Grandin LRT Station has the second-longest escalators I've ever seen.
First Place goes to the escalators at Macquarie University Station in Macquarie Park, NSW. Those ones are a looong ride.
I didn't realize it until now, but this is the 52nd installment of my 52-week project. I did it! Woo! Actually I don't feel like I'm done yet. I think I'm just going to keep going for a while...
In case anyone is curious, here's a video someone shot from the lift at Macquarie showing the height of the escalators. www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8vqltm6nqI
Our day at the Flower & Garden Festival this year was a very overcast day. While this gives you flat lighting it often means the backgrounds suck because the sky is an ugly grey. This meant I mostly stuck to my Nikon 70-200 2.8 (a lens I should use more anyway) to create tighter framings and compress the frame on some sort of interesting background. Here’s one of the Buzz Lightyear topiary against Mission Space with the grey sky mostly eliminated. The flat lighting from the overcast sky does look pretty great on Buzz I think. Enjoy.

Toy Story was released by Pixar on November 22, 1995, just over a year after the birth of my son in 1994. It has been his favorite every since he was old enough to watch and we've seen it hundreds of times! This bigger than life version of Buzz Lightyear is located outside one of the buildings at the All-Star Movies resort at Walt Disney World in Florida. He is more than 3 stories tall and amazing in the level of detail. We were there for this particular trip in the summer of 2016 when my son was already 21 years old and one of the best parts of this trip was his excitement in seeing this huge Buzz...his favorite character! "To infinity and beyond..."

My dear friends. My time on flickr has come to and end and this is my last image. I wish to thank you for your friendship, visits and most excellent work. It has been my privilege to meet you and see it. Peace to all.
Johnny Cash once said "If you learn music, you'll learn most all there is to know. "
I don't really know much about that, but I am not going to argue with the Man so I leave you in good hands. :-)

PS: I am not going far. I'll be at the café Copacabana at the end of the universe. So if you are in the neighbourhood come say hello. Its happy hour. :-))
A single 20 mins exposure from Lost Lake. Of cos the sensor wasn't very happy and had like 15497 hot pixels. Spend a couple hours cloning out 12781 of those red, blue, green pixels and finally gave up. The light on the left was from someone who decided to launch a kayak at 2AM. :)
I used to think that the Milky Way was something you could only see if you’re an astronomer- it is super elusive and when you do see it, you might mistake it for some haze or fog in the night sky. Was at Lost Lake over the weekend because the forecast said it’d be clear. And it was, before sunset. Set my alarm for 11pm and took a nap. When I woke up, Mt Hood was barely in sight, enshrouded by clouds. Disappointment mounting, I set up my gear to take a test shot anyway. Worst fears confirmed as pictures turned out cloudy. Since I’d driven 2.5 hours there, I decided to muck around and be optimistic. There were a couple of flashes across the sky coz there was a probably a thunderstorm going on some where in the West. That distracted me for while, and before I knew it, the skies cleared and the Milky Way was totally visible! Took many shots (probably too many) and this is my favorite amongst them. I guess some things, like Portland’s Voodoo donuts, are worth the wait? :)
I got lucky for this one. I was feeding the dogs outside when I noticed the glow of the moon. It went up really fast and I just got time to grab the camera and rush back out to take a couple of shots before the light changed.
Buzz Lightyear is a fictional character in the Toy Story franchise. He is a toy Space Ranger superhero according to the movies and an action figure in the franchise. Along with Sheriff Woody, he is one of the two lead characters in all four Toy Story movies. The character has been the subject of critical acclaim, becoming one of the most iconic and beloved film characters of all-time. Buzz has remained Pixar's most famous character, and has become one of Disney's most marketable characters since his debut. The character's catchphrase, "To Infinity... and Beyond!", has also received high recognition as well, becoming one of the most famous movie quotes of all-time.
This photo is a great example of Disney's floral version of Buzz Lightyear at Disney's Epcot during their International Flower & Garden Festival.

Headed out to the coast with Ben Coffman and met a bunch of photogs shooting sunset. We got there a lil after sunset and everyone was already packing all ready to leave. Hiked up the sand dune and found a spot we liked. Set up the camera in the dark. Took a couple rest shots. Checked all settings and the drill goes...
Start the timer
Run to spot
Freeze for 20s
Echoes of shutter mirror flipping
"Ok, Done"
Wash, Rinse, Repeat
Here's one of the many many selfies I took last night. TGIF Everyone! :)
Hunsecker’s Mill Bridge is a central Pennsylvania landmark and holds the record for the longest span of any covered bridge in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The wooden bridge was first built in 1848 and rebuilt in 1973 following hurricane damage. Using Stellarium and some good ole’ fashion trigonometry, the optimal time to photograph the rising full moon through the historic bridge was determined. If you look closely, you can see the familiar “V” pattern of Hyades as well as the Pleiades cluster near the top of the star field.
Carrying 47lbs of camera gear up South Sister totally kicked my a$$. About a 14miles hike roundtrip with 5000 ft elevation gain, I struggled here and there but we made it just in time for sunrise! The entire area looked a little smoky due to all the forest fires in the area. Here's a shot from 10,358ft, Oregon's 3rd highest mountain. Hope everyone is having a great weekend! :)
To infinity... and beyond!
Essa é definitivamente a minha homenagem ao visionário Steve Jobs.
Poucas pessoas tem a capacidade de ser a mudança que espera ver no mundo. Poucos podem, poucos querem, raros são... E ele é!
Como diria Buzz Lightyear para o seu amigo Woody "Ao infinito... e além!"

