A phenom if ever there was one, Maurice Brown had people buzzing about his chops while he was still attending Hillcrest High School in Country Club Hills. In short order, he won a full music scholarship to Northern Illinois University, took top prize in the Miles Davis Trumpet Competition and established himself as a force to be reckoned with on the Chicago music scene. He was featured on recordings by Ernest Dawkins’ New Horizons Ensemble and Fred Anderson.
In equally short order, it seemed, he was gone. After studying with Louisiana legend Alvin Batiste at Southern University in Baton Rouge, he asserted himself in New Orleans, where he mixed it up with top local players, scored a weekly gig at the Snug Harbor jazz club and recorded his first album, Hip to Bop. Think of hard bop monsters Freddie Hubbard and Lee Morgan dipping into contemporary grooves, personalizing the sound with “wah wah” effects and such, and you’ll have a hint of what a blast of fresh air Brown was.
The next leg of his journey was set in motion by Hurricane Katrina, which he escaped with little more than his horn and his laptop. As captured in the documentary, Brass Movement: A Modern Love Story, he landed on his feet, and then some, in New York, where his talents were demanded by such artists as Aretha Franklin, Roy Hargrove, Talib Kweli, Diddy, Cee-Lo Green and rising Irish soul singer Laura Izibor. Whatever he’s playing, he creates instant excitement. A group with its own strong personality, the Maurice Brown Effect includes New Orleans saxophonist Derek Douget, pianist (and Chicago native) Chris Rob, bassist Solomon Dorsey and drummer Joe Blaxx.

Hamburg, NY- Members of the 174th Attack Wing, Syracuse, NY, patrol the streets here today. The Airmen were activated to help with relief efforts in Erie County due to the recent lake effect snow storm. The mission is still in progress around the area with more than 500 service members activated.
Created with PhotoSpiralysis using the mapping from Escher's "Print Gallery" (also known as the Droste-effect).

Had good fun with a group at Offshoot Camera Club trying out the Adamski effect on a number of photos. It provides some interesting effects.
The Adamski effect was created by Josh Adamski. It uses blur techniques to create the illusion of movement, and you can choose to isolate figures or elements in the photo and leave them un-blurred.
Thanks to Emily Gallagher for leading the group and introducing us to the technique.
A long exposure of 90 sec. The clouds were moving in different directions. The Coriolis effect.
