can even a normal street in a normal winter day in a normal town with normal houses and electric lines going every which way be beautiful?

even a quite afternoon movie can be beautiful.  of course those that know my photography will know that the sun shooting past someone’s head always helps!  there is beauty all around waiting to be noticed.  is this beautiful?

I love this time of year when the sun is so low on the horizon all day.  It made for a nice shot while I checking out the first emperor show at the high museum.

I’m really not a food photographer, but I’ve been known to shoot food from time to time.  we are on day 5 of looking for interesting ethnic food while counting down our friends amber and carter’s last days in Atlanta.  we took the easy road today by going to taqueria del sol for mexican.

we seem to be on a bit of a run to see how many interesting places we can eat in a row…and I do mean interesting.  There is the great place on buford highway in Atlanta called chef liu.  great dumplings and even a good attempt at soup dumplings.  

whimsy press

hey all you creative types.  don’t forget to head over to the whimsy press open house on thursday from 4-6pm.  I’m  partial to their great paper, cards, notebooks etc.  it’s got nothing to do with the fact that my wife, wendy, helps to run things over there, I swear!  I found this cool shot of their entourage from an older trip to the nyc gift show, where they will be representin’ again this year january 25-29.  see you there!

lumix LX3

I finally got my new walking around camera to replace the one from last week’s incident with the car.  It was a bit of a tough decision between the G10, the GX200, or the updated version of my trusty lumix.  I’ll spare you the details, but it came down to trust, and which one will easily fit into my pocket…in other words which one will I carry around more often.  As Jay Maisel says…its hard to take pictures in you don’t have a camera!  Plus if it megapixels I want I’d lust carry the mark 3!  Check out this quickie shot of our japanese maple tree…
