This is a ship that I haven't worked on in some time . . . in fact, looking at the timestamp, it's been a year! I really need to get back to modeling. It's a shame to leave it unfinished.

I need to shoot more . . . This image was four years old, and since I don't have anything new I thought I'd go back and find a shot and mess with it a bit.

I took this on July 4 while on the way to the fairgrounds for the fireworks show. The fireworks were great, but photographing them turned out to be somewhat difficult.

it's been a while since I posted, so here are some pics from the Taste of Syracuse a couple weeks ago
the camera I used I got for less than $20, so I didn't know what I would get when I had the film developed . . . despite the massive light leaks and lack of focus I think these came out okay

Carousel Center Food Court

A local radio station is holding a fundraiser for the Children's Miracle Network here in the Carousel Center Food Court. The 'talent' are up onstage doing their show (I can't hear them) while three 'barkers' are standing in front of the stage handing out flyers. I notice something while watching: some people walk right past without stopping, some catch the eye of one of the people handing out flyers and take one and keep going. Others stop and drop their money into the upturned water cooler jug. Groups of people seem more likely to give if one of their group gives first. Peer pressure is a powerful and subversive and often unnoticed force in our lives.
