So I haven't been doing great in getting the photos uploaded the same day I took them, but I am sure some of you are glad to see something that was not taken at night or inside!
One thing I have vowed to do for the new year, and with this 365 project is to present my neighborhood and my surroundings to others, but also as a documentary for myself. One thing I wanted to document is this view of the fair city of Lakewood. Its from the window of the stairwell in my apartment building. Sometimes I take the stairs just to get this view. When the sun is setting, it can be nice to get a view of it, over the treetops and rooftops. It may not be the most astounding to some, but I enjoy it nonetheless.
Another thing I have vowed to work on this year is HDR. My friend tbower has an amazing collection of tasteful HDRs in his stream. He manages to display a scene with enhanced dynamic range, tastefully done, and similar to what we see with our eyes. I have also seen badly done HDR that is unrealistic and the effect is overdone for my taste, so I know what to avoid! So this scene may not look challenging, exposure-wise, but the sky was quite bright compared to the gloom that covered everything else. This was a 3 exposure HDR (+1, 0, -1) that provided the right amount of range I felt necessary, and I am really happy that it looks "normal" to me.
Steps: not outside my front door, but outside the apartment, so I will count this one at 9 steps.
Rooftop storage is quite popular in Cairo. Just look at the number of tires to be found there. Picture taken from Bab Zuweila.
View over Darling Harbour and the Central Business District (CBD) of Sydney from the roof of my hostel, Rooftop Travellers Lodge. The three glowing towers are the Sydney International towers. Sydneys Royal Harbour Bridge is to their left. It looks tiny from this view.
I've never lived so high up before. Here, when the weather packs it in, I feel like I'm in the audience, watching a really really good show. Here, I hear rain on the roof, and I have the privilege of watching the sun set over the sea every night.
Mike and Finn (and my hat) enjoy a few drinks at The Standard. It was cold and rainy that day, so we decided to go drinking at a downtown rooftop bar. Clever folks, we are.

Panoramic shot I made up on the roof of my building this morning while the sunrise timelapse shot was running.
Used the lensbaby pinhole optic to shoot about 15 images, which I then stitched together in photoshop.
The only post processing I did was to apply a little bit of unsharp mask to bring out some of the details/contrast.
