A Motorcycle, Route 2, and Camel's Hump (click for larger view)
Description: I was driving down route 2 in Williston, Vermont and I had to pull out my camera and get this shot of the person driving the motorcycle with Camel’s Hump sitting prominently in the background.
I must admit that I have been exploiting the lomography look. This particular photograph was digitally converted to black and white and on top of that the lomo effect was applied. In the context of the larger project (shooting one photograph every single day) 950 photographs lined up on a wall would expose a small chronological grouping of similar photo attributes (via the lomo filter). I have used this filter five times in the past seven days. I can’t help it. In my opinion, the look creates mystery, and a level of intensity for what could have previously been considered an average photograph. And I am certain that there are many of you who disagree, or even have issues with using software filters to manipulate photographs at all. I understand.
Okay, rambling….that’s what happens when you have been up for an hour and a half drinking coffee and it’s only 5:00am. It’s the weekend! Who has time to sleep?
This month marks 938 consecutive days of photographs. I call this project the Things I Saw Photo Galleries.
This project first began back in January of 2008 when I decided that I would post one photograph per day, every day.

Description: I stopped at a red light in Burlington, Vermont, looked to the right and saw these apartments, grabbed my camera and took the shot. The photograph was edited later by selecting half of the photograph and promoting it to a layer then converting that layer to black and white.
