Dinner
My sweet GF made this for our dinner, 2 Reuben Sandwiches. It was quite tasty.

Chocolate Covered Onion
This is out there, and yes, the thought of onions and chocolate is not quite appealing, my buddy and I had to try this. It was very dissapointing. The chocolate crumbled off when you took a bite, and the skin was still on. I think if they used smaller onions where you can just pop it in your mouth whole would’ve worked better.
This shot was also included in Womensday.com’s online article about wierd chocolate covered foods. I think if it had bacon, it would be better.
Best way I can describe this is, if you bit an onion, and took a bite out of a Hershey chocolate bar.

This is also one of my most viewed shots on Flickr, and it’s gotten a lot ‘ew’ comments when I show them the photo.

I have a love hate relationship with Instagram. I love it for it’s quick and easy edits on photos, which makes ho-hum cell phone shots into pieces of art, and I hate it cause it’s a quick and easy way to edit photos, and makes us photographers that put hours in the digital dark room processing/editing shots look bad.
In any case, it does show off the one thing a photographer has that cannot be replaced by apps, and what not..and it’s his vision.
I hope you enjoy this quick shot I took over the weekend whilst enjoying a 6 mile walk.

Sunset
Yet another Instagram post. This was shot from my desk, nice beautiful orange sky, as the sun was setting over NYC.

This came out a while ago, a way to embed your Instgrams on to WordPress blogs. I’m quite the avid Instgrammer since it’s release for Android (follow me, instagram.com/gta86), and this news excited me.
Anyway, we did just get power back, and we are still trying to get back to normalcy. Now we have a storm, a Nor-Easter in fact hitting us up here in the north east. This will definitely slow down the recovery process from Hurricane Sandy, but it’s not as destructive. I hope everyone out there that were in the area of Sandy is alright, and getting up back on their 2 feet, and also hope that no one they personally know got the worst of it.
Situations like that make you appreciate everything that you have.
So, today’s random photo is a shot I took whilst on my commute home. Snow covered platform.

Full Moon
The return of the random photos. This was taken the night after the storm, quiet night, and I had nothing much to do, being without power and such. The moon was full that night, and with the power out, there were no street lights, and thus making it stand out much more.

This was shot using my Canon Powershot S95’s HDR mode.

Apologies for the super late post. I just got my new phone today, a Galaxy Nexus S, and I’ve been playing around with it a bit much. It is also my GF’s birthday, so, stuff had to be taken care of.
Anyhow, this was a picture shot at this massive art place in upstate NY, called Storm King art center. They have a massive expanse of land, and they have massive artwork all over the place. I don’t think we even got to explore the whole place. In one area, I just noticed a bunch of insects, bee’s, lady bugs, butterflies. I sat there observing, and I decided to just start taking photographs. I don’t have a true macro lens for my Pentax, but the DA* 50-130mm lens proved to be a worthy lens. Below is one of my personal favorites from that set.

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
