Trying to get off my ass and shoot more these days. Found a nice landscape nearby...Noir might know where this is
Still can't decide if I like the B&W version or if I should mess around with color. I had a version with the B & G channels removed...Looked like a CD cover shot. I'm too left-brained so I'm going with B&W for now...
The charles has been an art theatre in downtown B'more for decades - it's sort of forced a revitalization of the area around it after awhile just because it was there and the damned thing wouldn't die . Afew years ago they multiplexed it and (finally) put in new seats and a year or two after that other fun cultural things started appearing around it (good places to eat, a live theatre) so it's doing what cool things are supposed to do - grow .
It's where I go when I want to see interesting movies. Like Anime, kungfu movies, real live art movies - stuff a normal theatre wouldn't touch cuz they won't sell enough popcorn.
Otherwise if it's just some big box office thing I'll go see it at the Muvico theatre in the area - the sound is better, altho the ambiance is kinda sucky .
Or my other favorite theatre is the Senator it's freakin' huge, it's got the best sound system in town, and the folks at lucasfilms love it. I've seen all the starwars movies there, the LOTR movies, Amadeaus, Singing in the Rain (lemme tellya, THAT was awesome!) - it's just a great place for movies . Hopefully they'll get the Starwars movie there - it's starting to look like not tho . Sigh.
lol - sorry, I'm into movies and theatres - what can I say, I'm a geek .
Oh good. That's just around the corner. I'll keep her and your FIL in my thoughts.
I'll let you know about this weekend. I am allergic to something that has been causing a nasty allergic reaction on my face of all places. If it clears up, I'm game.
What did you have in mind?
Picked upa a 2Gig Compactflash card at Costco earlier this week. I can officially shoot 810 images on one card now so I guess that's one less excuse for not shooting more.
Family came in from back East today. I'll have to do the obligatory meet & greet sometime later this week. Golf on Saturday. So upper middle-class American of me.
Lil does your family know you live a delightfully decadent double Life shooting pin ups for a sweet website!!!
Your pics of your wife are delightful!
Here's to you!

I want to send out a thanks to all the great folks I've met over the last couple of days. There's so many great threads and posts, and discussions, and GIRLS!
I'm totally stoked to see a pretty happenin' photo forum. I'm working on getting some more of my stuff posted in the hopes of getting better at what I'm striving to become.
Happy 4th!
