I wonder where everyone was? :)
Almost one year ago, this view was anything *but* desolate, here
Wide angle view (25mm) of downtown Raleigh, NC on a very cold, windy, and sunny afternoon. This is a full 2-minute exposure from above South Saunders St. on Western Boulevard. I love long exposures. Note - I chose a B&W version because of the dead grass in the median; too much yellow for my liking.

Desolate area along the old Mustin airstrip at the former Philadelphia Naval Shipyard. Lincoln Financial Field is in the background. Not really a great photo, but I liked the desolate look and how the traffic light sits with no use along what is now a little-used road.
Some people just know how to live.
Stalk me on the five thousand or so social media outlets I try to keep up with.

“A division or contrast between two
things that are or are represented as
being opposed or entirely different.”[1]
A series of “Carte de illuminée” images, that combine a
variety of interdisciplinary techniques such as pin
pricking, hand embroidery, machine sewing, foraged
from nature forms, and fabrics placed onto the images
printed on card, providing a painterly texture when
illuminated from behind.
Dichotomy is a literal explanation about what I set to
achieve and depict – I wanted to highlight and compare
the opposing sides found in life and our surroundings:
Sublime vs Ravage
Endure vs Upsurge
Winsome vs Tousle
Radiant vs Desolate

Well, it was raining again today and it was cold and even adding some hot water to the puddle I was sitting in didn't really help so I could only take five shots before giving up and heading inside. Luckily I liked three out of the five.
I took Dad to Star Trek last night for his birthday - an absolutely awesome movie with some spectacular special effects! Karl Urban was awesome (yay for a Kiwi doing great things =) and Simon Pegg was brilliant too.
I have two weeks before exams so I'm probably not going to be on here much while I'm studying. I'll try to keep up with all of your wonderful photos as best I can though =)
Sunrise at Spurn Point. The sunrise itself was subtle to say the least, but at least the low light allowed for slightly longer exposures to capture more movement in the back wash.
Eventually, the sun burned enough cloud away to cast some light onto the wet sand.
Would really like to capture this spot when the tide is a little higher.
The sidings beside the HST shed at Laira are looking rather empty during the day as a result of the ongoing stock shortage. To the left, 43122 and 43094 (nearest to the camera) are seen back to back. Beside them is 43153, standing solo. In the distance, GWR 08836 can be made out beside a rake of Mk3s and to the right stands a pair of UID IETs.

Emily and I traveled around today. She's moving tomorrow, and this is our last photoshoot together. I've actually been wanting to do a photo like this for a long time(I've been eyeing piles of dirt). This is actually an expansion, since I only had my 50mm and I can only reach my arms so high :P I'm really happy with how this turned out, and is one of my favorite pictures I've taken.
