Saw That, Did This: Ghostbusters Car

This car was at a local street fair. The obvious shot of course would be the car. But I don't much care for doing the obvious. Besides, I'm sure a hundred other people now have snapshots of that car. As do I, hehe.

Saw That, Did This: Post Hole

Feb. 18, 2018 | San Diego | Galaxy Note 3 The left image is what I saw while hiking, and on the right is how I chose to portray it. The subject was the empty cement post hole (left of my shadow). This is just to give some insight into how I interpret what I see. Often times things are more than what they first seem when looked at from a different perspective. I like to look for the non-obvious, subjects which might be missed by just a casual look.

Follow the Money

You don't always know where the money came from, or where it's going to take you.

An odd way to tile a restroom floor. Yes, those are real nickels. The room was lit by a very dim incandescent bulb, so I turned on my flash.

Reflecting The Truth

Scanning some of my work from school, way back when. Playing around with scale and combining hobbies. The tractor-trailer is a 1/25 scale model I built.
