Snap below almost home after hastily departing the bar at evidently haunted Birroteca this cocktair hour. Stopped on way back from picking up big print from post immediately below in Hunt Valley. Also had one done from the Ransom Notes flight. Click here or on the snap below to see the apparitions.
The same but different
Once again a same place but differnt from last week. Had intentions to try some street shooting in DC, DuPont, M Street, wherever. Just find it hard to think of shooting strangers on the street in DC — not even Philly action much less Manhattan. Got a late start, traffic cross town in B'more was slow, so said the hell with it and headed closer. To Ellicott City.
That gym stuff must be working becuase I saw a lot more of the place today, mostly the up part of it. Place is really in a gulch, no wonder it gets hammered with flash floods. Nobody on the streets to speak of so settled for the usual structural stuff. Finished up at Birroteca with a Kale Salad and some other stuff not quite so on the recommended list.
Click here or on the snap to see a bunch in a gallery over at Smugmug. All with the A7r — travelled very light just the FE 35 and 55. Is nice. All processed with VSCO faux Kodak Gold 200.

Home
Three Smugmug galleries; Air and Space Museum, Taneytown Cars and Along the Road. Click the preceeding names or the snaps below to see the galleries. Fair warning, there are a lot of snaps from the Air and Space Museum.
First time at Air and Space Museum since 2004 and a Canon 10D. Today was the A7r with the FE 55 and the Canon 14, 24 TS-E, and 100 Macro. Taneytown is a revisit from a couple of years ago.
Green eggs and ham...
No sam I am not, 'cause this is about something green and something ham — but green hair and prosciutto at Birroteca. The end of todays line, after a visit to the Rawlings Conservatory and spin thru Druid Hill Park. Abstracts from the Conservatory and structures from the park. Structures in color, vivid Fuji Fortia color, delivered via Sony and the A7r VSCO and. Some in the conservatory with the Canon 100L macro but most with the killer FE 55 f/1.8. Plenty of snow from the other day but a very comfortable sunny and windless 28 outside. Hot and miserably humid in the Mediterranean (Green) House, couldn't wait to get back outside to my New England-like prefered temperature.
Two galleries on smugmug. The abstracts can be seen by clicking here and the park structures by clicking here. And, oh, check out the green hair below.
