Today I was passing in front of this building and I was struck by the simplicity of the façade and the complexity of the stair, and how their closeness can be harmonic.
The increasing complexity of software applications and architectures in Internet services challenge the reasoning of operators tasked with diagnosing and resolving outages and degradations as they arise. This talk will give a glimpse into how other fields handle incident response and paint a picture of what active steps we can take to support engineers in those uncertain and ambiguous scenarios. Examples include fields such as military, surgical trauma units, space transportation, aviation and air traffic control, and wildland firefighting.
Despite higher focus on how failures can be prevented through more robust and fault-tolerant design of these systems, a dearth of research explores the cognitive challenges engineers face when those preventative designs fail and they are left to think and react to scenarios that hadn’t been imagined, much like in fields outside of technology.
The complexity of healthcare delivery is growing with the proliferation of mobile devices and integration of provider and payer value chains. Find out more in this panel how ready healthcare IT organizations might be to adopt emerging cloud-based solutions.

Complexity #2 Just cherry tomatoes with some drops of water which makes the picture more vivid and the contrast of colors makes the picture fuller as well.
Close-up of the second fan. I love this one more than the painted one because you can see the delicate design better.

An image I've meant to do for a while, shallow DOF on a book, and this one seemed to call out for it.
Another camera toss done at work 6.28.09. I darkened the exposure a little to bring out the details, but that's my only edit.
... that's what I always think when I see these tiny flowers each summer. Fleabane? I think that's what they are thanks to one of my contacts.

This photo was meant to represent complexity because of the multiple lines running in different directions. I think it is also a good example of rectangles, eye line, and dynamic tension.
The photographs in my Weed Flower Micro sets may appear to be close-ups of regular-sized flowers – they are not!
These are micro (macro) photographs of tiny little flowers which bloom on ordinary weeds found in my lawn.
How tiny? The largest weed flower in the set is only, when measured across its widest part from petal tip to petal tip, 3/4" in diameter (19mm)!
Some of these miniscule flowers are so small that the entire blossom you are looking at is 1/4" in diameter (6mm)…or smaller. Again, that’s measuring from petal tip to petal tip across the widest part of the bloom.
The smallest part of a weed flower that I have managed to successfully shoot and achieve good detail in is a photo I made of a bud that measured LESS than 1/32" in diameter (0.7mm) across its widest part!
For relative size references I have included a photo of certain flowers and buds next to the head of an ordinary paper match, which dwarfs the blooms and buds.
It’s delightful to discover the beauty, complexity, and variety in something so small that it’s easily ignored, taken for granted, dismissed as a pest, or just downright difficult to see with the naked eye.
And it’s an even greater delight to realize that this incredible beauty has been growing wild in my lawn, year after year, right under my un-seeing eyes as I’ve repeatedly mown them down with my lawn mower, never realizing the unseen beauty that I was trampling under my feet.
It’s the most challenging form of photography that I pursue, but I have a lot of fun making these photos for us to look at; I hope you enjoy viewing these as much as I do.
