I enjoy being out and about – So, I use “taking photos” as my excuse to be out and about where ever I am. Always looking for photos of things that others may not notice.  I, also, enjoy reading many subjects  – most of my readings put me to sleep very early – HaHa!  

Since leaving the Island, I have been studying the the creation of inequality in Neanderthals and Homo sapiens, I been studying the six elements of design as applied to photography,  I been reading about the negotiation techniques used by the FBI, I have studied the returning soldier’s challenges of becoming a civilian and Governments role in that transition – see what I mean about sleep!

 Last week I even taught a 2 hour class on elements of design in photo composition. Two of those elements are “Patterns” and  “Texture” –

So, I checked my photo library.  Here a few “Pattern or Texture” photos I have taken. It was fun to pick them out  for you:

Fallen tree

Mold on log

Tree bark

Fall cedar

Wind on the Lake Heron

Red sky – Brooklyn, NY City,  from the sky