Not the typical Wall Street of NYC as the title suggest, here's Wall Street from the famous Narrows in Zion National Park, Utah.
If you can get to Wall Street early enough in the day, you can catch the glow from the reflection of sunlight on the canyon walls, pretty magical indeed. Ikr, I sound like I just saw an unicorn.. Hmm anyway. As usual, I kept my friend, Athichart Tangpong, in frame for a sense of scale.
Note to self: Rented a pair of dry pants and canyoneering shoes for this trip. I am kinda short, maybe I should have opted for drysuit instead. Hiking in the water for a couple miles, waist deep at some parts and at several parts of the Narrows, water started streaming into the top of the pants, not a great idea at all and totally defeated the idea of DRY pants. :p
It is believed our universe is finite but has no limits. There is a fixed amount of mass but appears to be limitless because we can't find any edges or boundaries where it all stops. A finite yet unbounded universe. I like to think of myself this way- I am limitless.
I got this done on December 13, 2014- The one year anniversary of my college graduation.
Straight out of HS I started working, married a few years later, had kids, got them to a point where I could go to evening college classes and one phrase I learned to hate was "read the book!" If I didn't learn anything else, I learned to read the book. If it's not a well written book that can be a problem so it's up to you to find the one that is well written and illustrated. And then, you'll learn something useful.
Seems appropriate considering Jonathan was an educator.
I was out last night, attempting to get some shots of the Geminid Meteor shower. By the end of the shoot I was beginning to have issues with first condensation and then later, frost. At first I didn't notice, because I wasn't previewing my pictures, but when I did, I called it a night.
When Ed Brice and I first decided to go up to Seattle to attend Dave Morrow's Star Photography workshop I instantly began to have delusions of grandeur about the kind of photos I was going to get of the Milky Way. I played out all kinds of different scenarios for the kinds of images I planned to get up on Mt. Rainier.....
Let me be the first to tell you, DO NOT LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOURSELF! Dave was a gracious host to us up on Mt. Rainier but unfortunately mother nature was not as after the sun had set her and Mt. Rainier conspired to create an epic amount of cloud cover so we couldn't see a single star that night. I still walked away from that evening and morning learning a lot from Mr. Morrow and have been attempting to apply it to my star photos and regular photos in general.
Since Ed and I were thwarted by the clouds that evening we ended up deciding to try our luck once again a couple of nights later over by Ruby Beach. Everything seemed to be lining up perfectly as the clouds had cleared out during the day, the forecast for the evening was looking good from the weather reports we read and we were all set to get some Milky Way photos. We decided that if we were going to be up all night and it had already been an exhausting trip we'd take a quick nap in the car before getting the photos. We slept for about an hour and awoke at 1am thinking we were good to go, only to find another massive layer of clouds happened to come out of nowhere in the hour we had been asleep. Instead of giving up right there we figured we'd sleep another hour and try our luck again at 2am....still a massive layer of clouds everywhere we looked.
At that time we decided to just drive and see if we could find a spot clear fo clouds...after driving about 20 or 30 miles away from the beach Ed looked out the window up to the sky and said he saw stars. We pulled off on the side of the road and started to snap away and this is one of those shots I came away with.
My apologies for the short story presented here but sometimes I find it fun to hear how a certain photo came about or the adventure behind it so I figured I'd post that here for those that also enjoy it.

Right now Troy is really into Toy Story and super hero's so the other day we were pretending to be superheros and were "flying" around in the living room. I made him his own cape and put on his Buzz shirt (he always wants to wear it!) and take a couple jump shots of him once I uploaded them on my computer I thought of Maria's super cute shot she took of her son in the clouds and it inspired me to do this. There's a lot of flaws in the post processing so this was the best I could do lol.
It was fun though and I think this is Troy's most favorite picture of himself too. He said "Mama I'm in Woody's room flying... Look!" so sweet.
Anyways Happy Cliche Saturday will catch up with you all later the Mr. & I are off to have date night!!

Their mission: To boldly go where no pet has gone before. . .
Although The Space Shuttle fleet was recently retired, Congress has allowed it to be used for domestic animal missions.
In the courtyard of the All-Star Movies Resort at Walt Disney World in Florida, there are larger than life replica's of many Disney movie characters...this is Buzz Lightyear from Pixar's Toy Story standing proudly and proclaiming "To Infinity and Beyond!"

I found myself in the odd position earlier where I was directing hatred at hair bobbles. A pretty inoffensive object... but not when you are tasked with shooting interesting images of them.
I struggled with it a bit this morning, went away for lunch to clear my head and came back in the afternoon with some new ideas. This shot is probably my favourite. The bobbles are sitting on a perspex sheet and lit from below.
