The weekly theme for our group this week (until next Wednesday) is “macro” or “close-up”. I just took this shot a few minutes ago & entered it. Swing by & join us & submit your shots. New Era Photographers Have a great weekend if I don’t get to talk to you all tomorrow.
Photographer’s Group & Twitter
Ok, I have told you all about the photographer’s group that I created on Facebook with a very good friend of mine, Mind We are having a blast with it & sure would love to have you all in there with us. New Era Photographers We also created a Twitter account for it to help promote the group. NewEraPhotos Swing by & follow us. We try to pass out love to everybody & help get you noticed. Hope you all had a great Halloween & sure hope you have a great weekend. I’m gonna leave you with another shot that I got on the photo walk a few weeks ago. It’s a close-up of the trolley tracks in downtown Memphis.
Another Update
I’m so sorry that I haven’t been able to post any new pictures. As I told you all last week, our little son was born. He was right at 4 weeks early so he has 2 spots on his lungs that weren’t fully developed so he is still in the hospital. He’s doing great & should be coming home tomorrow or Friday. I have been off work this whole time to be able to stay with him. Plus the hospital he is in is 2 hours away. I know I said that I would post some new pictures this week, but it looks like it will now be next week. I have to do it at work. I sure hope you all bare with me & I hope I don’t lose any of you great people. Just wanted to fill you all in.
Also, I have been given a few awards since I have been out of the loop. As soon as I can get back to work to use the computer so I can actually post links, I am gonna be making a post thanking these wonderful people & so you can check them out. Looking forward to being back with you all very soon. Thanks….Jason
Hit The Bricks
Thought this one came out cool. I have heard that this is the effect you get from adjusting the aperture (where the main thing is in focus & all the rest isn’t) I have been trying to figure out how to adjust that on my camera, but don’t know how yet. I just got real close on this one & zoomed in & this is how it came out.
Shut-Off Valve
This is the handle to shut-off the pipes that drain my biggest mixing tank. This tank holds 880 gallons…my biggest one.
Door Closer
This is the wheel that I have to turn to open/close the door on the bottom of one of my mixing tanks to get the product out. Wasn’t sure if I was gonna get to show you all this one…lost the memory card for my camera inbetween leaving work yesterday & getting home. I got back to work this morning & found it. It had fallen into a small hole on the inside of my center console in my truck.
Just Some Weeds
Just weeds growing up by the bottom of a telephone pole. Had to lay on my stomach to get this shot. LOL
Industrial Farm Building
I don’t think this place is used anymore other than some farm equipment being stored out front close to the street. I’m not a country boy (grew up in the city) so I have no idea what they actually did at this place when it was open & working.
Mixing Shaft
This is the end of the shaft that runs through one of my mixing tanks. Same thing, just wanted to show it in b/w too.
