128/365. One tequila, two tequila, three tequila, floor ~ George Carlin

May he rest in peace....

Tonight was interesting because I literally took a gamble. I packed three lightstands, three flashes, three gels, and the stubby (and of course my camera). I left the umbrellas and softboxes at home and really thought "what the hell am I going to do?"...

Even after I decided I liked a spot, I setup each lightstand still not knowing why... then randomly found a paper bag on a bench with an empty bottle of Patron inside. I pulled it out, set it on this water drain grill thingy, then spread apart the lights... took a snap.... liked it... slightly adjusted the lights, then snapped again... and this is what you see now :)

You lighting rehab clinic folk read on...

35/365. Grab a brew. Don't cost nothin'. ~ Bluto (Animal House)

This is my beer, that I drank. Yes, I drank it... but it was for artistic purposes only! Not because I enjoyed it!

Today Dave walked me around a side of Google I never been to with a pond, cool trails, and lots of leaves (as if it were still fall!). The next two photos before this one are from that same walk. It was a nice break from staring at code all day — I must say Greasemonkey, Firebug, GMonkey, and Gmail do not play well together!

ANYWAY, Happy Bokeh Wednesday Everyone! See you tomorrow.

We could call it "alco-bokeh" — but let's just not. Cheers to a great weekend. Now let's start a new week.
