Early morning commute

I sometime wonder if people know what they look like when they're asleep.

Permissions problem

My apologies for not updating in a while. My service provider executed a command as root (silly monkey) screwing up permissions on some of the movable type data. Now that everything is hunky dorey, regular updating shall commence.

It rained tonight

As I've said, I'm working a lot of overtime these days so most of my shooting is happening either directly on my commute or at night.

Or in this case, both.

Thanks Dan!

A bunch of ripening bananas to my friend Dan for suggesting the tagline "flinging poo with pictures". He's a swarthy pirate who is looking forward to dragging me to some excellent shows once I move out to Berkeley.

Overtime food

So I'm doing a lot of overtime at my job these days. While I don't mind doing the overtime -- it did just pay for my new Nikon D100 -- the food is really starting to be a drag. I do appreciate the fact that work is supplying dinner for everyone who stays, but eating baked ziti out of a tin pan warmed by a can of sterno gets old. The winner of tonight's mystery meat contest is Jeffrey Corbin who correctly guessed "chicken in a generic brown sauce." I think we had it once last week, but the sauce may have been a different brown sauce.

At least I'm not a vegetarian.

How does it work?

On the right column, I'll be adding the standard blog gab stuff that won't necessarily relate to any specific photo I post. Comments will be allowed on most posts unless the comment spam grows to be too much.

First post

Welcome. This is the photo that motivated me to get going and set up this blog. I'm hoping that forcing myself to make regular photo updates will force me to keep my photography fresh. One of the things I hope to focus on will be to figure out what my style is. Right now I feel a little all over the place thematically - I'm too busy getting a nice image to know what it is that I like about what I'm seeing.

This photo was taken on a humid evening outside my old apartment. Gothamist on why the lightning is so forky.
