the telephone pole out by our driveway.

These three photos, all taken in exactly the same spot were taken with 3 different camera settings.

The buildings and lightpole are straight-up-and-down vertical, so I don't know why the truck is crooked.

Grissom is an appetizing word. I'm getting hungry for a mayonnaise-bound meat salad.

Picture Taken by Peter Wills of Me (on top), Bryan Hill (second from top), Ben DeLong (second from bottom), and Taylor Tillinger (bottom).

Today on the way to work I swear I got stuck behind ALL the slow drivers -- the ones who leave a 2- or 3-car gap between themselves and the car ahead. That's okay if you're Sunday driving in the country. It's not okay in rush hour in the city!!! I was stuck behind one guy on the 427, then he disappeared, and then about 10km later he was putting along in front of me again! If you're not going somewhere important, get off the highway during rush hour!

I think I need to move out of the city if I ever get full-time work at my current job (which is out of the city too). I can feel the stress hormones eating away at my lifespan every time someone slow-drives in front of me during rush hour.

Anyway, back to the East Coast trip; we accidentally took the wrong exit and ended up driving through the middle of Montreal rather than around the outside of it...but traffic wasn't too bad. I took this pic as we came out from a tunnel across (or under) the river, heading further east through Quebec.

I have a night job auditing lights for a lighting company that requires I drive to a lot of urban or industrial back alleys and such ... often in the very wee hours of the morning. In the day time, most of these sites are alive and hustling and bustling with shoppers or workers. However, at night ... depending on the lighting, the hour and location, many of these sites can give off a lonely, abandoned, even creepy feeling. Yet with that feeling, can even come a certain beauty in the ugliness.

Me, I was kind of ahem out-of-it during the mid-00's so now I am frantically running around trying to look at everything I missed back then.

This one is subtly divided into a grid of nine panels. Are we supposed to be seeing those dividing lines? Or is that a construction flaw.

Lightpole in downtown Atlanta with towers in background.

A light pole seen in little Sweeden, Lindsborg, KS.

Taken with a Kodak Retina IIIc, 50mm f2.0 Xenon, and Kodak Portra 400.

tonite/tomorrow (3 am) i leave for OBX. i'm mildly concerned that my 10 hour trek will turn into 11+ because i'll be driving with my Canon this year and not my Sony. I've long wanted to take pics of the NC countryside, and once i get down in there I think I'll be pulling over—where once i'd just speed by and think, "man that is so cool, wish I could take a pic of that..."

oh man and Sonic. can't wait to get a burger. :)

Steve reminded me I had this to post.

LACMA Museum, LA

Boulder City, Nevada

I did a little research and found that this marble Confederate soldier is guarding Libby Hill Park, in Richmond, Virginia.

Libby Hill Park is a beautiful site and very popular for engagement photos, like these:

It makes me very happy that his side lost and that he now towers over beautiful scenes like these.

Shiela Klein's 1993 drive-in streetlamp museum located at Vermont & Santa Monica. 25 different light poles demonstrate the diversity of lighting a city the size of LA. The oldest light dates from 1925.

We have these lightpoles in my hometown in the walking street. Stupid modern streetlights but if you use it correctly you can take a decent shot

Public art on the lightpoles on the boardwalk outside the museum at Geraldton, Western Australia.

Amazing sale at Atwood's in Shawnee today. I picked up two of these babies for $29.99 apiece, which amounts to 4,000 watts of halogen light.

The pole is extendable to about 5.5 feet tall, and the lights are REALLY bright.

Crosswalk button at the northeast corner of Stevens Creek Boulevard and Kiely Boulevard in Santa Clara, California.

The large, yellow plastic button is a replacement for the smaller, brass or bronze push-buttons that were once common.

I photographed this button last fall. The faded paint on the light pole caught my eye, and these older signs with text instructions have been widely replaced with signs using only graphics.

See where this picture was taken. [?]

The Central Mall in Salina, Kansas, seems to be fairing better than many indoor malls in the region. Several new tenants joined the mall this spring. Considerable improvements have been made to the building. Similarly sized Hutchinson has seen substantial decline in their mall.
