Well it has been a bit of a tough week. Work has been very busy, I got news that my brother was unexpectedly laid off his job and my one brother-in-law has a tumor on his kidney and next month they will be removing that kidney. So I think it is time to find a little inspiration for my pictures. It has been a long time since I have photographed my ABC's.
I have always found alleys a great spot for photographs. This one is in Old Strathcona. I thought it would look good in b/w.
Have a great weekend everyone
The alley leads our eyes right through the picture in a really neat way. Nice clarity of reflection in the puddles, too. So sorry to hear of your trying week. Photography can really be a nice distraction, as well as a good outlet for expression...
So sorry to hear about all of these issues. You are right, when that camera is in your hands and you are taking photos, nothing else in the world exists.
Oh gosh I'm so sorry your brother was laid off his job. That is difficult and also really sorry your brother-in-law has a tumor on his kidney and I hope his surgery goes well. And nice shot of this alley.
A very tough week. Let us hope and pray that the "other door opens" for your brother and surgery goes well for your b-i-l.
Lovely shot, nice leading lines.
Great B&W shot, nice perspective and reflections. So sorry to hear of your bad week, hope your brother finds work soon, and hope all goes well for your brother in law.
You certainly had a difficult week; I hope these issues are resolved as well as they possibly can be. I love the light and reflections and general feeling of urban winter in this shot. I like alleys too. The backs of things are so often more interesting than the fronts! Fav for me.
Sorry to hear about your family's issues. I hope that your brother finds work fast and that your brother in law's tumor can be removed and it will be all there is.
I'm so sorry to hear about your brother and brother-in-law. When it rains, it pours! But I know your faith will carry all of you through this trial. Saying my prayers tonight with them in mind.
Oh, so sorry to hear about your brother and brother in law's job and medical problems. You are all in our thoughts and prayers for better days ahead for them both. I LIKE this is B&W. Makes it look so "awful weather like". Those puddles? Melting snow -- Already. Winter has just begun.
Oh this is a wonderful capture and i love the idea of an ABC series. How fun..will look forward to it. Sorry for your troubles...and wishing you and your brother in law the best.
So sorry to hear you have family troubles at present. Photography is great therapy in times of stress. Brilliant shot and excellent for b&w, it gives it a gritty feel.
So very sorry to hear of your family problems... life is a trial at times. I do hope everything improves for your family very soon!
The photograph is excellent and love it in black and white ♥
Nice shot! Gives the impression that it could be spring, what with that melting snow. Just a wicked tease. So sorry to hear that life is rough right now - good luck and I'm hoping things will improve for your loved ones quickly.
i'm sorry to hear about your brother in law's sickness and your brother's losing his job, tough at this time of year, too. i hope things will get better for both of them and their families.
so much ice already and it's only mid-november. keep shooting, brian.
