a one-second exposure while driving home. I've been working on getting motion into my shots lately. Of the shots quite similar to this one, I feel this is the strongest (since I've been working on it, you know).

Freeway post-crash, originally uploaded by billselak.

That's my (intact) car on the freeway shoulder. I got hit on the freeway. They closed the 210 for a bit to let emergency vehicles on. Here's what it looked like while I waited to file a police report. I'm ok.

btw, most of why this picture is amazing is that the 210 is empty at 5pm. (There was quite a bit of traffic before this.)

This huge puddle is outside of my rock climbing gym--it reminds me of M.C. Escher.

The Smokehouse Combo is a crowd-pleaser. It's also a Robert-pleaser.

I went rock climbing out a Joshua Tree today with some friends. We finished climbing just in time to drive to Key's View for sunset.

This pipe is sticking out of the ground in front of my classroom. I hope it will connect to something, someday. Or, maybe it's like that game Pipe Dream where you had to connect the pipes before the water caught up to it. And the person working on this is just really bad at that game.

This logo makes me want to avoid being electocuted. I was waiting at the gas station when I noticed this on an electrical-type box. And I thought only Canadians had cute warnings on dangerous equipment.

Some freshly trimmed trees at my school this morning. I like the depth the fog gives. I like that there was fog in West Covina (to take neat pictures of). Other teachers wondered what I was doing when I took this.

I saw this magazine poster while hanging out with Brent, so I put it in front of him and told him to look like an ironwoman. It worked.
