I was walking down a street on the 14th when I noticed something strange about the building I was passing. The brick cut-outs for the doorways (which there were many of) were all the same, but the doors and windows in each cut-out entrance were all very different. The part that caught me as strange was that these doors were all about five feet away from each other...on the same building...
I went for a very early walk through the nearby Botanic Gardens on the 15th. I noticed that the Palm House's glass windows were pretty foggy from the early morning mist. I decided to try to use this to my advantage by using the foggy windows as a filter of sorts. It worked, blurring portions of the image as well as allowing significant light leak in certain parts of it...
I guess I had flowers on the mind because the next day, the 16th, I was back at the gardens looking to do some macro-esque floral shots. I am not the biggest fan of flower photography, but I am a fan of trying my hand with any photographic subject. Something I do enjoy with floral shots is the usage of black and white film (or b&w digital processing). It seems like a field that (at least nowadays) isn't as saturated. Now I know that some of these shots are not technically "floral" shots...but some are, and that's what I went out intending to shoot, so that's good enough reasoning to keep calling it that, yes?...
I really like the second photograph. Anyone know what kind of flowers those are?
