Imagesbyoliver: The sign of a good day

: Images by Oliver Blog :

Hello and welcome to my photo-blog.

I want to first say thank you for taking the time to check me out.

I started this blog to fill a gap in the way I show my photography to family, friends and potential clients. I have a few other sites were I display my work, however none are geared toward me documenting my thoughts on photography and sharing the things I experience on a daily basis. I shoot all types of photography. Sometimes I think I am addicted. I have countless numbers of pictures saved on my hard drive that would otherwise go unseen. I have so much to share and will take on the task of getting the highlights of my photographic career here on this blog.

I don't have time to maintain several different blogs for all the aspects of my photography so you will see a mixture of photos posted to this blog. It will be business mixed with a bit of personal. There is so much I want to get out and I don't want to hinder myself too much with organization (must be the artist in me). You can rest assured it will all be about my love for photography.

Feel free to leave comments on the photos you like. I would like input to keep this thing interactive. I would also like to share tips with photographers to give insight on how I continue to perfect my craft (it is a constant learning process).

That is all for now. Check back regularly for updates...

The sign of a good day

As I parked my truck this morning I noticed a white Dove sitting on the chained linked fence just ahead of me. I thought this was a rather strange sight to see in such an urban area and took it to be a sign of a good day.

Being that I am always armed with my camera I decided to start the day off with some pictures of this marvelous sight. I didn’t think I would get a good photo contemplating the bird flying away just as I moved in for the shot. To my surprise the bird stayed there perched on that fence as solid as a man in his recliner on Super Bowl Sunday.

I was very excited to be able to snap of a couple of good pictures to share.

As I inched closer the dove continued to stay calm - there was a moment when I felt like we were old friends.
