‘Yoko Said’ aka Wind: WPC

Did you ever watch “Mad About You”? Well, this ’90s sitcom starring Paul Reiser and Helen Hunt had an episode guest starring Yoko Ono. She’s hired Reiser’s character, a filmmaker, to film the wind. It doesn’t go particularly well, but “Yoko said” so he keeps trying.

I didn’t actually have any major problem photographing the wind–representing the element of air–but I couldn’t help laughing about that episode as I attempted the task.

Getting all four elements into one picture proved illusive. (Hey, Yoko only wanted one!) But I think I’ve got all four between these photos–with at least two elements in each picture!

And I even managed to get three out of four in this one with the long grass blown over by the wind on the banks of the Hudson river.

Ruins on the Hudson: CB&W

This week’s black and white photo challenge had an interesting theme: natural ground. I realized most of my photos don’t prominently feature the ground. I suppose that’s because many of my photos are of my food, are macro, or are in NYC–where natural ground is a bit scarce. 

New Horizon: Weekly Photo Challenge

I’ve been thinking about trying a weekly photo challenge. It seems like a good way to prioritize my new(ish) hobby without being overwhelming. The problem is, most of the photography challenges I find seem a bit overwhelming–I’m pretty busy with school, work, and my other hobbies.
