I snapped this one while walking around this evening.
Definitely some noise going on, but this was shot handheld.

New Toy
February 6, 2010 · 2 Comments
After almost two years of being without a point and shoot digital camera (thanks to some shady roommates in a previous apartment), I finally decided that it was time to stop comparison shopping and reading reviews and pony up for a new one, in anticipation of taking a trip to Spain. I have no desire to take the DSLR or a film camera when the goal is to spend the whole week traveling with one backpack.
Enter my new Lumix DMC-LX3. I’m very pleased with how it shoots in low light as well as the macro mode. Here are some early shots from a weekend around the city. I’ll definitely post some shots from the trip as well as additional thoughts when I get back.
(I think the compression is a little weird on these, but I’m too lazy to re-do them today.)

XHTML and CSS
January 23, 2010 · Leave a Comment
Recently, I decided that I needed to learn some more about XHTML and CSS. I’ve been building HTML emails a good deal lately, and I realized that I had to ask someone for help or do an ad hoc search for anything that I did not already know how to do. This is incredibly frustrating. So, I did what many people before me have done and ordered up some literature on the subject in the form of a For Dummies book.
Having the concepts explained rather than just the tools is incredibly helpful; however, I’m looking at the pages that I’m building and then looking at something like WordPress admin and affirming to myself that hacking together a webpage and building a platform are incredibly far between. I think I should focus on fundraising to hire an engineer to build whatever’s next.

Thanksgiving
November 26, 2009 · 5 Comments
This year, I started off Thanksgiving by walking the North Shore and Buttermilk trails along the banks of the James. Here are some of the sights.
-
- It started out foggy.
-
- Headstones in the fog
-
- It stayed that way for a while.
-
- Even Downtown was hiding.
-
- This fungus is crazy cool.
-
- Then, over a ridge, we saw the end of the trail.

Out and About.

I took a camera out and about today to shoot some supplementary photos for Jetsetter. It was a nice change from the iPhone photos of late. Here are a couple shots.
The AM sun was coming through the trees nicely.
The Phantoms of Times Square
This guy is never going to get a cab with that 'stache.
All in all, a morning well spent.

Postseason at the Manchester
October 10, 2009 · 2 Comments
It’s October again, which means postseason baseball. The Manchester Pub is definitely the venue of choice for drinking beers while yelling at the Yankees to please, God, get a fucking hit.
Around the seventh, I noticed a rotating crowd of people watching the game through the window, so I started snapping some pictures. Here are my favorites.
As the postseason progresses, we’ll see if the crowds get bigger at the Manch.
