D-275 Where the road may lead . . .

Sometimes the path you're on is not as important as the direction you're heading. ~Kevin Smith


The daily shoot: #ds319 Make a photograph of a vanishing point today made by converging lines.

Pretty simple and straight forward. Before I went for my run today thought I'd take advantage of the sun, I had to wait a few minutes for traffic to stop, walk to the middle of the road and get low. Worked really fast only got 3 shots in.
What direction are you heading?

and this one because I really liked the "lines" in it.
This is for the birds
I loved the color of the sky today, it was a perfect fall day.
I also wanted to mention that I used the Nikon kit lens, 18-55, that I got when we bought our D-80 a couple of years ago. I Hardly ever reach for the kit lenses but after today's captures it might be worth a second look next time.

Both shots are very nice, but I really like the telephone pole too.

The thing that immediately catches my eye are the contrasting colours, the warmth of the sun reflected in the road and the blue of the sky. There is also an interesting feeling given by the apparently skewed horizon that everything is not quite as it seems. An interesting shot.

I see what caught your eye with the second one, that is the same sort of thing that tends to catch me too.

(As an aside, I really hate blogger, in the last few days it has eaten comments I made on several sites. I commented on these photos last night and got an error when I tried to post).

Love the perspective on the first shot. I do have a liking for the blue sky, and I like the second shot for that reason.
