<p>#18: Ominous.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve had some crazy clouds the last week or so. Very interesting to photograph.</p>

<div>#19: Converging Lines Pt. 2.</div>
<div>Must be the graphic designer in me but I love finding lines like this. The wall on the right is within arms reach while the left side is the ground and the wall about 20 feet away.</div>

<p>#11: Tilt Shift Toy</p>
<p>One of the defining features of tilt shift photos is a small depth of field (lots of blurring) that makes photos of a large scale look like toy models. I kind of took that in a different direction here. Oh well, it&#8217;s funny to me. Reagan laughed at it too.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.mattshumate.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/l-1600-1200-7671e1b9-eec3-4e1e-b3b2-59b60d8da763.jpeg" rel="lightbox[275]"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-364" src="http://blog.mattshumate.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/l-1600-1200-7671e1b9-eec3-4e1e-b3b2-59b60d8da763.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>#12: Abstract Bokeh</p>
<p>Bokeh is the term for out of focus objects in a photo (usually the background). With my normal camera it&#8217;s pretty easy to accomplish. With an iPhone, with it&#8217;s automatic focus, it&#8217;s a little tougher. I had to trick the camera in to focusing on the background so the foreground would bokeh nicely. I&#8217;m really happy with the result.</p>
