A long weekend with mild weather--a good opportunity to browse around West Hartford Center and stop for coffee at Barnes and Noble.

...is to fill 52 themes, one a week for the year. Some weeks, maybe I'll try to find several photos to fit the themes. Others, I may spend more time trying to perfect one that seems best to represent the theme. Three years of a photo-a-day opened my eyes, now I want to hone my skills.

Hello Bobbie! I am a new followed to your blog, as I have started a similar challenge myself. I am not following any specific guidelines, just posting 1 picture every day.
ReplyDeleteI did have a question though...when you take pictures of people, do you warn them ahead of time? hahaha I always feel like people will be surfing the web some day and stumble across a picture of themselves.
Looking forward to following you, and would love to have a follower :)

Coffee and a friend who wants more, Oh and Chocolate!

I could use the coffee now, it's awful outside!! Nice shot. Hope you are feeling better.
ReplyDeleteYou captured alot of leading lines in this, cool!
ReplyDeleteThis photo has a nostalgic feel to it; the warmth of an old print found at the bottom of a dresser drawer. Did you post edit or was it the lighting of the store?
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a perfect way to spend a Sat afternoon...I think I am heading to our Borders tomorrow! :) Your processing gives this a warm and welcoming feeling!
ReplyDelete@Steven: the photo was taken with my iPhone using the Hipstamatic app, which adds the filters and borders. I didn't do any extra processing beyond that.
ReplyDeletegreat photo bobbie. such a peaceful relaxing feel to it
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! A peaceful time captured with a nostalgic look.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo , Barnes & Noble one of my fave places.....I really hope it stays open..
ReplyDelete@Laura Jean: if it's a distand sort of shot like this taken in a public place, I don't make my presence known--sort of urban stealth photography. If it were a close up or something taken in a private setting, I'd ask permission.
ReplyDeleteThis isn't fair. First Esther shows us her Kindle, and now you are sharing about coffee and B&N. Books, books and coffee. I'm soooo jealous of your both. ;-D It is a great shot and I love the mood it presents. Thanks also for dropping by my blog.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Kim...just came from Es's blog. It must be reading day? :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat processing on this.
The processing is perfect on this photo...along with the flooring, it makes for a very vintage mood. Makes me wish for a trip to the bookstore (we've been snowbound for 2 days so no shopping trip for me)
ReplyDeletefine beginning, it seems to become a very, very interesting blog
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you!
Tony
OH, I have a $50 gift card from Barnes and Noble and you just made the urge to use it much greater! Nice shot; I like the app you're using on your iPhone.
ReplyDeleteA cozy cup and a book!
ReplyDeleteNot a photographer here, but enjoy the blog.
Thanks
Corinne
I think you gave the photo a bit old-fashioned look in that coloring and I like it. I'm joining this years challenge to but with no press to produce all 365
ReplyDeleteChristina, sweden
The thing that I like about taking pictures with an iphone is that you can take candid pictures like this one. When I get out my big camera, everyone freezes. Your shot is a great candid shot.
ReplyDeleteThere is a lot to be said for stealth, this is a great slice of life and as ever you used the perfect app.
ReplyDeleteFeel old school as I still like to go into a book store. Love the feel of this image.
