Photo 365 - On Assignment

Hello There Everyone and Welcome to the Blog

I have three sets of photos here. The first is my photo project (the original page) entitled Photo 365 - On Assignment. It was a spin on a 365 photo project. I love the idea of the 365 project, but I needed a little more structure. I also needed some help getting out of my photographic comfort zone. I decided to take suggestions for monthly themes from the people around me and those who view my photos. I finished the project on January 15th, but please feel free to go back and enjoy my year in pictures.

The second page is dedicated to my favorite photographic subject, nature. Right now that page contains just photos I have taken in Everglades National Park. I just finished updating it, adding more photos, captions, and common and scientific names for all the shots. Please enjoy!

The third page is from the second UM Spring Football game in 2010. This was my first foray into sports photography. I was "working" this event with a friend of mine who blogs for a Hurricane's sports blog. All the shots came from the stands because we didn't have sideline passes, but I still got some decent shots. I hope to update this page with shots from this year's spring game. Go Canes!

Enjoy the blog!

Photo 365 - On Assignment - March (Begins with M)

Man-Made

I've been driving past these cranes for the last last six months on my way to work each morning. They look very cool in the pre-dawn light each morning and I've been wanting to take a picture. I decided to swing by today about an hour before sunset to get some pics. I noticed the reflections in a building across the street as I was driving up and liked it more than the actual cranes. The reflection also adds an extra level of depth to the man-made idea. The glass for the windows is man-made, and they are reflecting the cranes (which are also man-made) that are creating a man-made building.
