Hi all, new to BlueSky. I am a hobby photographer/videographer in Fort Collins, Colorado, USA. Audio is also a fun thing that I play around with. I went to community college for TV Broadcast and Live Sound Reinforcement classes and got a BS in Journalism and Media Communications. I love history too.

I'll start on this month's #photochat.

A1: IMO I'm an "intentional" photographer both professionally & as a hobby. On my studio work I plan the details in advance including documentation, call sheets, mood boards, etc. On the film side I will select a subject, camera & film to go out with.

Welcome to November's BSKY #photochat! Let's get the conversation going. Remember to put the hashtag in your response.

Q1: Excluding everyday snapshots / cell phone photos do you primarily plan your photoshoots in advance or capture moments spontaneously? Or both?

Nights like this are the best. All the trouble of the world is momentarily set aside while we're collectively marveling at the pretty lights and nature together. This is how it's supposed to be. Life, I mean. Shared joy and all. 🙂

If you are in northern Colorado, get out there and see the Aurora. It is pretty awesome.

Behind the scenes of the Everyday Science TV Show. The show had students from Poudre School District in #FortCollins #Colorado working with Brian Jones of Colorado State University's Little Shop of Physics on hands-on science experiments.

Attention Alphabetters!
Mon 10 Nov is the start of Week T and the theme for the #AlphabetChallenge is Television. Caption your pic with the name of a TV programme. Pic doesn’t need to relate to the plot- just to the title. A tricky one this week - so get creative! Use the # below and have fun😊

Shadows from sunlight come through an old glass window and fall on the ceiling. Leaves and trees from outside are visible as shadows.

The light is constantly changing in different rooms making for interesting photos throughout the day.

There are many different shadows and lights patterns created by the holiday lights.

Drawing group this morning with a few friends was a nice way to relax.

I drew the cover of a book depicting George Sorel who I had not heard of. He apparently was a political commentator with some rather extreme views. Not my kind of person.

My mom and I made a stop for lunch in #Longmont #Colorado today at one of our favorite Sushi places, Sakura Japanese Cuisine. It has been a fantastic place to eat with amazing food.

Contrails from engines on planes are lit up by the full moon in the night sky. Parts of trees are lit up from street lights and the moon, while other parts are in shadow.

This was a good test of Night Mode in the Pixel camera app on Android.

Cafe Paperika restaurant in #Denver #Colorado.

Text from the shop windows was being cast as shadows on the mural of a desert scene. The shadows were moving along the wall fast in the setting sun.

A 2013 photo that I called "Lines of Power".

The photo is of the shadows of a chain link fence going over power utility lines at a baseball field in #FortCollins #Colorado. This side of the fence was a concrete walkway.

A long shadow of me in the setting sun in City Park, #FortCollins, #Colorado several weeks ago. The fall colors were just starting to turn on many of the trees.
