"Nothing is so often irretrievably missed as a daily opportunity". ~Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach
------------------------------------------------SmugMug's DailyPhotos Community is a wonderful group of talented and friendly photographers, whom I first met during my "30 Days Hath September" jaunt http://bit.ly/2i0Cxn. That experience has inspired me to keep shooting every day and to improve my photographic skills. This gallery is of photos I will be taking and posting each day, unless time is against me, when I'll be posting a recently taken image. Comments welcome!

Thanks for all the feedback on my mini-tale of Smitty, the lost rookie.  That was a totally ad hoc, seat of the pants creation, based on a handful of photos taken at a (truly) scary, abandoned complex.  The feedback tells me there could be some interest and some fun to be had with a serialized, daily photo, drama.  <br />
<br />
But only The Shadow knows for sure...
  • A turgid canal ran through the abandoned property, and right under the building.  We dragged it for two days, but no sign of Smitty.  I have a feeling this case will be cold for a long time.<br />

  • I knew I was trouble when O'Hara called me over and said "We sent the rookie upstairs to retrieve evidence 45 minutes ago - you'd better go see what happened."  <br />
<br />
O'Hara didn't make eye contact with me once.<br />

  • I couldn't find a trace of that damn rookie anywhere.<br />
But I found this.<br />
<br />
Heck of a coincidence.<br />

This and the next few days' dailies come from a near-abandoned industrial complex in my town.  It is generally a "target-rich" environment.

I hope that in this day, and all that follow, you find ample reasons to give thanks.  <br />

    Best use of selective color I've seen in quite a while. Like the light vignette, too.
