BIKE HERE July 2nd, 2009

 

2009-07-02-bike-here.jpg


   
A new bike rack was installed (somewhat) recently at the Dupont South metro station.  It is a pretty clever design saying “bike here” through the design of the rack.  It looks functional enough but might be a little awkward.  While I am certainly a proponent of more bike racks and particularly attractive ones the main function of the rack — a secure, accessible location to lock up your bike — needs to not be overlooked for art and aesthetics sake.  The Dupont “bike here” rack achieves this balance much more than some I’ve seen.

slipping silently though the foliage June 24th, 2009

 

2009-06-24-sun-tree.jpg


   
Shooting directly into the sun can yield some pretty interesting results.  It will vary quite a bit based on the lens and what the light might be filtering through ( a tree in this case) but it generally works out okay.  I like the starburst design that is happening here.  To me it looks like someone or something should be emerging from the heavens to bestow wisdom and goodwill upon the people (or that is how they would show it on a cheesy Lifetime special anyway).  This shot was taken with my Olympus Pen EE-S, which is a half frame 35mm.
