FIND 52PHOTOS2012 HERE!

Welcome to 52Photos, a year in images 2011. 52Photos started in January of 2010 as an effort to capture 2010, one week at a time, through the eye of a camera lens. I've enjoyed the process immensely, and have been thankful for all the amazing feedback I've gotten as a response to my images, stories, and thoughts throughout the year. I'll be continuing with the blog through 2011 with a slightly new look, but still providing 52 images and some thoughts to go along with them. Technical to abstract, social commentary and just plain fun, you'll find a mix of topics, variety of images, and hopefully, something you will enjoy following along. I've had a number of people ask "where can I buy a print??". The answer is an easy one... select images are available by clicking here. Of course you can just send me a message too, I'd love to hear from ya!

Just Because


Week 7


Just Because
February 19, 2011

A couple of weeks ago, now, I was driving through my neighborhood, right past this flowering, (what I believe to be) cherry blossom tree. There are several right in a row along the drive just a few streets away from home, and I couldn't help myself but stop. With the car running and rain starting to sputter down, I took more than a few photographs, getting somewhat lost in different angles, and thanks to a macro lens I had on loan, some close up's of these striking blossoms. I'm fairly positive the few kids that had just pulled out of their driveway next to where I had my face literally stuck up in and amongst the branches of this tree thought I was some weird old dude, but I'm ok with that. I got some good shots, so it's worth a sideways glance or two.

Nothing more this week than an image I enjoy, and a few words on how I came to create it. Hope you enjoy!
