It Is A New Year

Seems like I have slipped on posting new stuff here. Well with the new year and all maybe I should make a resolution to.........wait no....I am not really into that whole thing. For the most part I think I should do things because I either need to or want to and I should start no matter what time of the year it is. Not to say anything against anyone who does do them because ultimately making a choice to start doing something that improves ones quality of life is a good thing and if the start of a new year is something that works for you then that is great and you should definitely do it.
One thing that is nice about the new year is that it is a good time frame to look over to see what all was accomplished in the last year and set goals for the next year. For me that is slightly different than resolutions which are usually about making some type of change in your life, where this is more goal setting to build upon certain things I already do (maybe this makes a lot more sense in my head but hey I do photography not writing) . One thing for me is I can look back across the last year and see that I have had the opportunity to do much more portrait photography than in previous years and my goal for this year would be to do much much more than the last year. There are several other things I need to work on and get better at doing as life moves forward but I will not bore you with all that.....at the moment.

So all that talk about doing portraits this last year and the first photos I am going to put up this year are Architectural. The Architect I used to work for designed this building  and wants some photos of it so I went out the other evening to take a look and take a few pictures of it. Theses were taken just after the sun went behind the mountain, so there is still a lot of light in the sky and it also provides for nice even lighting.

So there you have it my first blog post of 2012!
