Superman and Lois
One of the best look a likes for Superman I have seen, and Lois is not far off either. Even Lex Luthor in the background is pretty close. I later found out from a friend in Florida, that he does this a lot, and he actually knew him. Small world eh?

Dinner
With Thanksgiving practically around the corner, I thought I’d remind everyone (at least for those in the United States) of the awesome food that we will all be consuming.
This was from 2 years ago. I have yet to process my photos from last year’s Thanksgiving, which I think I should…….=/
I’m hungry already
Dead Bug
Apologies, I am a bit late in posting this photo. I was a bit torn on what to post today, and I was also busy at work earlier, and I could not sneak it in. In any case, I don’t know what sort of insect this is, but I found it somewhere, and I decided to keep it in a film canister for photo purposes. Set on a white poster board, it made for a nice peaceful photo if you may.
I used my Nikon D700 with the Micro Nikkor 60mm Macro, and a Nikon SB900 flassh pointed up.

Toy cars
These were the first few days I shot of this years, very short, and very much failed 365 set. My first subject was toy cars, and I did have a ton to shoot, but a trip to Florida, and some other stuff going down quickly put a kibosh on my project. Maybe next year I can get going on it again, maybe.

Shower scene.
This was taken during Run-A-Muck back in 2010. It was a fun event, and I should seek one out and shoot one again.
These were some of the participants taking a shower after their run.

Awesome Eyes
Shot during last years New York City Comic Con (yeah, LAST YEAR, I missed this years due to procrastination and amnesia), I saw her while on my way out for a quick break. I forget which character she was from, but she had different coloured contact lenses for each eyes, and it just look awesome. Had to get a close up.

Night Runners
Disney Marathoners pounding away the miles at a desserted Walt Disney World. I spot them as we speed by in the monorail. A quick but difficult shot, hardly any light, lots of movement, but I managed to keep it steady enough to make the shot half intesting. This is merely the beginning of their journey, as well as mine.

I actually didn’t shoot this. My friend shot this, and this image is highly edited. This was during possibly the greatest vacation I ever took. End of summer 2009, I went to the Pacific Northwest for a few days for fun and relaxation. It was all of that and then some. Just travelling without and stress is a worth ten times more than the cost of the trip itself.
My friend showed me around the Seattle area, and we took a drive down to Portland, Oregon for the day. On the drive back, we elected to drive towards the Pacific Coast Highway, to stop by the Pacific Ocean. We got there a few minutes before the sun started to set. I took a few shots of my own of the sun set, and little did I know my friend was taking photos of me taking photos of the scenery. I turned around and saw her, so I decided to take a pic of her also, and this was that photo. I ended up messing around wit it a bit in photoshop, and I made it look like i was shooting the sunset instead of me taking a picture of her.

And for comparisons sake, here is the original image, straight RAW conversion to JPG.
Capping off our epic dinner at Morimoto’s was this epic dessert. At the time I was already in a food coma-bliss, and I honestly don’t remember the details of this delicious delicacy aside from the fact that it is epic.

Shot during my first month of owning the D700, and well, at a time where my hours were cut to 4 day’s every other week , hence giving me the opportunity to go out and shoot. I mostly ended up NY’s Central Park.
This particular one, I happen to catch a man preparing to play his portable piano. It wasn’t a keyboard, bit it was some sort of piano. I thought it would be a great shot to catch his silhouette, and use the rest of the park outside the arches as the backdrop. I don’t know, maybe now I might do it a little different.
