Here’s a 30 minute exposure of the southern tip of Canandaigua Lake, with Naples, NY and the Cohocton Wind Farm glowing in the distance.

Scooby is having a lot of fun.
How much do I love my car? So much.
Stop sign in the middle of the road…
Mid-stage.

Toxin Dioxin (by steelopus)
Went to my first ROC City Roller Derby bout last night. The lighting sucked for photography and it was brutally loud, but the action was good.
I might have joined a long list of fans with a crush on Toxin Dioxin. This can’t end well.
also, green!

She thinks she missed the train to Mars.
She’s out back counting stars.

Luck…
Patience…
But mostly just dumb luck.

Tweaking the photo made it ugly as heck… but revealed a second streak!
I caught one! (by Stephen Lopez)
Click through for the big picture, it’s probably tough to see it on the dashboard.
In the lower left quadrant you can see the streak. :-)
Sometimes, living in Upstate New York is not so bad.
I love this place. It is, in my opinion, the most underrated region of our country.
OK. I feel better now that I’ve spent 10 minutes shitting this out in Photoshop.
It’s simple goddamn geography. Do yourselves a favor and look at an atlas once in a while. I recommend the Gazetteer.
SERENITY NOW! SERENITY NOW!

Here I am last Friday at Rally New York wearing full rain gear and pretending to be a photographer. It looks like my camera bag is wearing a diaper. I’m wearing a hat (very rare)… backwards (even more rare, but necessary when pretending to be a photog). It was a fun weekend.
Ken Block on SS14 of the 2009 Rally New York - Monticello, NY
Here’s one of my best from today. I shot 400+ pictures but was fighting rain and low-light all day and couldn’t really nail down a good setting. I’m hoping for better weather tomorrow so I can shoot at something better than ISO 1200+, +3 exposure, 1/200 shutter, etc…
What are you all doing this weekend? Oh? Yeah? That sounds sorta fun, I guess.
I’m gonna spend Friday and Saturday watching Ken Block tear up the roads in and around the southern Catskills region of NY during Rally New York. Yeah. That’s Ken attempting to kill a wayward snowboarder in that picture. It’s too bad he gets so much recognition for his stunts and daredevil work because he’s a truly talented driver.
This will be my first live Rally event and I’m quite excited. The weather forcast is for a steady rain all day Friday and Saturday, which should make the roads slick and dirty, which is usually more exciting for fans (and treacherous for the drivers). Some of us get excited about Morrissey concerts, some get excited about booze, some get excited about Disney… I get excited about Rally.
Wooooooooo!
