I’ve had an obsession lately about taking photos of mundane actions of my life lately.  Between pumping gas and doing dishes, now withdrawing money at the ATM.  I don’t know why, but I really enjoy capturing these things that we don’t think twice about.  Maybe its the idea of taking our time and actually being in the moment.  Which we almost never do.

Trying to save money by eating at home.  I’m sure my memory is wrong, but I swear quitting smoking was easier than this.  Anyway I actually set lights up for this, and then broke down and actually washed the dishes.  Super exciting I know, but at least its not clouds.

Sky shot 2 day’s in a row?  Whoops, couldn’t help myself today, the giant cross ripping through the sky.

I think everyone in New York saw some crazy weather today.  With stories about hail the size of golf balls, and just crazy weather in general.  I watched it pour rain on one side of me and be sunny and dry on the other.   It was like a wall of water.

The culmination of my not-so-entirely lazy Sunday, and to some extent the epitome.  After waking up early(for me) and going climbing, I laid outside and watched the clouds go by.  So as usual here is a snapshot of my day, I love the way the sun seeps through the leaves.  If you get a chance check it out full size, the detail in the middle leaf is awesome.

I think we all know that I can do better.  They can’t all be rock stars right?

All my time seems to be spent on the road, which is why most of the photos I take tend to be taken near them, or in this case on them.  Really wanted to take a photo that focused on the heavy fog we were seeing tonight, and decided to take it to a place where there wasn’t a fixed light source.  I took 25 photos in this spot and each one of them looks completely different, because the light source changed each time.  I’m  want to post some other once, because there were a lot of great ones tonight.  But now its 4 am and its time for sleep.

In a strange mood lately, wasn’t in the mood to take another night shot, so I grabbed something in my room and took a still life.

Went outside to climb for the first time since April.  I’m still not very good, but the people I went with are.  So I did a little climbing and a little picture taking.  This was the best from the day.
