I often ask my photographer friends on the phone, “Hey, what are you doing photographically?”

The idea is to trade ideas, think creatively, and to encourage each other in our efforts to bring more to our photographic games.

I come to this party ahead of the curve, since I am a photojournalist my trade, but I am often trying to get out of that box and make different images, which I hope have some element of fine art to them. Here are a couple of items I shot this week around our patch of green in Oklahoma.
