not holding the camera steady). It is always at this point that I remember that I can do some interesting things this way.

This image was taken that exact way, I have several shots that I made prior to this one and after and I like all of them but this one really stood out to me because it looks like a group of dancers moving in unison. Light is an amazing thing and some of the things you can do with that light is quite amazing as well.
