Never post a dog

Never post a cat

I swear I would never post a picture of a dog or cat. It's like children. People think their children are cute when they're not. I think this is a decent shot.

Why "not me"?

I posted this while VERY drunk. I have NO idea why I titled it "not me". It certainly is me. In the Capitol building during construction.

Another slatted light pic

Tattoo shoot

Title says it all

Slatted light

A very good friend of mine.

Photo shoot with a stranger.

I met this woman on craigslist in an effort to gain experience and not continually shoot photos of the same people all the time. She was wonderful to work with. 623 photos and several locations later I had many great shots. I'm afraid if I post more then a few it will be overkill for a single subject.

This last set is for the color.

Lovely color.

The Columbus Doors

More Capitol

Trip back to the Capitol Building

ghetto macro

This was taken with a super bright light in my eye, a remote, and my camera with two lenses front to back held together with a rubber band. It's ghetto macro boys and girls. I know the eyeball is a cliche, but it was either this or my watch again. Bleh.

A trip to work

At a car show where I get my oil changed

This picture has been waiting to be taken for years. I see this every time I drive from the office to the datacenter and FINALLY took the time to park and walk over to get a few shots.

Okay, so a shot like this will never happen again. I stalked this mother and then her babies for a while before they met back up and decided to have lunch.

Fire Island

Srsly.

Someone lost these.

This is Bob. Bob flies his kite with a fishing pole. When I asked if I could take his photo, he said with a smile "suit yourself".

Who doesn't like B&W?

Still no building in particular.

::EDIT::. They are building a new visitor center and I came to take pictures of the construction. ::EDIT:: and it was Sunday so I pretty much had the place to myself to shoot whatever I wanted.

This is one of the underground halls that looks up at the dome. Very cool in person.

No building in particular. ahem.

This is the junction between the old exterior of the building and the new construction.

This is one of the exibits that will be open to the public. That center piece is all real stone.

Nobody was there so why not just crawl under the floor and take a couple shots.

Stairs

Stairs outside the condo complex.

Bloodwork

I don't like getting stuck.

Jessica Portrait.

Bored at home

Alright. One crappy self portrait.

This is not a great photo, but it had wonderful accidental symbolism.There is…

A: Fortune cookie fortune.
B: Pills.
C: The original reason I took the photo. a mug that Jessica owns justifying animal testing which I think is bizarre. Then there is the best part, which is the faces on the little people. It’s almost as if the artist didn’t agree with the mug.
D: All lying on a bill.

Health. Some is luck, some is science, some is animal torture, and then of course, here is your bill ;)

My shower.

Yay nature.

buzzzz.

Jimmy

My brother Jimmy smoking on my balcony.

The Rose Garden in N. Arlington.

If I wasn't such a coward I would have asked to take more pictures of these women. I love that Garden camo shes got on.

Intersection in north Arlington

I took this the other night while walking with Jessica and looking at it now I enjoy it but would more if I had a tripod.

Lorton Prison

Went to Lorton Prison today to take photos. This is one of the outside guard towers. Photoshoped.

Random plant growing on the wall.

This is actually two photos put together and took a while to get perfect.

Nobody there to listen anyway.

Another guard tower with sepia tone and blur effect.

Kate with her Canon 20D

Kate, taken with her Canon 20D. Photoshoped. The original had a sewer cap in the background I removed. Then selective color correction.

Here is the original.

JFK at work

I played with this in Photoshop. Desaturate and brightness/contrast.

Wine Glass

This was taken with a flash in the middle of the night while sitting with JJ watching Scrubs.
