A Winter Drive

A trip to Winterset for an Xray of my wrist prompted me to get up early and take a meandering drive to 3 of the Madison County Covered Bridges. The winds were blowing clouds into the sky and robbing us of the beautiful blue sky and sunlight. I had to act fast to get these in before storm clouds took over and darkened the afternoon. Lens used was a Sigma 10-20mm, and I used Hiubbies 4X4 to get as close as possible.





A Quiet Riot

The winter winds have been blowing, and the overcast skies lend for a very subtle color in the horizon. Here are a couple sunsets I have een on my drive to work.


Lensbaby 2.0

The lensbaby is a selective focus lens, this fun lens looks like a bellows and tilt lens combined. All maual focus and completely artistic and crative. it's alot of fun to Bend It Baby...

Colonial...Good Bread

So...I was never good at resolutions, lol I found some time so I added new posts with several recent photos.

This old neon sign is on the closed Colonial bread bakery in Des Moines. Used a standard Zoom lens shot against a blue sky with puffy white clouds.
