From the green house on Rt 42 and the Azalea house in Odessa. That yard is incredible!

Headshots of my sisters
The name of the post would have meant something a lot different when we were 6,7 and 8...
I liked these as unfinished shots. I want to do some basic edits later today...

Cornflowers
I saw these on the side of the road coming into work today. Had to stop and get a few pics.

The quick brown fox jumped...
I stopped near Cottman Pool at Bombay Hook Wildlife Refuge to see if I could capture any nice photos of the warblers jumping around in the brush on the side of the road. Then I noticed the pheasant (next image) down in the brush. While I was trying to get a good shot of the pheasant, this fox snuck up on me. I could have hit him with the car door if I wanted to!

Strobist Peter Yang Esquire Admiral Fallon Attempt
Strobist said how to do it here:
strobist.blogspot.com/2008/04/on-assignment-peter-yang-sh... so, I went for it. This is pretty similar to the image I did for my Blogspot profile pic I did a while back to test out my home made grid spot. For that one, i used a lower light at 45 degrees and a reflector. I was looking more "author" in that shot than this one.

Japanese print
This reminds me of a Japanese print. I love the colors. I got this photo this morning before work at Silver Lake Park.

I was racing into town hoping for some sunset shots of the flowers downtown and I saw the Shutte Park sign and flowers, pulled in quick and got a nice bunch of shots. I posted a ton of them on Flickr. Take a look there.

The Bluebird of Happiness
There were a pair of bluebirds right near the entry to Bombay Hook Today. The blue was electric when they were flying around!

Daffodils!
It was finally decent enough to get some nice shots of these daffodils in my back yard. I was going for a soft, dreamy kind of abstract Georgia O'Keefe looking effect. I'm not sure I got there, but I like the photo!
Click the photo and look at the rest of my daffodil photos from today

Foodie Shots Rasika Restaurant, Washington D.C.
We went to Washington D.C. last night to meet up with some friends and go to Rasika Restaurant in DC, then go to see "Capital Steps" a comedy satire group that pretty thouroughly skewers politicians and politics in both parties. Anyways, the restaurant was top notch in every way. The food, decor and service were impeccable. If you want top quality Indian food in D.C. you can't go wrong here. Unless you don't plan a few weeks in advance. WHen our reservatoins were made last week, all that was letft was before six, or after 10.
What you're seeing here is some water chestnuts in some kind of batter then fried, in front of an asparagus dish and in the back left some fried spinach with a salsa. The ladies at the table said they must have put the spinach in extremely hot oil just long enough to get it wet. It was pleasantly crunchy and the salsa was lightly spicy.
I have some other shots on my Flickr page, just click through.
The food was awesome and the show was a blast. My friends invited me to stay over and go shoot the cherry blossoms and the zoo first thing. I took them up on the offer! We were out the house right at about sunrise then took Rock Creek Park expressway to get over by the tidal basin and the Cherry Blossom festival. It was a little drizzly, but still worth it. Look at the shots below and check the Flickr page.
Cherry Blossom Festival 10 mile Run, or,10 thousand people dumber than me!
These folks were out running at 7:40 on a damp, drizzly Sunday morning. Yeah, it's pretty and all, but, seriously. Running 10 miles to say they ran 10 miles and got a tshirt when they could be in bed snuggled up with a significant other? It's not like they're artists and need to see the special light when it's available!
The whole point of the Cherry Blossom Festival
This branch swept out over the water. I liked the background and the flowers, despite the steady, annoying drizzle.

How should an artist interpret this scene? Another lone man. A symbol for all of us facing the world alone, Trying not to be crowded out.
or, I liked the shapes and colors and adding a human made it interesting.
You decide.

Foggy Apple Orchard: I wonder how many pies are growing now?
This is about the pink green and brown. I liked the Shapes and stripes of color. I was going for a Japanese / French impressionist feel.
