Photography

Hey Hey its AL from the 2019 end of the decade studios just kidding. I wanted to do another abstract for the end of the month this year. I decided to use this photograph, I took on December 26, 2019 as the end of the month abstract. I took this photograph of a dock silhouetted used with background as the sunset colors at Jordan Lake and it really came it really cool. I hope Al D or the old man does not have this picture on his blog. I am going to continue making new seasonal themes for next year in 2020 and stay tuned in for that. Hope you all have a great new years eve and don't party as much as me or the old fart Al D does on the new year.

This is the end of the sunrise and sunset shots I did for the final day of 2019 and for the final of the decade which was very cool to do . I have now done, the sunrise on Christmas Day and new years eve which was very cool to do because I had those two holidays off from work. This morning on December 31st was somewhat not as cold as I thought it would be, but I still managed it get out to the neighborhood pond and get photos of the sunrise that morning which turned out to be fairly clear that morning which made some cool fartsy pictures that morning along with mist across the pond during sunrise conditions. I also have pictures of the mist coming across the pond as well. Doing Mist photography during a sunrise shot is also what nature photographers want especially if it is good enough to photography but this time it was perfect conditions to photograph it during the sunrise conditions.   I was amazed at how well the mist was cooperating  that day with the sunrise con

Hey Hey its Birding stories number 9 and almost the end of 2019 wahoo. Today the story is about a Northern Mockingbird that I also photographed at my neighborhood pond. This northern Mockingbird, landed on a branch and posed for me while I was getting pictures of it and suddenly it flew off to another tree branch and I continued to get more pictures of this bird while It was doing some behaviors that these kinds of birds have during the winter months.

Merry Christmas Everyone from the Sunrise studios at Wellesley Place, Just Kidding. I was finally able to get up early for sunrise conditions on Christmas morning this year and got some really amazing photographs of sunrise on Christmas Day. I had to underexpose to keep the colors the way they were producing during sunrise conditions. It was somewhat cold that morning and I still adventured out and got some bird pictures along with the sunrise that day. I will be doing another one on December 31st to end 2019 and riding in the new year with a sunrise shot to start off 2020.

Hey Hey its Al with Birding stories on this wonderful December day. Lets see what Al picks out for this story time. Oh lets see what Al has picked out for this birding story time this week. Oh its A tufted Titmouse! The story goes I was walking around my neighborhood pond to see what kind of birds I would photograph and spot today at the pond while I was enjoying the outside weather. I came along and spotted this Tufted Titmouse on a branch , that had landed there and I had the pop-runtimes to take the photographs I wanted of it. Then all of sudden it flew away to another tree a short distance away and I continued getting pictures of it. Then  it finally decided to fly into a higher branch on a another tree which I couldn't get anymore photographs of this tufted titmouse.

Yeah its birding story 7. Le'ts see what I pick this time for this weeks birding story time shall we. Today the birding story is a Mourning dove. Believe it or not, so here's how the story goes. This mourning dove decided to fly on a branch on a tree above me. I decided to take the pictures of the mourning dove and then someone around the bend came up and scared it away. But anyway I got the pictures before the other person scared it away.

Wahoo its Birding story time 6. Let's see what the story is today for the birding story.There was a black capped chickadee eating on a gum ball on day and decided to peck on it as its snack for that afternoon. Then he or she decided to fly away to another tree to enjoy another gumboil or not. Who knows the rest of the story?
