Oil Can Project – OCP17

When I started this project over a year ago, one of the first oil cans I found was a yellow, stout looking little can. Late last year I found the yellow can’s red big brother. The cans are pretty much the same but this one has a longer nozzle. I realize the color is unimportant in these B&W images but if you compare the two ‘stout’ images you can envision the color associated with each one.

Oil Can Project – OCP15

July? My last post related to this project was back in July 2018? Damn! The sad part of this comment is that I went on a spree a few months ago and found quite a lot of new subjects but the inspiration to photograph them never struck. Luckily, yesterday was another consignment shop excursion and I walked away with this beauty. I assembled my setup for capturing these images and went to town on all the oil cans I haven’t photographed. Fair warning… there will be more to come. 🙂

Taughannock Falls State Park

All the B&W processing I have been doing lately on my Disney pics had me wondering about a few of my old summer images from a trip to the state parks around Ithaca. I had posted a couple of images of Taughannock Falls after the trip but this particular view seemed to escape my notice. Maybe my current fascination with B&W images has also been fueled by my recent purchase of an Ansel Adams desk calendar… maybe?
