100 shots!
Walking stick takes over the world.JPG
My second grade class' pet walking stick was one inch from my camera when I took this shot.
Note: NOT photoshopped, NOT altered in ANY way (even simple color correction or cropping)
This is my 100th photo-a-day! Yay!

Having fun taking dorky pictures of each other.

Train tracks.JPG
Stopping on the train tracks on the way home. It's way before sunset, so the lighting is really harsh, which makes for a killer perspective.

Gas station bulldozer.JPG
I've always wondered what's underground at a gas station. Now we all know. This was a tricky nighttime shot, by the way. Best viewed full screen.

Hummer running board reflection.JPG
A self-portrait with drummer Mark Gusek--it's a reflection in the running board of a Hummer belonging to recording artist Robert Kochis™. It reminds me of the U2 video Mysterious Ways.

Transparent laptop
This is a real (NOT Photoshopped) picture.
1) Took a picture of the house ; 2) Used it as my desktop background; 3) Took a picture of that. It's my first try, and I like it.

Good Ol' Cash Register.JPG
My haircutter Fritz has the coolest cash register. Here's a macro shot of the $4 button. And visit Fritz at Campus Kuts in Glendora.

Where's the tree?
I thought they were adding trees to schools these days. Guess not. The back of my classroom is now unproperly shaded.

Joshua Tree Video Wall
I've been reluctant to add Photoshopped pictures here, but I'm trying this (obvious) one out. I didn't take these pictures today, but I did work on them extensively in Photoshop today, so it counts for the photo-a-day. We're working on some articles in a book for my advanced Photoshop class--this idea is titled "3-D Curved Video Wall." I hope you like it. Comments are welcome (it's a work in progress!).

C) The air is too dry.
D) All of the above.
E) None of the above.

Car-fixing-white-haired Hippie Man
While stopped at an intersection, this guy casually got out of his car, played with the engine, and got back in. Go figure.

I would not want a job that involved using a chainsaw 50 feet above the ground.

View from steering wheel
The top, black part of the photo is the steering wheel. The camera was held chest-level. I took two pictures: one exposure for the world, one for the interior.

Presence knob
Macro shot of my Fender Deville guitar amp. I like my presence just past 8--the tone's not too bright, but not even close to dull.

First picture ever (by Everet)
This is the first photograph EVER taken by Everet Still. He is one year old, and his dad is an amazing photographer. Everet was looking at himself on my camera's LCD and decided he wanted to push the shutter button... I think it looks really good for NEVER using a camera before. Besides, he took it of me!

Hotel sign
This is in Santa Monica, near 3rd Street, but it feels more like it's the new set of Gilligan's Island.
