Do you give yourself photography assignments? I've been blogging for over 19 years, and I find myself looking for particular subjects when I'm out running errands, or sometimes even just for a reason to go somewhere. Of course, it doesn't always work out, especially if the weather interferes.
After being pretty much snowed-in last Monday, I drove to Harrisonburg on Tuesday with the idea of doing some grocery shopping and taking some pictures. I headed for the library downtown because I had read there was a new mural there. Unfortunately, the library was closed due to the weather. One thing to understand about living in a mountain/valley region is that the roads might be clear in town, but workers who live in the nearby hills can’t get there because the roads are icy or still covered in snow. (Oh, the confusion this causes to parents of school-age children! “Why are the schools still closed? My street is fine.”)
I took a picture of Asbury Church across the street, and also a street scene. There were no pedestrians to be seen.
Not far away, I spotted a new mural on Liberty Street. I parked the car and walked to the side of the building to take pictures.
It wasn’t until I enlarged this picture today that I saw that there was a reflection on the window. That must be a plastic storm window because the reflected dumpster is distorted.
The mural continues along the front of the building.

The murals are lovely. A good benefit from going to town.
ReplyDelete...I take photos of things that interest me and I'm interested in lots of things.
ReplyDeletePretty views. I like murals! I also like how shadowed snow is blue.
ReplyDeleteThe murals are very nice. I do give myself photography projects to do. It often gets done without anyone knowing about it
