Lessons Learned:
- About 50 ways on how now to do something.
- I did learn that I need a circular polarizer for this one.
- Failure can be tiring.
With this blog I have begun a journey to improve my photography skills. My goal is to take photos everyday, and post my favorite photo from that day on this blog. So far, I have learned a lot, and try to share my experiences. Many of you have made comments on the blog, via email, or when you see me in person. I really appreciate all of them. I learn a lot from each of you. I hope that you will join me in my journey, and help me along the way. I have so much to learn.

In sepia, that would look like vintage, especially if you added some noise or something.
But yeah. I had a pretty uninspired day too.
I wonder how this would look with a wider apeture setting like 2.8 or more? Then either leave in or crop out the bokeh. I really like your ideas.
I like the junk drawer shot. Not everything didn't work.
not sure if i mentioned steve - but i prefer pictures that "dont work" - not sure if you're including this one in that bracket, but i love irregularities or off contrast pictures. out of focus or strange in some way. i really like this one and cant see any flaws - or what i would consider a flaw, which might only be a boring or static shot. i like the close up too
actually, kinda reminds me of a photo i took of leaves many years ago - maybe i can find it and post it
Andrew,
I did try sepia, but didn't like it as well.
James,
I did try a wider aperture, but didn't have my filter on at the same time. I should go back and try that again.
Nicky,
Thank you.
Ben,
I know what you mean about photographs that don't work. (Especially other peoples photos that don't work. haha). I do consider this as a photo that didn't work, but I'm still not sure why. I think it might be all the galvanized nails that cut down on the reflection. Perhaps a bunch of nails that are not galvanized may be more interesting. I'm not sure.
Thank you all for your comments. They all gave me further thought. Perhaps this was much more productive than I first thought.
Steve
That is a very creative picture! There's something magic in nails and screws, isn't it?
