Very Very Green

20111120-185112.jpgI just really like how the green looked in this photo. Somewhere above Montezuma Upper Falls in Costa Rica.

I don’t know this guy

guy-i-dont-know-IMG_2299.JPGBut I really like the way this photo came out. The colors and the way the sun washes out part of the right hand side of the photo.

This is the start of the river from the big falls in Montezuma, Costa Rica.

Seagull in motion

I thought this one was going to get away from me I caught him just as he took off. Downtown Detroit at the Riverwalk.

The Red Cedar River

red-cedar-msu-IMG_1647.JPGThe Red Cedar river at Michigan State University. Loved hanging out here (by the admin building) when I was a student (and after). Taken from the Wells Hall bridge.

Taking the train in Chicago

quincy-chicago.JPGSomeone help me, is this a train stop, an “L” (“EL”) stop or what is the proper term for this in Chicago?

So I love public transport, Detroit is severely missing it, mostly because everyone owns their own car and one for each of the kids too (I’m exaggerating, but just a little).

This looks like it was taken at Quincy station and I’d say I’m facing north (but I could be mistaken on that).

I liked the interesting bug

IMG_1065-some-bug.jpgI don’t have any idea what kind of bug this is or what kind of flowers. But I thought the bug came out okay for an iPhone 4 camera and the focus was interesting. There were some better looking flowers, but I couldn’t get the bug to pose over there.

This was taken on Hines Drive near Telegraph. There is a bunch of flowers (and wild stuff) in a plot on the far side of the soccer field closer to telegraph.

Detroit River Sunset

sunset-detroit-IMG_1493.JPGLove all the oranges and that you can see the birds, the contrails, the Ambassador Bridge and a tiny bit of Windsor, Canada…

I’m thinking that I took this from Belle Isle (probably at Sunset Park), but I’m not 100% certain (wish I had the GPS in my digital SLR).

Not the wedding photos I was expecting

For some reason this wedding party decided to take some pictures in an abandoned building. I wish I’d gotten my camera little quicker to get a few more snapshots of them walking away from the scene (with maybe some better lighting). I thought the bridal party looked kind of interesting in this empty building.
