2009 Photography Project - 52 Weeks: My Surrounding Neighborhoods
A few months ago, I expressed interest in doing a photography project in 2009 and asked if anyone would be interested in joining in with a My World/Your World type of project. Sure enough, there was interest and I have been collaborating with a few individuals over the past month or so.
For 2009, we [...]
A Search Within Yourself

Description: Last summer I traveled to Bolivia and Peru and instead of taking the over beaten journey to Machu Picchu via the Inca Trail, I decided to take the alternate route, The Lars Trek. This was a 3 day journey through the back mountains of Peru, topping at 4200 meters (13,779 feet) in altitude.

Once Upon a Starfish (Flickr Meme)

It works like this: if you use Flickr, go to the sixth page of your photostream and pick the sixth picture there, then post it to your blog.
Description: I came across this meme on FriendFeed today, so I thought I’d participate. The 6th image on my 6th page is not public, so I took the [...]
A Fragment of Your Imagination

Description: While walking down Broadway, on my way from Embarcadero to Columbus St, this Banana Republic advertisement, back dropped by the Transamerica Building, caught my attention. Luckily I still had some twilight color left in the sky to provide the deep contrast between the white advertisement and the background. Like most photographers, shooting during the [...]
A Personal Photography Project - 2009

This morning on my commute to work, I was reading through Google Reader and came across Damien Franco’s post over at Your Photo Tips…“Start A New Personal Photography Project.” I realized, in the 13+ years I have been using an SLR camera (of the film or digital nature), I have never done a personal photography [...]

Romance in Vegas

Description: My second time to Vegas, I went for a soccer tournament and made it a priority to take one evening to myself and walk the strip with my camera. I took a few cliche’ shots of the Bellagio and of other typical Vegas stuff, but when I saw this scene, that little voice inside [...]
All Aboard

Description: I had a little fun processing this photo and I am very pleased with the outcome. I was experimenting with a process I’m calling “Lightroom HDR.” It’s not technically HDR (High Dynamic Range), but it tends to have that appearance. This photo was captured during the same outing as Night Train to Nowhere at [...]
