After failing to capture the groovy clouds on the way home—from the window of the speeding Golf—I was gazing blankly off into space, trying to come up with an idea for a shot to make, when I noticed it was raining a bit. Nice. And then I noticed the pretty reflection of the fake flowers …

365.160 I need a shower
On the way home today, I remembered the large rocks that adorn the courtyard of the set of apartments that shares the parking lot with us, and decided that they might make a nice landscape for these two little cowbows. But I forgot one thing… I got home, changed out of my work clothes, deliberated …
365.159 Object Lesson
Let this be an object lesson to you: When you have total control over your subject (as in the case of these two little Elastin cowboys) and virtually all the time you want to take to try out various lenses and focal lengths, at least pretend to try and get yourself in position to get …

365.157 L’Empire des lumières

365.156 QQ @ 31
Yes, it’s another iPhone photo, taken while researching corporate locations at work via Gmaps. I spend quite a bit of time on Gmaps and the GSV (street view) every day, trying to track down known locations for various corporations. (Yes, my job is wildly exciting like that…) Whenever I see something neat, I snap 1-10 …
365.155 country roads, take me home
(originally posted to Google + via iPhone under the heading “this is not my 365 shot, but it’s the best I can do at present.”) So I woke up this morning to find that last night’s electrical storm killed my modem. Oh well. But the highway was beautiful and I got some neat shots of …
