This is my new favorite photo of the Terminal, taken from outside of Arty’s during the Alive Night party on Friday. It’s a nice, full shot where you can see the tower, the concourse arch, and even the baggage building, yet it’s far enough away that you don’t see all the gritty details. I’m thinking about having these printed and adding them to our merchandise lineup.
I’m catching up on my blog-reading and ran across this post on BuffaloPundit’s blog about “The Office”. Personally, British humor just doesn’t jive with me, so when I watched the British version (prior to the American version coming out) I gave it an “eh” and let it go. But I’ve been watching the American version…
Time has a good article called The Clean Energy Scam on how the currently-politically-correct biofuel movement is exasperating environmental, economic, and social issues, not fixing them. Meanwhile, by diverting grain and oilseed crops from dinner plates to fuel tanks, biofuels are jacking up world food prices and endangering the hungry. The grain it takes to…
… to NOT have a basement! There have been way too many stories about basements flooding, and I know if I had one it would be fully finished and probably have my home theatre, music gear, and computers in it. One think I learned from listening to the radio during all this are the various…
Time flies when… uh… you’re stuck at home due to the Coronavirus. Somehow I’ve managed to go nearly 3 months without posting an update here. There have been the occasional Instagram pics if you’re following along there, but I’ll bring everyone up to speed here too. We had about a long lull in January/February where…
Excellent photo, Derek! Go for it on the merchandise…
Very nice photo, great composition!
Thanks! One of these days I’m going to get a “real” camera. I’m stretching what I can do with my point & shoot 4 megapixel. Of course, some lessons or pointers wouldn’t hurt either. 🙂
You can actually do quite a bit with 4 megapixels. I was using a 3.1 point & shoot for a while before purchasing my “real” camera. I managed to get some good 8×10 prints from the 3.1, although you really couldn’t go larger without noticeable pixelation. Good composition is more important, in most cases, than an expensive camera. A good rule to follow is the “rule of thirds.”
I agree, Mike. I’ve been able to do quite a bit with my camera so far. But there are some shots that I know I’d like to get that the camera just can’t do – crisp foreground/blurred background shots that you need a longer lens for.
The best thing about digital is you can shoot and shoot and shoot and once in awhile you get a nice shot.
It helps to have a good subject to be shooting as well, dear. 😉
