Apologize for the hiatus for the last few weeks, but we had a big project go live at work, and with the Easter holiday and Dyngus Day, things were a bit busy. I actually started this for last Friday and never got a chance to finish it. So let’s get back on track… #1…

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…

Hooters in China….. I like them more and more all the time.
Have seen many of your photos, but I don’t really remember alot of them not to say that they aren’t good but there are a few here that have really caught my eye — the black and white tree lined pathway is amazing. I also really enjoyed the sunset skyline shot and night lites shot. Very good shots Derek from what looks like an amazing place to visit.
