I'm glad I took another look.

I am too. That's really cool.

I took this at Hoover dam a few weeks ago. It's a bronze sculpture of one of the workers in the 1930's.

A little photo expedition for the morning sunrize.
Was pulling out the driveway, when thought that, hey, I havent decided where to go yet.
So went to closeest place with good view to the east.
Didnt have any color in sunrise due to heavy cloud cover.

(doah.. I need to pay better attention to that level indicator.)

Was quite a solitary outing.
Stood there listening to the geese and ducks and redwing blackbirds.

and saw this nearby this
"Sign Of The Times"

I have to give some perspective here so the Great Miami River from back in February:

And then just this past Thursday night into Friday morning saw sheets of rain coming down (Miamisburg got over 3.5"). After seeing some of the river level from Art Institute, I had to ride over and get a better view. The river was so high I couldn't go out where I did last time for the above picture and instead had to stand further over just for this:

I noticed these geese cleaning themselves but stood in the wrong spot or wasn't fast enough on the shutter to get the wings flapping at the right time

Some no doubt expensive artwork on the farm of a local Oral Surgeon and horse lover.

Sometimes one gets more then they originally saw when reviewing pictures and now I cant unsee what I see.

I like.....

 

[dorkburger]

Thanks. One of those rare moments where I quickly found a nice shot when arriving.
I took a series of shots and a few other views from the same spot and said to myself "I can go home now". Thankfully I reviewed my pics before leaving - i went back for a few more which were better after breaking off a pesky small dead branch that was junking up the background. Those plants were growing in a knot hole on a tree leaning into a lake

As much of springtime that we have around here.

Tried some close focus with old Minolta 35-70 lens adapted for use on Panosonic Micro FourThirds camera.

Nice one Dave, I like the selective focus.

Also, thanks Ryder.

Cool shot of the grate, Glen.
Truck or tractor grill? Industrial oven?

 

[dorkburger]

Thanks Steve, it's an old truck. A late 40s International I think.
There's one piece of stainless trim hanging on, and there were a few on the ground as well.

Went downtown for a walk to clear the head after work. Of the several I shot, only a small handful were worth keeping - doesn't help to be too far away I guess. Nice thing is the river levels are dropping again.

And no, this is not an island around the pylon

This is not nearly as cool as what you guys have been posting, but here goes.

This is Maddigan (Maddie) our terrier mix. we walked to an old T-ball field my kids played at nearly 25 years ago. Home plate on the left and the tattered dugout behind her.
