Eager

An eager customer awaits his late-night treat.

I shot this photo on a missions trip to Antalya, Turkey a couple summers ago (The summer of 2010). As I was walking along the luminescent yellow pyramid of corn caught my eye, and I composed this shot in about a second or so. I was pleased with the anticipation portrayed through the customer, and the innocent simplicity of the vendor. 

Urban Overcast

Frank Gehry's Walt Disney Concert Hall is truly magnificent. This creation is just one of his fingerprints that he has graced us with. The majority of photos I took of this vivacious piece of architecture were solely focused on the building itself. What I like about this particular image over all of the others I took is this one gives the viewer context of the location of this concert hall; amidst dreadfully dull buildings, this unique masterpiece graces its surroundings with an unearthly presence.

Two by Two

While staying at the Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles, CA earlier this December, one of the employees told me how to get on the roof of this 12-story hotel. This certain door down the hallway, he told me, was the only door with roof access that would not set off the alarm. As I took my first steps on the roof, I looked down and saw these businessmen rushing off to work. Amidst the relentless chaos, I framed a relatively harmonious image via precise placement of my subjects.
