Restored F-Line Streetcar
Wednesday, June 3, 2009 at 1:57PM | in California, Creative, HDR, San Francisco, Street Car, Travel 
I think this Street Car is originally from Italy.
Welcome
to my personal blog. Here I post examples of my photography and writing. I specialize in making unique and highly detailed photographs. Notice I said making and not taking. Yes I take photos but a lot of time and work is involved in pushing and punishing the pixels in my images to achieve the look I like.
Please feel free make comments about any of my words or photos. I enjoy constructive critiques, learning about locations to shoot or photography techniques. Click on the "Share Article" link to share any of my photos via Flickr, Facebook, Instagram, etc.
Want to use one of my posts in your own blog? No problem, but please make sure it links back to the original post here and do the right thing and give me credit. Don't copy my words, crop the images, remove the watermarks or claim my work as your own. This has happened more times than I can count so I've had to report copyright violations to ISP's and regrettably the violators blog is usually taken down.
Can't we all just get along?

Fort Point Panorama [Explored]
Wednesday, June 3, 2009 at 1:56PM | in California, Explored, HDR, Panorama, San Francisco, Travel 
The Golden Gate bridge arches over Fort Point before continuing on across the San Francisco bay. It was extremely windy the day I shot this. I actually got blown over twice but saved the camera! I will need to restitch this as there are some areas that didn't match up quite right.

Encounters
This resturant in the Los Angeles international airport looks like a place Austin Powers would hang out in. Cool retro architecture.

Several people have asked for a detail shot of the photo "keeping a low profile". Here it is.

Hyatt Regency Lobby

The lobby of the San Francisco Hyatt Regency hotel soars 170 feet above me as I stand on the ground floor trying to take it all in.

Morning over the Port of San Francisco [Explored]
Wednesday, June 3, 2009 at 1:51PM | in California, Explored, HDR, San Francisco, Travel 
Highest Position in Explore #153 on 3/29/09.
Taken from the 17th floor of the San Francisco Hyatt Regency hotel a few minutes after 6 in the morning. There was a door at the end of the hallway. I opened it and found a tiny platform with a vertical concrete wall that had a 9" gap from which I could see the Ferry building, Bay Bridge and the sun rising over the bay below me. I literally ran back to my room to get my camera, tripod and cable release. I propped open the door with a newspaper I found by the ice machine and started taking photos...
