While out walking around in downtown Atlanta I decided to go inside the Marriott Marquis Hotel and found a very unique structure.

Out of Africa, located in Camp Verde, AZ, is a refuge for animals that zoos no longer want or need. The animals and reptiles are very well taken care

Just out in downtown Philadelphia shooting the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts.

Just ventured down to a local lake on one of the days we ever get fog.

Just out and about in downtown Detroit taking shots of what I find to be interesting lines with the buildings there.

Just visiting a local lake during a period when ospreys make their presence. Got lucky in capturing one who had just caught a fish.

Just walking along a sidewalk in Oakland near Jack Londen Square.

Just walking in San Francisco near the Embarcadero when I noticed a street vendor breaking down his display for the day.

My kitty thinks she's king of the jungle...actually she was just yawning but then you probably knew that.

Just down at a local lake taking shots of birds.

Just walking around downtown St. Louis, MO just looking to see what catches my eye (well actually both since I am not a cyclops).

Behind The Lens

Location

The main element, the foreboding human figure, is a metal sculpture taken in downtown Detroit.

Time

If I recall it was middle of the day, mostly cloudy in the winter.

Lighting

Lighting was nothing special.

Equipment

I used an Olympus OM-D E-M10 II with the 17mm f1.8 lens.

Inspiration

Did not really know what I was going to do with the image. I was just intrigued by the size and form of this figure (which I think was supposed to be a businessman aka "MadMen" era.

Editing

I turned the image of the man into a silhouette and then merged it into an IPhone app called Pixelmator that has some background images (the spooky looking cemetary).

In my camera bag

At this point I have either a Ricoh GRIII with me or my Olympus Pen-F

Feedback

I sometimes capture images not knowing how or if I will use it and if so in what manner. I just try to keep openminded about. If I see something that resonates with me I will make the image and see if my imagination can find a way to use it creatively.
