Its been a long week for me, from getting really sick to moving to applying for jobs. I am finally feeling better with the occasional coughing. I also sent out my first application to a hospital, and surprisingly, the nurse recruiter called and emailed me back within a day. I'm not very sure what its about, but I have my fingers crossed that I can land this job.
Sorry for the digression, but this photo was taken at the Brooklyn Promenade. The interesting thing about this shot was that a large boat actually crossed my shot. I waited till the boat was in my small view finder, and I did a 30 second long exposure. Once the timer was up, the boat had made its way perfectly across my scene.
Sunset with one of the old towers in Cargese. The towers are build during 1550's to 1605 around whole Corsica. This one is called Tour Génoise d'Omigna.

Dawn alignment of the crescent Moon and 3 planets as seen from the Northern Panamint Range in Death Valley National Park. Above the Moon we have Venus; Mars is barely visible slightly above Venus, Jupiter at top. The lighter area in the notch of the closer mountains is the valley floor just north of Furnace Creek.
Lafayette Diner was once a house that has been rezoned for commercial use. Lafayette Boulevard is an old alignment of the US 1 highway system. At this location, it was known as
Washington Richmond Highway.
Orange Grove Road, Orange County, NC.
I had stopped at a favorite spot at sunset and was busy shooting when an old farmer who lived across the road came over to chat. So, while I may have missed several other opportunities, I had a real nice chat with Felton, who had lived in this spot for about 55 years I think. When finally we parted, I saw this nice glow up on the horizon and so remained to see if something could be made of it. Only noticed Venus with the long lens I was shooting, and then saw some interesting silhouetted shapes below. Never know what you might see until you get out there.
Really wanted this to be monotone .. but the sunset fought back and here we are ... I kind of like both..

The Moon aligned with Venus and Mercury after sunset, March 18, 2018. Venus is the brighter planet in the center, Mercury to the upper right. The moon is about 34 hours past new, a very thin crescent.
Skipping over to the back actionway now, we see somewhat of an actionway view… although it seems like I accidentally framed half of it within the men’s department instead :P Not sure my reasoning behind that, but I don’t doubt I had one, haha! To get here we’ve passed the fitting rooms, which were in the back left corner.

So scanning these pictures really kills the quality. Especially this one. The original looked much better.
When I took this photo, I noticed the young woman on the right and the alignment of the 3 subjects perpendicular to the river. On closer inspection, I thought that this alignment was all the more interesting in that it could perhaps correspond, from youngest to oldest, to this woman's family circle: potentially, her youngest son, then the teenager, and finally her husband. This hypothetical link could explain the benevolent gaze that the 'mother' perhaps seems to be casting on them. The magic of street photography is that it will always retain its mystery, and at the same time open the door to all sorts of possible interpretations.
Heading toward Foolow on an exercise walk. Seems to have a monumental appearance. 2001 a Space Odyssey came to mind.

Another angle of the Temple of the Great Jaguar taken on our excursion into the Guatemalan jungle a few weeks back. When we first walked into the main plaza that has been excavated the ominous rain clouds parted and the brilliant sunshine came through for a few fleeting moments. I might never see this amazing place again, but I felt so fortunate that the weather gave me such a perfect backdrop, even if only for a few minutes.
