Framed Views
Little set shot through windows while I was in San Diego. These were the views I saw everyday as I would show up for work at the hotel. Enjoy.
Sailing Days
I snuck out of work early one day and walked along the bay and took this shot. Nice cinematic crop and I was very good to go with it.
Sense of Distance
I posted this before and I didn’t realize it until I finished the edits and did the export into PhotoShop that it gently reminded me I already went through the edits. The thing is, I wasn’t happy with the first edit I did but posted it anyways. I went way too much on the gradient and it was way too blue.

Dalena
Saw the ship from the walk along the harbor. It was the only one with activity on it. This marina versus all the others is where the working fishing vessels dock at. You can also catch a glimpse of the USS Enterprise Midway in the background.

Penn Hotel
I saw this and knew I was going to make it black and white to give it the classic feel. No idea how it really came out because editing on a 15″ screen is tough but it looks good to me. It feels like it was shot back in the era of film.
Classic Theater
Just like how the tower of the theater goes into the sky.
People You Meet
Saw this guy and had to take a picture. I can relate some how with him.
