2013—Day 19—Silhouette

I never know when I’ll find something fascinating to photograph. Late this afternoon, I was at Mo’s (after playing hooky most of the day) because I had to retrieve my laptop. Rich was posting job announcements on the computer and when I looked up, he was silhouetted against the late afternoon sun shining through the window. I grabbed my camera and announced that he might make my blog. I didn’t take time to focus as well as I should. If you look closely, I think only a few hairs are in focus. But interestingly, there is lots of bokeh around the edges.

This is my second “auto” post, written on one day about a photograph taken that same day but scheduled for publication at a later date (i.e., photographed and written on Friday and posted on Saturday). I don’t know if I’ll find something spectacular to photograph today (Saturday—weird to project yourself into the next day) but if I do, I’ll schedule it for another day. I thought this shot was every bit as compelling as the hawk shot and deserved to make my blog.
