We went to Mission Beach in San Diego last night on a crowded Saturday night... You wouldn't know it by how I placed them, but this was on a busy walkway, and there were lots of people on the beach as well. It is all about angles. They are such a sweet couple, and I wanted to create some beach memories for them. I hope that they love the silhouettes I made for them.

The Shuttle in Spacedock

This was shot in the new Air and Space Museum on DC. Yes, not that old one that I used to think was cool when I was a kid. This is a new and improved center that is completely unbelievable. I had a small argument with a security guard that would not let me take my tripod. He said I needed a “blue card." I asked how to get that and he said the only person that could possibly give it to me was probably at home. There were a number of bureaucracies where I could have filed a series of complaints, but only if such complaints were filled out in a way as pre-approved by other bureaucracies.

But, I did have the Nikon D3S as a backup, and I fired this one off. It was a 4-exposure HDR from -2 to +1. ISO 400, 23mm, f/6.7 and 1/6 second shutter speed. The +2 exposure was too blurry, and I got most of the light I needed out of the +1 anyway.

The Hoover Dam is a nerd's delight. It's about a 30 minute drive from Vegas. Construction started in 1931 and was completed in 1936. A whole city -- Boulder City -- was created to house the people that worked on it and the town is still there today (population 15,000). I took a tour of the dam last week, and it's pretty awesome to walk inside the dam itself and see the power generators up close. It's amazing to see the towers, poles and wires at extreme angles on the cliff shooting out in a thousand directions to the millions of homes they power. The generators supply power to Nevada, Arizona and California. This was very hard to photograph... I'm gonna go back and try again this week.
