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

The Green Ball
I went over to the Apple store today to look at some stuff, and when I came out of the store I saw this light in the parking lot against the sky and the dark clouds. The surprise was, after composing the picture and shooting one frame, that the globe showed up green in color! The green is most likely there because there is not a conventional lightbulb inside - it is probably a gas discharge tube, like a florescent bulb. It looks white to our eyes, but green to the sensor in the camera. Anyhow, I loved the contrast of nature, and this perfect man made sphere. A bit surreal perhaps.
Very cool - especially with the dark clouds & red sunset.
