Suspension

11/30/10 - Day 347
I don't know if this bridge in Boston, designed by Calatrava, follows the Golden Ratio (Daily Shoot #380), but it is one beautiful piece of architecture and engineering.  Taken this evening on the way to Logan Airport for my flight back to Chicago.

Not a Chance...

11/17/10 - Day 334
..that I would drive in this traffic every day.  A long commute on public transportation I can handle.  Made my own graffiti on this image for today's Daily Shoot #367: "Graffiti is unwanted by many, but can be visually interesting.  Find visual interest in something you don't like today."

Avoid the Flat

11/2/10 - Day 319
Today's Daily Shoot assignment #352 was: "A fork in the road.  Casting a ballot. Buying bread.  Choices abound.  Illustrate making a choice today with a photo today."  My choice was to drive around the fork in the road.

New District Watercolor

10/7/10 - Day 293
Notwithstanding the rain and chill, we covered a lot of ground today. We absolutely love Istanbul...a frenetic city with wonderful, warm people, great inexpensive food, and more retail than one could ever imagine. This image was taken in the rain on Istiklal Street, a main shopping/strolling drag in the New District.

For the technical-minded, this is SOOC.

Walls of Hydra

9/26/10 - Day 282
At the end of a 32 hour day, we're returning from dinner in Hydra. The white painted walls, along with the random streetlights, allow this area near the harbor to be navigable at night. Very quaint with no motorized vehicles on the island.

Also in response to DS #315 regarding fences and walls.

Call Animal Control!!!

9/23/10 - Day 279
I'm being attacked by the dreaded Orange Tachosauras!

Taken for Daily Shoot #312: "Symmetry can be calm and soothing.  Make a photo today featuring symmetry, either in subject or composition. (@logista)"   This one is neither calm nor soothing, but it is symmetrical.  Taken SOOCP using the SymmetriCam feature in the FxCcamera andriod app.

America's Pastime

9/16/10 - Day 272
I was invited tonight to attend the Dodgers-Giants game at AT&T Park in San Francisco.  With the Giants leading in the 7th, and a 6am flight back to Chicago, I didn't stay for the whole game.  Walking back to the car, I was struck by the beauty of the stadium lights, the rolling fog and the reflections on the water and knew this was going to be today's post.

For those following the Daily Shoot, I did take shots for today's assignment, but am not posting one until Sunday or Monday, because it will also qualify for MacroMondays.

Lantern on the Deck

8/24/10 - Day 249
Another evening working down that wine stash from last night's P365 shot.  After a couple glasses of wine, this lantern was looking pretty interesting.  Shot for today's Daily Shoot #282: "Make a low key photo today with lots of dark areas.  You might need to use exposure compensation to make it work."

Fire Runner

8/1/10 - Day 226
I love shooting fire and trying to find images in the flames after the fact.  Check out my Flickr set of fire shots.

Cheese

7/23/10 - Day 217
Great trip to Denver to visit my son.  Had to chance to see a band I like (String Cheese Incident) at Red Rocks, a venue I've heard a lot about but never seen.  Pretty amazing place.

Bathing Beauty

7/2/10 - Day 196
Went out tonight to shoot at a local fountain in order to submit on today's Daily Shoot assignment #229.  I didn't see this when shooting, but when reviewing, discovered the form of a woman's body arising from the pool.

Frenetic!

6/4/10 - Day 168
Today's Daily Shoot: "Make an interpretive photo of a subject or scene that sums up your mood today."  This was my day in picture and word!

Paris or Vegas...?

5/27/10 - Day 160

You make the call.

Adaptive Reuse

5/18/10 - Day 151
I don't know the whole story, but this building was in the way of the Petco Park grandstand in San Diego, so the stadium was built around it.  Now the building itself has been converted to skyboxes overlooking the field.  This is a great ballpark located right in downtown San Diego.

I Don't Need No Stinkin' V8...

4/19/10 - Day 122
...because I have an Inline 6.  Today is the four month anniversary of my P365, hence a self-portrait day.  See 3/19/10 for the first V8-themed image.

Muni Stop

4/14/10 - Day 117
3rd & Market; one of San Francisco's busiest Muni stops.  Shot at 10:15pm, there is still plenty of activity in this area.

Reflections in B/W

4/9/10 - Day 112
Absolutely no time to shoot today.  Got off the train at dusk, saw reflections in the retention pond and took a few shots, figuring "Ah Ha - saved by the reflections!"  Not so.  They all looked like crap...until post-processing.  Ah Ha - saved by Lightroom!

Light Trails: Over the RR Tracks

2/26/10 - Day 70
Wanted to try shooting something different today.  Lin and I went out to dinner...she drove and I shot.  This image was taken going over a set of railroad tracks during the exposure.

ORD at 10

2/17/10 - Day 61

Landing at O'Hare tonight, I was very surprised at how deserted the United terminal was.  Rarely having the opportunity to see it so empty, I placed the camera on the floor near the center of Terminal C to get this shot back toward the gates.

Daily Commute

2/11/10 - Day 55

Daily commute for the Daily Shoot.  Assignment today was for a "wide" shot so I took a fisheye view of the Kennedy Expressway on the way home from a late partners' meeting.
