I saw the image in front of me, worked to get it right, and mostly did. Enough that, when I saw it pop up in Lightroom during my post processing, that I busted out in a wide grin and shouted "Woo Hoo!"

What makes it special?

Two things make this stand out. One is the look and reflected light on Greg, the station engineer for public radio station WUIS. Second is the captured reflection of Jessica Jo Jolly in the studio glass that separates the control room from the performance space. If, I could have had both Greg & Jessica in focus, that would have been perfection.

This was part of a photo session to document the renovated studios at the station. They've been nearly completely redone, moving from analogue to digital technology. The control room serves two purposes, one as an "On Air" studio, capable of hosting several people, each with their own microphone, and feeding into the live broadcast or recorded for later broadcast. The second purpose comes from being attached to the renovated performance studio, which can host musical performances for a small audience as well as for live broadcast or recorded for later presentation. Greg set it up so from one spot both functions of recording & monitoring the performance area, and broadcast control can be accomplished from one spot, just by swiveling around.

I love the intensity that shows on Greg's face, and that it seems that he is looking right at the reflection of Jessica.

Sometimes, it all works out like I see in my mind's eye.

Signal aliasing by Lavender Dreamer

My commuter jet's rotating propellers in flight, as seen by my iPhone (while trying to capture the snow-covered mountains on my flight from San Diego to LA). The human eye just sees a blur, but the iPhone sampling aliased this into a deceptive figure. There are really only 4, by the way.
