Bike Tire, originally uploaded by ValerieMorrisonPhotography.com.
okay, the title sucks and unless someone wants to play name that photo, i got nothing.
so i’ve been M.I.A. here and there decided to get off my rump and make something out of nothing. took a few photos of my bike and this is the er, um, tire. yeah that’s right. more photos on flickr.

Pillars of the Earth, originally uploaded by ValerieMorrisonPhotography.com.
while my internet connection was out i was able to look through some old photos on my external hard drive and found this photo taken last year in NYC. i’m far from a post processing queen, but i tried to do something with it to give it an interesting look.

this was taken last weekend on a spur of the moment trip. i didn’t take my time paying attention to details and that’s why the sky is blown out. when that happens converting the photo to black and white is a great cover up as seen in this photo. the color version can be found here. if i were you i wouldn’t click on it.

i was standing behind this guy while waiting on the train. thought he’d make an interesting photo.
also this is probably the best way to photograph new yorkers: when they’re not looking.

Fosterfields Living Historical Farm, originally uploaded by ValerieMorrisonPhotography.com.visited the Fosterfields Living Historical Farm today. it’s only 30 minutes from home and it felt like we were in a different state. enjoyed it.
i thought it was funny that the only animal we got to pet was a cat, i wanted to ride a horse.
this is an HDR photo. too bad i’m not good with photoshop or i could do something with the boring sky. i may revisit this photo when i have time to learn how to fix it.

smoke and mirrors, originally uploaded by ValerieMorrisonPhotography.com.
two things going on here:
1. i was practicing my street photography technique; and
2. learning how to convert color images to b&w.
i hate PP, but sometimes it’s a necessary evil. i used Nik software for the conversion.
i actually like the image itself. i was focused on the man on the phone, then cigarette guy appeared in the frame as i pressed the shutter.
i think he adds something to the photo. what? i’m not sure.

george washington bridge, originally uploaded by ValerieMorrisonPhotography.com.taken from fort lee, new jersey. a walk (run, bike ride) across the GWB to 178th street in new york is the least expensive way into the city.
i don’t know how come there weren’t more people on the bridge, it’s free. a lovely view and a sign or two to call a number first if one is feeling depressed. it’s very easy to jump.
