It is an interesting challenge to see and capture interesting photographs while speeding along at 70mph. Since I didn’t do any “walking at work” photos, I figured this might be an interesting opposite. Different constraints, different results. I also have a permanent record of the many, many slip/fall attorneys in the Tampa area. cc licensed […]
I photograph things on my walks to and from work for a number of reasons. I enjoy it certainly but it’s also about making sure I am really looking around. It is interesting to see what I notice and how it relates to the lens I choose to carry.1 What I think about quite a […]

I spent the first two days at the VSTE conference so I’ll throw a few of those in here as well. My summary of the conference ranges from a conversation with Andrew Carle about all sorts of things from Markov and Beautiful Soup to the other end where I watched 50 or so people sit […]
I am fully back on the stranger portrait path. This image is the one I like the best out of those I’ve taken recently. The others were all at a recent VSTE conference and I’m not sure I’m even going to “count” them in the progression towards the 100 total. Taking photographs at a conference […]
I found Costic? Acsinte1 which is a new Flickr Commons participant. It also has a Twitter account. I really like these photographs and the backstory is interesting as well. They almost seem to good to be true but I’d almost be more excited if they were. In any case, the images are awesome. A number […]
308 photos over 4 weeks of work (or slightly over 40 trips to/from my car). Some of the photos I’ve already used on web pages, some will end up in presentations, many I took just because I liked them and they’ll never “do” anything. A few that I liked from this week are below. Nothing […]
It’s been a long time, almost exactly a year, since I did any stranger portraits. It remains a difficult thing for me to do which is a large part of why I do it. Additionally, driving into work this morning I saw the scene below. The park is a place where many homeless people seem […]
Short work week and rainy but here are a few from this past week’s wandering. I love the paintbrush. […]
I’m walking a good bit more than I have in a while and it’s all in downtown Richmond. I walk a few blocks coming in from where I park and have the chance to walk around the campus some as well. I find myself parking farther away and taking some slightly roundabout paths coming to […]
I touched on this with a previous zombie pictures post. Essentially, metadata is awesome because it lets people find your stuff and it helps your stuff find its audience. Metadata is also absent more often than not because people don’t like to type in lots of tags and they especially don’t like to do it […]
