Not what you want to wake up to in the morning!

Away...

Well the set subject for my photography club back home is "solitude"....
If the theme was "birds" or "blue skies" or "family fun" then I would have some trouble....
but solitude.... yeah.... there is plenty of that around if you want it...

Safety Tip.

Given what I am about to become when I get home... (which cannot come soon enough).... I feel compelled to give a safety tip today....

If you must be down a hole with just your head sticking out...
Try not to do it in the middle of a busy intersection.....

Making Pretties at Work

This morning's drive adventure

was breaking hard for a herd of migrating ducks

Interesting meeting.....

The Doctor

Near where we live there is (believe it or not) a Tardis!
The people who own it were kind enough to let us take a few photos with it this afternoon....

For a huge Doctor Who fan, this was a huge thing!

Photo Geeking:

Bright sunlight in the background.. still just before setting.  2 flashes, one held by my very own voice activated light stand, the other on the ground to the left of the shots.  Shutter speed high to darken the background.

The shot straight out of the camera is below... along with one showing a little more like what the scene looked like in real life... (along with the voice activated light stand!)

Remembering the day

We remember,
there are the solid bits to structure the memory around, then there are parts we think are solid and then the whispy cloudy bits at every single edge, and in all the spaces we did not fill up with details....

Opening up the shop....

Opening up the shop for the evening.

Not sure if this was good or bad...

but they were doing work on the elevator in the hotel...

The upside of pollution

In Australia I would have been blinded while taking this photo....

My Hotel

What it looks like from the outside....

Including the location of the ceiling that collapsed a month or so ago...

Sleepy time....

Quietly snuck up to take a photo of this gentleman catching some Zzzzzzs.
The other customers, and owners of the restaurant were have a great chuckle at it all.

Chaos in quantum

But if you stay granular when you look at the intersection,
it truly is Chaos.

Morning drive

You get to pretend it is pretty at times!
When you get it j...u...s...t right smog makes for pretty sunrises!
