Week 52! I made it through a whole year with this project. I took pictures of two of my nieces this week, so here is one from that photo session. They were sporting their favorite NFL team jersies. I'm working from a laptop this week, so this is SOOC.

A busy week and not much time for photography, so this was taken here at home. I applied a vintage effect to it with Color Efex Pro.

Really? I'll be sticking with my artificial tree, thank you. And it already has lights on it. (These sure do smell good though.)

December morning here in the Carolinas. This is off a country road just a couple miles from home.

The leaves have pretty much fallen off all the trees around here. It's looking like winter. Now, we just need some snow.

We've still got a little fall color hanging around, but it's not going to last much longer.

I took portraits of a friend this week. I've got a few of the pictures done and will be working on the rest this week. Hopefully, she'll be happy with them.

The pumpkin carving contest at Old Salem was this weekend. Lots of creative artists out there.

The Parkway

I have a weakness for photographing roads. When I'm out and see a scene I like that includes a road I often stop to take pictures. I don't know if it's the lines cutting through the landscape or the idea of where the road leads - I just know I like them. This one was taken about a week and a half ago on the Blue Ridge Parkway around mile post 416.

The fall color is coming along pretty nicely here in town - more and more trees with nice color. This was taken at the park I always go to for pictures - Reedy Creek Park. There was a lady fishing while I was there taking pictures, so that added to the scene. I thought it was funny that while I was taking a picture of her fishing a fish popped up to the surface of the water right in front of me causing the water to ripple.

Jullian Price Park on the Blue Ridge Parkway. This was taken at eye level from the trail I was hiking as I was heading back to my car.

Most of the trees are still green, but the color is beginning to come along at Reedy Creek Park.

I've photographed this bridge many times, but I think this is the first time with the 50mm lens I'm using for this project. This was taken yesterday, 9/29/12, at Boone Fork on the Blue Ridge Parkway. The leaves seem to be turning earlier this year to me. I don't remember seeing this much color in September before.

It's apple picking time. On at least one of my trips to the mountains this time of year I stop and get some fresh picked apples. They're the best. It's hard to eat the store bought apples after having these.

This isn't the image I had intended to use this week, but it will have to do. The memory card that had the image I planned to use decided to die on me somewhere between the county fair and home. I'll have to wait until next year to try to get the shot again. This is Providence United Methodist Church here in Charlotte. Another great little country church that is surrounded by the every-growing city.

37/52 - Was at Johnson C. Smith University to take pictures and was delighted by the inscriptions on the buildings pointing to God. You just don't see this kind of architecture and inscriptions on new buildings anymore.

Stopped by St. Paul Presbyterian again to try to come up with some decent pictures of it. It's a beautiful little church that I drive by all the time.

The dogwoods and other similar sized trees are beginning to change to their fall colors. It's early for that, so my guess is it's due to stress from the warmer than normal summer we've had. Either way it signals that fall is on the way. Can't wait!

One of my favorite things of summer is the Farmer's Market. Not only are the fruit and vegetables the best, but they also make great subjects to photograph. :)
