Walking The Path

Things That Attract My Eye – Part 21

This posts images come from a variety of places:

  • Local walks
  • A Car Wash
  • An Urban Sketcher’s Wollongong Sketch-meet at Port Kembla
  • My backyard
  • Sydney CBD

Some of the subjects I photograph may end being reference photos for sketches, watercolour, line and wash or oil paintings.

Even though I don’t photograph a lot with DSLR camera’s these days, I like to ‘keep my eye in’ with my phone camera. At some point, I will purchase a mid to high range compact camera that can fit in a suit pocket that I can carry anywhere.

Till next time!

Things That Attract My Eye! – 2

One of the types of subjects that I have always enjoyed photographing since I took up Photography in 1982 is the ‘everyday things’ that we come into contact with.

Prior to taking up photography, I certainly was not aware how beautiful mundane subjects were. Photography created a new awareness within me and since I took up sketching and painting, this awareness of my surroundings has deepened.

It really is amazing at just how many beautiful subjects there are if we only would take the time to notice.

I’ve included some images below that I hope you will find as interesting and as beautiful as I do. All were taken in 2022.

Till next time!
