I Can’t View Your Posts!

For quite a while now I have not been able to view any posts of the blogs I follow. When I click on Blogs/Follow, I get a blank screen. I was hoping one of you would know what I need to do to fix the problem. I would greatly appreciate your help.

An Impressive Sky Show

Today the sky put on quite a show. Here are some photos I shot.

Turned around and saw this happening behind me. (photo below)

An Uknown Statue

After the concert Sunday, on my way back to the car I captured this. I was a bit rushed because my brother had to go somewhere else, so I thought this photo came out well considering I was rushed. I didn’t get to read the description on the statue so I have no idea who this is.

An Evening at the Majestic

Last week was a crazy week, I wasn’t able to upload any photos for you all. Sunday I attended my little brother’s Youth Orchestras of San Antonio (YOSA) at the Majestic Theater in San Antonio, Texas. I took a few photos of the interior for  you all to enjoy.

R.I.P. Nathaniel Barker

I just got news, a few minutes ago, that a good friend of mine, Nathaniel Barker, passed away from complications related to Spina Bifida. He was 22.

Nathaniel was truly “the happiest young man who ever lived.” His positive attitude towards life was not only inspirational for me, but for others as well. I will miss your smile, your sense of humor and hearing how you are the #1 Spurs fan. You will be greatly missed, my friend. Thank you for being a positive influence in my life. Your friend Adrian Duque.

In memory of him, I have posted this yellow ribbon. The yellow ribbon symbolizes Spina Bifida, the disability that Nathaniel had. Spina Bifida happens to be the same disability I have, so this ribbon means a lot to me.

 

A Photo Opportunity Almost Missed

Yesterday, when I was getting ready for school, I told myself that I was going to leave my camera behind this time. Well, at the last minute when I was about to leave, something told me to take my camera, so I grabbed it. The day went on and no photo opportunities came, at least none that interested me, or that I saw. When my last class of the day was over I left and while heading towards the elevator, I looked to my left out beyond the glass windows and saw this beautiful sunset happening before my eyes. At that moment I was so glad that I had my camera with me to capture this event and then I thought how upset I would’ve been if I didn’t have my camera with me to shoot this. As I was snapping away I was amazed at how many people were just passing by and not noticing the sunset. These were taken at the same place the other sunset photo in the A Beautiful Sunset to End the Day post. http://adriansphotoblog.wordpress.com/2012/02/29/a-beautiful-sunset-to-end-the-day/ To view the post highlight the link and right click.  What do y’all think?

STAY OFF WEIR

I photographed this the same day I photographed the skyscapes in the previous post.

The Heavens

Here are a couple shots of the sky I photographed Thursday. What do you think?

A Stroll in a Park: Part 10 (Finale)

Well I hope y’all have enjoyed my ‘A Stroll in a Park’ series. To wrap it up I have this last photo. When we were making are way back to the car we saw this timid doe (I saw about three of them) keeping a close watch on us. Unlike the deer at McAllister park that I have photographed these deer were very timid. Since I couldn’t get a full body shot of the deer I decided to incorporate the surrounding trees and brush in the frame. Let me know what you think.

A Stroll in a Park: Part 9

If anyone can identify any of these flowers for me, I would greatly appreciate it.
