185/365. ... just a man with something to prove... slightly bored and severely confused ~ Postal Service (Sleeping in) — Meet Robert
Robert is a swell and fantastic guy. He's a do-gooder and maker of awesomeness. This includes visual design, music, and witty banter. My only hope is that the day he decides to publish a music album, that Erin and I get to shoot the cover art. His music reminded me of The Postal Service — just without vocals. It's really that good.
The quote, too, is fitting, if you knew him.
Anyhow, today was supposedly American Independence Day. We skipped out on any parties and had some champagne of our own. It was fun.
Finally, don't miss out on the other photo from the same night of Erin and May-Li. See that here.
Alright you strobist junkies...

113/365. I'm staring at the asphalt wondering, what's burried underneath...
... where I am ~ Postal Service (The District sleeps alone tonight)
Apparently my announcement yesterday was a bit too subtle... almost nobody got it. So let me make it clear, I am resigning from Google, and joining Twitter! Yes yes, lots of excitement. Maybe one day I'll finally meet Oprah or Shaq.
Anyhow, this shot was taken near our home. Erin had this great idea for a self portrait and did that quite nicely. I was gonna do one too, but then decided... "can I just take a picture of your legs?"
K.... on with it.. strobist fools and junkies, here you go...

Another final thing: I've received about a dozen comments and emails talking about my "style"... in requests for me to change-things-up so to speak. Let me remind me everyone that I really only have time to shoot at night (I have a day job), and I'm enjoying what I'm doing. If you're looking for something different, feel free to browse the other 11,000+ photos in my stream. It usually takes a good month or two to fully evolve to a new type of style, but I personally feel I'm trying new things every day — and hey, this isn't easy to find inspiration on a daily basis.

BACKSTORY: This is after an evening of fooling around with a wireless radio transmitter remote control for the Nikon that aparently can submit a sigal up to 100 meters. This is a lie. This was about as far as I could get and I'm only about 25 meters away. This was shot in our parking garage under poor lighting using my 200-400mm lens on a tripod. Anyhow, it's a good thing my camera has an interval timer which can essentially replace this stupid remote.
