Apart of my afternoon I decided to head out and take some pictures and yes it’s been several days of cloudy weather. I went shopping and which included an electronics warehouse here called XS-Cargo. They buy from companies after there are things that are not bought buy retail stores. And there can be some great deals on some – some very decent things. So I browsed around the place was packed as obviously all were shopping for this time of the year. There after I headed from the north end of the city back to downtown. On my way I thought I would used this mono pod, stand and see how it worked with one of my cameras. I pulled into the parking lot and walked up to one of the five bridges to see how well this all would work. As well, when I left I took my camera as there is always something that is of worth – although I have cover so many places within this city there is something that is there even as chilly and cold as it was. Not all that picturesque, yet there is always something that one finds. What I did find that not that many were outdoors as for a Saturday the city seemed to be very silent with the exception of the malls and areas as such.
I headed to this Cathedral of 3rd as it’s now and I was hoping that there was someone around and yes there was a rehearsal going on so I didn’t want to intrude, but I took a few snaps and then left as the pastor there unfortunately is dealing with cancer matters. The organ pipes within this place of faith, have always been a benchmark as within that place was where I really got into photography. So there shall be another day.
Driving past the University I decided to pull over and take a few pictures of the entrance way of the Dean of the University here. By this time it I knew my computer would be fixed – the Desktop that is.
Arriving home was nice as all in all most all of several things were done. Pictures need not be precise as I find it’s really an art in combination within the part of the day’s excursions. Most of all it just is an illustration of creativity.
Good shot.
ReplyDeleteThank you Dixie..I just loaded these.
ReplyDeleteso many shades of gray. nice pic.
ReplyDeleteAlways have liked lanterns like this . Early morning , evening is very nice too to capture some photos with the soft glow of light. This is nice.
ReplyDeleteNice photos
ReplyDeleteLinda it's been very grey for a few days and I don't place as much weight into it right now. Not that I don't love it.
ReplyDeleteBut it's not the top priority however my intention was to see if these would all work as this system was just fixed and
it was a part of my day. Mind you it I have never seen the city come to such a stillness.
When he has everything up including all the decorations it's amazing during the day during this time of the year
ReplyDeleteas well as especially at night.
I love this one....one could imagine a horse drawn sleigh coming round the corner.
ReplyDeleteI love long pathways,there is something to that ...life, hope ... i can't explain
ReplyDeleteA very nice shot. Pictures such as this really communicateif one is deep into photography
Yeah, I just pulled of the street and as I was on my way home, I thought I would just take a snap.
ReplyDeleteLovely.
ReplyDeleteLooking into vast horizons makes us feel refresh, happy. A very lovely one. Shades of gray and white and a thinged of earth colour as showed by trees down below ... this is a beautiful place indeed. Winter time can be so oh romantic eh.
But do take when doing those shots Jack :)
*care*
ReplyDeleteI am, but I don't intend to thrive on taking picture Maritess. Yet it's a hobby
ReplyDeleteand I don't take them or am driven to do them as much as before. But this
was enjoyable. Before Christmas I do have some intentions within photography.
But we shall see where and when that take place within the next 10 days.
I love bridges. It connotes life. It gives me to think of how our forefathers made do without it in early times. Crossing the river with boats even on a wintry stormy weather yet they survived.
ReplyDeleteA perfect angle to get to view what you are trying to impart Jack. Neat.
am not taking pictures nor reproducing Jack ... i just love looking at it. Rest assured. Be well :)
ReplyDelete... oh am sorry Jack ... i accidentally deleted it, am sorry. tight hugs :)
ReplyDeletethe beams, the archs ... the art of putting it altogether to looked as elegant as this ... It's so beautiful
ReplyDeleteThe brown earth colour really add life to the gray wintry atmosphere Jack ... you have a nice camera. It came out so crispy clear. Nice
ReplyDeleteSounds like an interesting store over there - I like the concept. Yea, I bet there would be some bargains there at quieter times of the year. I particularly enjoyed your images of the cathedral. Very impressive architecture.
