So I took this picture kind of as a joke, and kind of becuase it looked cool. I had just wrapped up taking my Rush Hour shot and was walking back to my car when I saw this. MY parking had meter was already expired by about 5 minutes, "but I thought, waht the hell... this is too cool."
I've gotten a little bit of attention for my recent outtings shooting traffic long exposures and while I appreciate it, I'd ask people to understand that I am not a huge risk taker. And... what risk I might take to get a shot, are very calculated, and very planned out.
with that said, I appreciate all the kind words, and for nowat least the adventures are quieting down. This wednesday I will be spending the day in my garage splashing wine around.
have a great day everyone.
yes, i named it that. can you see it?
This is for Mike B who chose my silly car wash group today for his Rogue Players group. So I HAD to participate : )
And my car was dirty! Really!
My write up on photographing the new Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas here
On the weekend of November 20-21, 2010, I was invited to photograph the new Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas prior to their opening December 15, 2010 in Las Vegas NV.
This set of images represents my efforts that weekend to showcase this newest resort property opening up on the Las Vegas Strip. Thanks to David Scherer from The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas for showing me around, to Miiko Mentz at Katalyst Films for helping to arrange the shoot, and to my wife for modeling for me.

Taken at the Matsuri in Tsuchiura (Ibaraki prefecture, Japan). As one could see, people like this two girls had have a lot of fun :)
I grabbed their attention just for a fleeting moment, before they headed off to a more interesting place....without photographers.
Kingfishers (Alcedo atthis) or Alcedinidae are a family of small to medium-sized, brightly colored birds in the order Coraciiformes. They have a cosmopolitan distribution, with most species found in the tropical regions of Africa, Asia, and Oceania. The family contains 114 species and is divided into three subfamilies and 19 genera. All kingfishers have large heads, long, sharp, pointed bills, short legs, and stubby tails. Most species have bright plumage with only small differences between the sexes. Most species are tropical in distribution, and a slight majority are found only in forests. They consume a wide range of prey usually caught by swooping down from a perch. While kingfishers are usually thought to live near rivers and eat fish, many species live away from water and eat small invertebrates. Like other members of their order, they nest in cavities, usually tunnels dug into the natural or artificial banks in the ground. Some kingfishers nest in arboreal termite nests. A few species, principally insular forms, are threatened with extinction. In Britain, the word "kingfisher" normally refers to the common kingfisher.
