Another Sunset

I was driving through a parking lot and saw this sunset. The sunlight shining made the grass look golden. I like the fence as a leading line. I don't have much else to say except that blogger's photo-compression sucks and loses lots of detail.

Saturated Sunset

I was going for a run today and saw this sunset. It was ridiculously saturated with color. I had to tone it down a little in photoshop because it looked too fake (no kidding.) So I stopped my run and sat around taking iPhone pictures of the sunset - I'm pretty happy with this one but I have a couple more I might put up on Friday.

Another view

This is another shot from Stanford campus. I took a walk during lunch and the light through the pillars was nice, but it was the lit up archway halfway through the "tunnel" that caught my eye. Truthfully, this was the type of shot I was going for in the last picture when the lady in a dress walked on by. Although I like the last picture more because it has more emotion behind it, I still find this shot pleasing.

Lucky Shot

Another Hipstamatic shot. I was walking through stanford during lunch and saw some great lighting through the pillars. I didn't have my camera on me, so I started framing the picture with my iphone when this lady walks by in a beautiful dress. I wait until she is centered then take a shot. It was quite lucky for me because everyone around the area was wearing shorts and tshirts. It definitely needed her in the shot to give a subject to the architectural frame.

Watercolory

I took this picture as my wife was driving us back home from San Francisco. I liked the different colored lights in the apartment complex and took a shot knowing that the blur and low light would probably ruin the picture. The blur ended up making the whole thing look like a watercolor painting, and I thought that my camera did a great job dealing with the low light.

On to better things

Friday was the last day of work for a co-worker of mine. He is one of the good ones, so we'll all miss him. We went to one of those old school bars with writing all over the wooden walls. Just another tag on the wall.
