I took my first Bus Stop and Crosswalk shots on March 1, 2010. I had a new 85mm f/1.4 lens and wanted to see how well it performed at night. That was my only goal. I also had an idea to walk up to a street about a half mile from my office that I...

Tag Archives: a pen and a pancake For the past few months, the decision of which image to post as number 100 for both the Crosswalk and Bus Stop series caused me to sweat a little. I did not want the pressure of picking the absolute best image, as my opinions vary over time and I do a poor job sometimes of...  Yo, people — the bus comes THIS way. TEMPORARY NOTICE: The site that hosts my images suffered an outage this morning, I’ll leave this notice up the rest of the days in case it recurs.

Technical note: the embedded music player works for me when I view the post directly, but not when I view the post on the home page. Please let me know if you have problems.

Tweet  You know it has been a cold, snowy winter, when you can look back at a photo of someone waiting at a bus stop at night in October, and think, about how warm and dry she looks. Tweet  I tried but couldn’t figure out a way to remove the light halos right by the head of the man at the bus stop. Tweet  |
