Well, I’ve recently launched a sister site to this one.  It’s my first photoblog, and I’ve been posting some images, building the library, for the last month or two.  I figured that I might as well post some of my better unrelated work in an online portfolio.  A work in progress, but enjoyable work at that.

Jury is right around the corner, and thankfully it doesn’t fall on a workday.  Will have to see what I can do about being booted off the panel, so open to suggestions

27SepTextureLove Update

a sleepless night led to this one


Using the new Flock browser, which is built ontop of the firefox platform and I have to say, I’m pleasantly surprised.  This browser makes it very easy to manage many of your online presences as well as providing the ability to blog, upload photos, email, and much much more.  Has a lot of potential, and being that it uses Firefox as the basis for the program, it is blazing fast.  The interface leaves a little to be desired, but with so many tools at the click of a mouse its hard to consider it a gripe.  I’m chalking it up to the fact that I like a pretty clean, simple interface, and Flock offers up so many useful utilities, that its hard to gripe about it.

30JunNYC Album Updates

Just a brief update letting you know about some of the new NYC shots I took.  Been having a lot of fun finding all those interesting places and angles that some may not notice.

29MayMadhattan

As I make my way through this place and all these interesting sites, I am inundated with views of splendor.  You can always find something unique and interesting to take pictures of.  Whether it be an interesting landscape or a cop directing traffic, it truly is the city that never sleeps.  I’ve updated the NYC gallery with some more of my visual escapades.  Had the chance to just shoot he proverbial “Sh!t” with an old time hometown buddy on Memorial Day which is the reason for many of the updates.  Perfect weather, sun in the sky, not a cloud to be seen. Got some new textures coming down the pipe as well, so stay tuned.

On a side note, I’ve been putting in the map coordinates for each of the pictures taken in or around NYC so you can see where these shots originated.  I look forward to your feedback…

25MayNew NYC Album

As it goes, I’m a wanderer and I like to find new things and places to go and see. Especially if these places are unique and hard to find. The thing about New York City is that there’s plenty of places like these to find. Having a digital camera gives you the freedom to take as many pictures as you want without the fear of waste. If you don’t like, you can delete it, simple as that. So in my travels in and around the boroughs of Madhattan, as I like to call it, I will be taking those pictures that are hard to find. It’s my pleasure to share them with you in the hopes that they may brighten up your day or give you the motivation to make that trip to this wonderful place I call home. Enjoy

MessyPaint.jpg HardWater.jpg

I have been enjoying my time with my new friend, the all powerful Rebel XSi, still nameless. It’s been about a week since I have had said friend, and I’ve loved every minute of it. With the 300mm lens I had some edumacation to consider.

I‘ve never used one of these zoom lenses and there’s a few things I needed to figure out. At max optical zoom, camera shake is much more prevalent. Creating the blurred background was new to me as well, at least the consciousnous of it. All in all, I’m pretty happy about my new toy and want to share the beautiful images it has produced. So please, if you see something you like, let me know and I’ll try to expand on that.  Head on over to the Textures page to navigate to the gallery and the updates.

21MayYours Truly Updates

LeatherLove2.jpg BlueWeb2.jpg

I have so many pictures I’d love to share but there’s a point where it reaches a limit.  I’ve thrown up some new pictures under the “Yours Truly” album, if you found it that is.  There’s more to come, but need to do some post-processing before I can upload the next batch.  There’s a few nice one’s in the pipe and certainly more to come.  I now have the tool of the trade, at least the camera that provides you with these glorious sights.

On a related note, the textures page now has more links which make the whole viewing process a little easier.  These links include: Updates, Popular, & Random.

There’s a lot to see and getting around to all of them can get a little daunting.  I’m no DeviantArt, but having my own photo site gives me a little more freedom than they would.  Hope everyone enjoys.

17MayAlt-Tab Window Switching

Hey now.  Don’t have much for you today, being that it’s a weekend, but what I do have for you is some pretty nifty software.  If you’ve seen the Windows Vista debacle, than you have probably seen its funky cool way of switching between windows.  I , for one, am going nowhere near that mess of an operating system.  I use XP and found this handy little software package amongst my procrastination this week.  It’s called Winflip and gives you a much nicer, cleaner, and more telling view of the running applications and switching between them.   You can find the software here.   In the meantime, I’m heading off to a buddy’s engagement party in the wonderful city of Cresskill, NJ.  So close to my hometown, I may have to ask the bus driver to swing on by the old house in the best city on Earth; Bogota, NJ.
