Since I want to be done with all of the New York City images, I’m going to post the last two sets of images today.

Empire

I already wrote about how I was surprised by how much I enjoyed the Empire State Building over her:

So I won’t go over it again. I’ll just add that I could have really used a tripod on top of the Empire State Building. Even the monopod that I left in my suitcase would have really helped.

Even though Jesse and I stayed a half block away from Times Square, it wasn’t until the last night we were there that I actually took my camera down there.

The Square

A few more images from Times Square:

Next week’s Personal Photo Project of the Week involves Jill and a mirror.

Pinhole Experiment

Here are some of the more intriguing images to come off the first roll of film from the pinhole camera.

For some reason I felt compelled to buy some filters for the pinhole camera. I’m currently working on another roll of film that I hope to finish off and publish in a couple of weeks.

Next week’s Personal Photo Project of the Week will return to the 9 Emotions Project and will feature Jen and Derrick.

Nuclear Library Redux

A look at the original Nuclear Library:

A couple alternates:

I’m not sure what next week’s Personal Photo Project will be, but I’m hoping it will involve film.

Although I haven’t shot the next Redux image, it will most likely be Dead End.

Radiant Beams

I went to the early Christmas Eve Service at my church and then came back for the late night service to listen to the concert and take these pictures.

Here are some Radiant Beams alternates:

All things considered, I should have worn warmer gloves.

A Great Rock

A few more images from the A Great Rock Photo Session.

Next time I do this, I might have to seek out company.

A few weeks ago after FNSC, Dawn and Jay assisted me with my RWPE. Here are a few of the other pictures from that photo session:

The poor rope light did not survive the night.

Ain’t Distributed Right

The Ain’t Distributed Right photos were taken between Boone and Ames.

I don’t know another subject that cooperates with me less than lightning. Turtles might be close, but lightning always seems to disappear when I get ready to photograph it.

Never the Same River

Andree also considered these other two pictures:

Andree followed his “I pick so and so” paragraph with a lengthy dissertation on MegaShark vs. Giant Octopus. Can you guess why we are friends?

Never the Same River

These pictures were taken on a floody night back in June after Sara and I ate at a Lebanese restaurant nearby. I need to thank her for her assistance on this night even though I definitely burned out all of her patience… and then some.

I will need to revisit this bridge in the near future, now that the water has gone down on the Des Moines River.
