Picture of the Week

This week’s prompt was Wabi Sabi. It’s a Japanese concept that finds beauty in the abandoned. We were headed to a nearby city and took a wrong turn and came across this abandoned building. I loved the initial shot but it was too clean. Then I edited it in my phone and I love the results.

This was one of those shots I wasn’t even planning on taking. I’m glad I had my phone to capture the geese playing in the water. We live near the coast and our town is at the very back of the Indian River Inlet. Because of a storm spinning off the coast, the winds blew the water into the bay, thus the water is much higher than even a normal high tide. The water behind the geese really is a parking lot most of the time, but now an extension of the back bay. I stopped to see the high tide and coastal flooding and captured this picture of the geese playing in the water that is normally a parking lot.

Wagamon Pond Dam, Milton, DE

This week’s prompt was curves. I played with a bunch of pictures, but like this one the best. There are quite a few of these curved dam structures here in lower Delaware. The one in Milton is very accessible. With most of these dams, the water above the dam is freshwater and the water below is backwater from either the Delaware Bay or Atlantic Ocean.
