Day 363
by Andrei on Oct.14, 2010, under project 365
This image is almost the same as I saw it up in the sky a couple of hours ago. It wasn’t going to be the image for today, but just like many others in the past, I ended up liking it the most. I was planning to go outside and shoot something with available light, something, anything. I drove around for a few minutes and stopped on the side of the road. I hadn’t even seen the sky. As I turned though, I saw the color of the sun through the smoky clouds. It’s been cloudy and rainy the entire day. There was no hope of even remembering that there is a star called Sun behind all the clouds. Yet for a brief moment, the sun shone through a thinning of the clouds and I shot this image. I went on with my walk and drive and ended up with nothing that I liked.
I decided to head home. It was already dark and I didn’t know what I had “in the can”. I thought I’d look around and see if I find something to edit to my liking and planned on going out again if I needed to. I liked the first image quite a bit and I’m bringing it to you here.
When I was a child, I liked imagining what the clouds were looking like. What do they look like to you?
Come on, be a child again…
Day 267
by Andrei on Jul.10, 2010, under project 365
I used my cheap camera + stock lens on this one. The most interesting is the effect the polarizing filter had on the sky (sunset camera left, obviously). Day 267 and stubbornly counting.
[Note: I never like the exported final images on web resolution and sRGB color space, they look like supermarket prints. Sorry web viewers.]
Day 230

I shot these amazing backlit clouds on my way home. The structure is the Portman Bridge over the Fraser River, which will become the west bound of Trans Canada highway. They’re building a new bridge for the eastbound and a bunch of connections. The clouds were amazingly lit as the sun set below the horizon and with as much rain as we’re still getting here (in June!) I knew I had to grab a shot, for such sight is rare. I’m behind in posting the images, but I shoot them every day. Thanks for the patience and thanks for stopping by.
