Since it was such a nice day, I walked around at lunch. I only took a few pictures:

Happy Mothers day!

Today, I took some new flower pictures. I am also introducing a new gallery style. It has larger thumbnails, google map links, links to purchase prints, and a cleaner look. It also has a special mobile view for mobile devices.

Please let me know what you think!

The weather is finally starting to change so I got outside to take some pictures…

The first week of February, I was in Washington D.C. for business. I managed to squeeze a long weekend in after the work was finished.

Yesterday, I went to the Garfield Park Conservatory. I took a long lens, and a macro ring flash. There were not a ton of blooming flowers this time of year, so I had to get a little creative:

Last night I saw Weezer at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago. They played a greatest hits set, and then the album Pinkerton in it’s entirety. It was a great show.

We were all the way in the back, and I might have been the shortest person in the whole place, so it was difficult to take pictures. I had to hold my camera high over my head for these shots. They are extreme crops, and it was very low light, but I think I captured the spirit of the event:

I shot some video too. The sound is terrible. Apparently the built in camera mic couldn’t handle concert volumes (the video probably won’t stream… you’ll have to download it.):

I took these pictures on my recent business trip to Los Angeles:

Here are some pictures from the final 2010 Cruise Night, in Whiting, IN:

I took these photos while boating on Lake Michigan. We started in Whiting, IN, and went just north of Navy Pier. It was a really hazy day, but beautiful.

These are shots from the Sutro baths. This was my favorite photo spot on our vacation.
