View From The Roadside

This is the companion blog to my Flickr gallery (http://www.flickr.com/photos/viewfromtheroadside/).

As I take pictures and add them to Flickr, I will pick out some of them and write a little more about them here. The reasons for picking an image could be anything from an interesting story about how I came to take that picture, to a new technique I’ve tried in Photoshop. I will go back over the existing pictures from time to time as well.

While a picture should be able to stand all on it’s own, I often find the story about how that picture came about, both in a technical and anecdotal sense, can be just as fascinating, and can sometimes even help appreciate the picture more.

Elsewhere on this site will find galleries of more of the pictures.
