This was an experiment combining two 52Frames challenges using the same scene at roughly the same time-ish taken three or four weeks apart using different lighting techniques.

This one is likely a re-do candidate, as I wasn't getting what I wanted. But I tried it, and it's different from the last low-key frame.

52Frames: Roll of 24 - Injection Point: Shot during a post-storm walk in and around Centennial Olympic Park. The challenge: You can only use a single "roll" of frames (24). The tower aligned with the Olympic ring, creating a syringe-like silhouette.

This picture was 21 of 24.

52Frames - Chaos: EC - Composite- Things Fall Apart. No composite here. I found capturing chaos quite the challenge. Here, I have more chaos in the first one, but mostly a destructive mess.

52Frames - Unexplored, EC: Involve a Stranger: Ponce Serenade. I explored the Beltline near Ponce City Market, walked a few miles, and then stumbled upon this woman playing the piano in a top-level parking area of the market.

52Frames: Complementary Colors: Cachée. Mardi Gras is Feb. 17, so it's Carnivale season. This is a linguine bust wearing my mask from Venice and necklace from Murano, highlighted with dried lemons. Laissez les Bons Temps Rouler!

52Frames - Get Low, EC: Leading Lines - Overhead.

A spur-of-the-moment trip to the local gelato shop turned into an opportunity to admire light fixtures that might typically be overlooked.

52Frames: Rule of Thirds, EC -Symmetry. A (crowded) day at the @highmuseumofart made for a fun day of picture practice. None of these meet the extra challenge and #4 doesn't meet the challenge at all, but I kinda dig it.
