It may be work, it may be play, it may be near, it may be away. So here is the challenge - to shoot and post one photograph a day on this site. These photographs are a kind of diary of things I find interesting. I am also thinking that there will be days when I am unable to shoot, so on those infrequent occasions, I will post a photograph done on another day, but one that still feels important to me. - Ken Spencer

Desperation
So I was sitting at dinner and suddenly realized that because I had been working around in the yard, I had not taken any photos today. Oh man! What am I going to do to find a blog post? I was absent-mindedly staring at the candle in the middle of the dining room table, and was amazed to see how beautiful the flame was, and that if I looked really closely, I could see some really interesting details. Like the wick, most of it black, but the tip of it was bright orange, and if I looked really closely, I could see the end of it was bubbling! So I grabbed the macro lens, and here is the photo that saved my day. Please click on this to see it in greater detail.
I like this. There's something about its simplicity that reminds me of a minimalist painting. Primary colors, lots of visual POW!
