If you are near my age, you will remember the old flat top hair cut, now worn by sports luminaries like Howie Long. Sony nex5n and Micro Nikkor 55/3.5, hand held, rocking focus. I am really liking this old lens.
Almost Flat But The Girls Had Fun And Made The Best Of It .

Sometimes a guy just needs a break.
Doesn’t even have to be one of those big thunder breaks that scatters balls in all directions.
Sometimes, just a good, solid flat break would help.
Just a ding off to the side that gets the whole thing rolling.
Something that helps get you to the other side of the game.
But then, what fun would that be, right?
Ain’t no sunshine in the gutter.
Sometimes it’s better to think about what’s on the other side than to actually get there.
Because sometimes the quickest way off that bridge…
Is down.

Alviso Flat lies just a hundred yards north of the Alviso Marina County Park. Situated just west of the 1880 South Coast Pacific railroad grade, the flat is a widening of the ditch flanking the rail track. I have no idea why the ditch widens here but it makes an interesting and photographic landscape feature. The area fills with a few inches of water during our winter rainy season and tends to dry out in the summer. This has been an exceptionally dry winter so I was a bit surprised to find water in the flat during this January visit. Perhaps it is due to the adjacent salt ponds, which were relatively full, or a connection to the New Chicago Marsh on the other side of the track. This marsh is running with much higher water levels since the Salt Pond A16 construction project.
As you walk along the levee past Alviso Flat you can see the vague remnants of a few marsh channels. These are much more evident from the air as is the color du jour of the flat’s shallow water (in this case light brown).
Fellow KAPper Dave Wheeler, who was visiting from Maryland, accompanied me on this outing. You can see Dave’s white Rokakku kite in several of the images.
I am taking these documentary photographs under a Special Use Permit from the California Department of Fish & Wildlife. Kite flying is prohibited over the Eden Landing Ecological Reserve without a Special Use Permit, as is access to this part of the Don Edwards National Wildlife Refuge.

After battling with the overhead light and trying to balance the light out properly, we finally had a nice balance of lighting on each side of Emmas face and the top of her head. Sometimes it can be a challenge to properly expose hair that is either very dark or very light. Emma has dark hair, but you can clearly see detail in the individual strands of her hair, letting us know that it was properly exposed.
NYC's Flat Iron building. A gorgeous Beaux-Arts styled skyscraper built in 1902.
I got rid of most of the vehicle and pedestrian traffic in this image by using a neutral density filter and shooting a 20 second exposure even though I shot this in the late morning.
Alexandra Lake, Wanstead Flats. The most Southerly part of Epping Forest.
Flickr, it seems the name is not Aldersbook, but Aldersbrook, and that name only applies to the housing estate, not this part of Epping Forest.
The name is taken from Alders Brook, a water course where Alder trees grew. Not from a Book about the trees
