Seattle, Day 1 — 04.20.13

So I took Jocelyn up a couple weekends ago for a surprise Birthday trip to Seattle and we got to spend a couple days exploring the city, wandering through Pike Place Market and getting rained on by the infamous Seattle weather.

I ALSO got to spend the weekend giving the new Sony RX1 a spin.

I’ll write more about it later, but all-in-all I’m pretty stunned at the quality of the images from such a small, portable, easy-to-use camera. Plus, it’s full frame, baby :)

Anyways, I’ll post more in the next couple days, but until then…

Putting Cole’s Litely presets through the paces a little bit.

I love how true the colors are and how they bring out that extra little detail that I would’ve missed otherwise.

Well done, sir :)

I usually use this thing for photos, but in light today’s horrors, what the fuck…

These are the most focused, poignant and just-plain-right words I’ve read all afternoon.

briennewalsh:

As someone who frequently voices her opinions on the Internet, I am hesitant to say anything at all about the shootings in Connecticut today. What can possibly be said that doesn’t sound self aggrandizing and preachy, especially in light of the terrible grief the community in Sandy Hook must be feeling? My grief is nothing.

What needs to be said are things I cannot speak to, because I don’t know enough about them. What needs to be said are things that our President is too cautious, or too politically interested, to say himself. What needs to be said are things that most of my friends on Twitter and Facebook are not afraid to say at all, and for that, I am grateful for free speech.

There needs to be an entire overhaul in our gun laws. There needs to be a change in rhetoric. People do not need guns forany reason. But the more guns there are, the more people—including our law enforcement officials—will need them. Guns need to be taken out of our homes, off our streets, and off the marketplace.

Money needs to be poured into our health care system, so that mentally ill people have easier access to psychiatric care that is not humiliating, demeaning, and worst of all, prohibitively expensive. They need to have easier access to health care than they do to guns, which can be bought over the Internet. The gun lobbies should go fuck themselves first, and then take all of the money they’ve been pouring into fighting for the second amendment into social programs. I wish I could argue “why” better; I wish someone in my government was arguing it for me.

I am loathe to say this—but let the images of what happened flood the Internet. Let those kids be interviewed by TV cameras. Let the bloody pictures of the aftermath be released to the media. People need to actually see what it means that in our country, a single man can walk into an elementary school, and shoot 100 rounds of ammunition. That he can kill 20 children and 7 adults like they’re avatars in a video game.

Fuck the man who did it, but fuck the system even more for letting him exist in it.

thanks amy.

It’s been quite a year. Between officially entering into my mid-thirties (YIKES!), spending what seems like half the year on an airplane, a wild year at work, AND getting ready to marry to the most wonderful and amazing girl in the world—it looks like we’re piling one more thing onto the craziness…

We’re moving to SF!

I’ve been transferred out to Cupertino with work, and while we probably won’t live in San Francisco proper—it’s looking like somewhere in the peninsula (Redwood City)—it’s happening. Crazy.

Plus, shooting in the Northwest is going to be incredible, and a welcome change of pace from the cramped corners of the city.

To be honest, it was a much tougher decision than I think either of us anticipated, given how much we love it here in Brooklyn—and how much we’ll miss our friends, family, lazy Saturdays in Ft. Greene park, our church family, Dino, The General Greene, and a stunning view of Manhattan—but I think we’ve finally come to terms with the idea of the mountains, the ocean, “Sunny & 72 degrees” and some space ;)

Even though it always hasn’t been the smoothest of sails, NYC has been an amazing home the past 6 1/2 years, and I’ll miss it incredibly. We’re both incredibly grateful for everything we’ve been blessed with and both made lifelong friends here and the city will always have our hearts, but it’s time for life’s new adventure!

Here we go…

THE SKY! — Vol. 1

iamkory — Tue, 04 Sep 2012 12:09:45 -0400

I’ve found that if you’re into shooting pictures from airplanes you fall into one of two camps…you’re either a “takeoff & landing” shooter or a “sky” shooter.

I fall into the latter camp and given that I’ve been spending more than my fair share of time on airplanes of late, I decided to share some shots with you in the form of some, I think, pretty sweet wallpapers for your laptop, iPhone & iPad…AND in celebration of me doing a retina-y update to my site this past weekend, I figured I’d share them in retina as well :)

I’ve got TONS of these, so I’ll be sharing a new set every week for the next few weeks or so.

Hope y’all enjoy ‘em!
