Tunnel (33 of 52)

Hello My Friends,

I have gotten a little behind on my photo taking for the 52 pic club.  Its been a busy couple of months, but I am not complaining, life is good.  I hope to play catch-up in the next few weeks. 

My wife and I went to a concert recently and I captured this one.  (The Red Hot Chili Peppers for those who are interested.)  I was playing with long exposure.  I just simply rotated the camera as I took the photo.

I call this one "Tunnel".

Where's the Parvins (32 of 52)

Hi all,

The wife and I took the kids to LEGO Fest this past weekend.  It was quite impressive.  Tons of people, lots of neat stuff.  We had a blast. 

Here is one from that adventure.  I call it " Where's the Parvins"

And yes that is a sea of LEGO bricks on the floor.

Texas Strong (31 of 50)

Hello My Friends,
 
At the Institute of Texan Cultures museum in San Antonio, Tx there is a huge neon Texas Flag inside.  I always wanted to take a Silhouette photo there with my girls.  Well I had my opportunity this past Friday. 

This feature is located in the main hall, so it's difficult to get a clean shot without someone walking in frame.  I think I took about a dozen photos and only got 2 that I didn't have an extra body, foot, head, etc in it.

f/6.3 1/60sec ISO 400. 

The framing on this shot was challenging.  I was trying to maintain a standard frame ratio and keep the flag still looking like a flag, as well as, keeping the girls silhouette still looking natural and not cut off.   

I call this one "Texas Strong"
