This little building doesn’t seem much larger than a chicken coop, but it has full-size doors, windows, old electrical hookups, and the remnants of a dirt driveway.  Perhaps it was a shop or lean-to attached to a no-longer-extant house?

So I was thinking that I might try to do some sort of cool the-shop-from-up-high type of shot today, but as I was on my way to the spot I was thinking of shooting from I saw this big mess of long springs all in a jumble.  I thought they looked interesting, so that’s what you get today :-)

There’s this place near my workplace that lined with all these old 1920′s and 1930′s tractors sitting out on “display”.   They looked particularly nifty in the snow and frost.  I couldn’t choose just one to show you today, so I decided that I’d go ahead and post these two for you.

I had my camera with me all day today as my family went to church, lunch, a birthday party with a little train yard, and then back home.   To top it off, today was an awesome wintry day with snow on the ground and hoarfrost covering all the trees and plants. I’d like to tell you that I was able to shoot a whole books worth of awesome photos, but for various reason I barely got two or three shots that turned out poorly.  At home, however, I went looking for interesting things to shoot again.  Not wanting to bore you with another shot of the dog, I went to the basement to see if there was something cool to shoot.  My wife is reorganizing her fabric collection.  What you see here is a small portion of her crafty hoard, but I do enjoy the color and pattern to these fabrics.

Didn’t get out of the house today, so I went around looking for something quasi-interesting just sort of hanging around the house…

I’ve rediscovered a passion for photography.  I’m sure it’s in no small part due to the fact that I work with a rather talented guy that does inspiring work.   So I decided to take on a project that will force me to spend quality time with my new Canon 7D. This is by no means a new idea, there are people all over the web doing this, but I will be shooting and publishing a photo a day for the next year.

To kick things off, I found myself in a local coffee shop today while waiting for my lovely wife.  I snapped a few frames off, and liked this one the best.
