horizontal closeup of a begonia stalk with green leaves and 3 orange and yellow flowers in different stages of freshness and wilting, seen in artificial light against a dark window
the same begonia stalk, now a bit out of focus, with the image focusing instead on the reflection of the photographer's hands in the window. this image is showing the window not just as a dark area, but some of the green foliage in twilight on the other side of it as well. little pieces of the photographer's orange hat and black camera are also visible in the reflection
similar view as before, a bit darker again, different positions of the fingers, no hat
similar view as before, this time zoomed out a bit, showing more of the foliage outside the window

#photography #bloomScrolling

a stalk with two cornflowers in dappled sunlight, the flowers brightly lit and sharply delineated before a background of green foliage and dark shadows
the same view as in the previous image, but now the sunlight is hitting things slightly differently, making the image as a whole much lighter, the contrast between the flowers and the background less stark, producing an overall softer effect
again the same view with different light, this time the light is overall much more diffuse, the stark shadows have disappeared entirely, the color palette is more blueish, the strong yellow-green notes have disappeared, the whole image is soft and pastelly
same view, strong sunlight is back and with it the dark shadows, strong contrasts and yellow glow in the green tones

horizontal format photo of two feet resting on a brick-red fabric, hit by direct sunlight coming from a window outside the top of the frame of the image, resulting in the feet casting dark shadows, being surrounded by dark shadows, while also receiving some strong red reflected light from the fabric, plus some intense glowing red sub-surface scattering in the toes at the border between light and shadow.
similar view as in the previous image, slightly different position of the feet and thus different shadow patterns
again a similar view as before, only now the left foot is raised a bit more, while the right foot is lowered, so that the shadows cast by the left foot's toes are much more dramatic, while the right foot is illuminated more brightly, making for a stark contrast between the two

A yellow flower with 6 irregular petals and maybe 1 or 2 missing would have a circumscribed circle fill about 70% of the square frame it is in;  it is not quite in perfect focus and shaows of some of its petals can be seen on a green leaf behind it that is really unfocused,  the background to the upper right turns from dark purple to light purple as you go down.

again the same view as before, but now the sunlight is hitting the begonia flower straight in the middle from behind, giving its center an intense bright glow, contrasting with the more shadow-y background

Mostly black cat with orange streaks walks through a doorway
#photo #photography #cats #caturday

A cat walks through a doorway from a woom with a different colored floor and what looks like a plywood wall with several small tables,  bowls on the floor and some kind of cleaning product on one table.

Orange Tiger Lily (𝐿𝑖𝑙𝑙𝑖𝑢𝑚 𝑙𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑖𝑓𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚) that I also saw in a Collegetown garden
#photo #photography #ithaca #bloomscrolling

Mostly orange flower with six petals that are reddish-orange on the outside but yellow at the center with lines running radially and six stamen with yellow pollen on the ends sticking out of the center,  behind it are blurred out shapes that look like green plants and fallen leaves

Heavy on the flowers today because it's getting late and I haven't finished developing today's batch -- hear are some peach colored Sakura from last April
#photo #photography #flowers

A vertically oriented image that is bisected by a branch which has a sprig of rose-type flowers that are peach colors sticking vertical out of it with unopened buds in the near fields and many open flowers fuzzy and far away and the leaves are not very green probably because I color graded it.

Long jumper hangs in the air at Trackapalooza 2025
#sports #photo #photography #flrc

Teenage boy with a black shirt and shorts looks suspended in the air with both arms up and his right leg folded at a 90 degree angle in front of him and the back leg folded back,  behind him on the track there is a man in a billed cap holding a small child,  and a man and a woman hanging out by a fence.

A daisy family flower with a radial gradient from red-orange in the center to yellow on the outside
#flowers #photo #photography

Flower with 13 or so narrow petals that are red on the inside to orange on the outside with a curved out of focus stem in the background and an even more abstract and defocused green and purple area behind

Believe it or not, this kid is really fast, he was the fourth runner to make it past my location in heavy rain after climbing up a really steep hill
#flrc #photo #photography

A child running by himself in the woods between who just passed between two trees with white rectangular blazes,  has a green bib with white letters that reads 624 and looks kinda forlorn because he's getting rained on and ran up a great big hill

Mural in the parking garage at the Cherry Arthaus that I visited on my circumnavigation of the Inlet this morning
#photo #photography #mural

A mural on a wall only slightly marred by a white box for a fire extinguisher with a red sticker with a white arrow that points down.  The mural is irregularly shaped and has patches of blue water and purple sky with moons and planets and shooting stars and lots of white dogs with red spots not to mention whimsical things like tea cups and stringed instruments

This weekend I went out past Newark Valley to Oakley Corners State Forest which has two fair sized ponds -- this one has an island in it
#photo #photography #landscape

The lower half of this image is the surface of a still pond reflecting the sky,  in the middle there is an island with short light-colored trees,  in the distance there's a row of much darker trees,  about 3/4 of the way to the right the side of the pond makes the trees form an expanding triangle.  A small boat with people fishing can be seen towards the right,  close in there is a stick extending into the water,  and above it all a fair-weather cumulus blue sky!

I saw this blooming today downtown by the Cayuga Lake Inlet, my wife thinks it is a tree that's supposed to bloom in the Spring that's blooming in late August instead
#photo #photography #flowers

A branch from the center top of the frame descends across the center line to the middle and has two pink-purple blooms together with some old-looking leaves,  further out out of focus are a few more branches in similar condition and a lot of blue sky

The other kind of crane always flies away when I show up but this one is working in Collegetown building a new building called 'The Ivy' at the intersection of College and Dryden
#photo #photography #crane

A yellow crane rises vertically straight up with a space frame beam supporting a cross beam long in towards the left and with a counterweight towards the right,  above a blue sky mostly obscured by a huge cumulus cloud,  in the bottom right the very tops of a few buildings are in front of or behind the crane.

Queen Jane was one of those premium cats they put out in front in the SPCA and was named Shakira when we got her -- they thought she was too social to be a "barn cat" but our barn is full of horse lessoners

Black cat,  the kind of cat a witch has as a familiar walking to the right over short-cropped crass with her far paw up in the air and her tail curled up

Lenny's other cat is a dark calico -- these cats are the first pictures I developed with DxO 8, which I needed, because there was hardly any light in this room
#photo #photography #cats

Mostly black calico cat looks right at me with its head and shoulders in frame and ears up.

Tonight in the other direction I found a cream-colored juveline cat was so cute but by the time I get the camera set up I was only able to get a photo of this black juvenile cat it was travelling with
#photo #photography

Black cat is standing sideways relative to me and looking right at me with it's head turned and it's tail making the figure of a logistic curve with it's front legs straight vertical but rear legs poised for quick motion on the side of a asphalt road with grass on the margin.

My first shot with the Laowa 9mm/F5.6 W-Dreamer which is a rectilinear fisheye lens that leaves straight lines more or less straight -- here's a Cayuga Medical Center facility that has a gym, sports med doc, physical therapist and weight loss clinic right by the inlet
#photo #photography

A large building looks small and strangely distorted:  to the left a smaller box is stacked on a larger box,  both with a creamy colored wall broken by windows that reflect the sky,  to the left an all-glass section is covered by an awning with vast pillars -- in front close cropped grass,  a brick path and a bridge,  above a blue sky with clouds illuminated by the sun at the upper left,  making the building cast strong shadows to the lower right.
