Area 53 - Photo 47 - Arachnophovember

I know I did a photo of a spider already this year, however, that was just a random pic I took after I bought my macro lens. This little, strike that, this big spider was found on the swing set of my buddy's kid. It was huge. At least as far as spiders we see around here goes.
I tried my best to get a good shot of him, he was a very patient model...lol.
My pic of the week is underbelly of our friend actually hanging from a chair.
I love all the colour in this photo. I've posted two others of the little guy so you can see what he looks like. Also, the other photo is of the University and Ouellette intersection on a dead Monday night in downtown Windsor, but it still turned out pretty cool for very little effort.
Enjoy!
See you next week.

Area 53 - Photo 46 - Beauty Above Us

I've been out of town for a conference hoping to take some cool photos of something but time contraints have allowed no time for creativity.

However, the chandelier in the hotel ballroom kept grabbing my attention so on the last day of the conference I found a couple minutes to get in there between sessions to snap a couple pics.

I added a little red to the natural colour of the ceiling which is actually tan.

I can't explain how big this chandelier is exactly, but if I had to guess, it's roughly a few feet in diametre.

Hopefully you don't find this photo of the week to boring.

See you next week.

Area 53 - Photo 45 - Blast From The Past

This week I visited what turned out to be a really unique auto antique shop out in Lasalle at the corner of Matchette and Laurier. I actually went and knocked on the door to ask permission to take some photos of the cars in their side lot, the woman told me they don't allow photos inside, but that I was more than welcome to take pictures from outside the fence.

So that I did, after a nice conversation with Diane, who even told me some of the best times of day to take some shots, the best being during sunrise.

She was the woman I met when I was leaving thinking the shop was closed. I told her what it was all about and gave her the address to this blog, I hope she stops by.

I'm sure her name was Diane, but I got wrapped up in trying to get a few shots through the tight fencing filled with ivy and weeds, to the point I'm questioning myself if that was for sure her name. If you're reading this, please correct me.
I hope you like the pics if you see them.
