Look at your photos, photographers!
A nifty lesson I just learned, all by myself! I’ve been using the Vero social media app (mobile only, as far as I know, but my user name is @kellysedinger) as a sort of showcase for what I consider to … Continue reading
Street Photography: East Aurora, 9/17/2023
I’m finding myself more and more interested in street photography, or “streetscape”, as I prefer to call it. Here are a few examples from a walk I took last week around the village of East Aurora. I do hope someone … Continue reading

In low light….
A photographic experiment, using the knickknacks on my desk.

“Leave the shutters open a little, dear…I’d like to let some light in this dreary house.”
No, that’s not a quote from anything, so far as I’m aware, but we’ve been watching Bridgerton of late so I’ve got that kind of pseudo-Regency era rhythm in my ear. But I am thinking about shutters of late: one shutter in particular, … Continue reading

Amidst the goldenrod…

Thinking about Light
I took this quick photo of Carla and Rosa, enjoying the sun by the patio door, last week. It was just a quick “Hey, that’s cute, let me grab my phone” kind of thing; I didn’t put any effort into … Continue reading

At the Harbor
My Sunday Photography Walk was at Buffalo’s Outer Harbor again, with a side-trek into the Tifft Nature Preserve. Photos here…but these are my favorites from the day’s work: This next is my favorite photo from yesterday. This makes me think … Continue reading
Notes of an Emerging Photographer: The Ridge, again
Heavens, I think I may be actually getting better at this photography thing! I know it’s only been a short while with this camera, but I’m getting to the point already where carrying this camera around feels natural. Looking around … Continue reading
Announcing: HULK! no…VIJAY! no…wait, we’ll figure this out.
And who, you may ask, is this? Well, may I present the Formerly-Named “Hulk”. (We’re working on his new name. Stay tuned.) It’s funny how when you lose a dog, people wait a respectable amount of time before asking, “Hey, … Continue reading
