The Biggest Engine You Can Touch

When you put your hand on the side of this locomotive you can feel the engine purring.

Wait. I think I just went a little too far here. Lets just say they're really cool hot.

A Vertical For Your Viewing Pleasure

I rarely, if ever, do verticals anymore. It's like we're cropping out whats on the left and right of the image. But sometimes they really do shout VERTICAL.

Disney Hall

I may be going overboard with all this B&W conversion stuff but the Disney Hall does look good in B&W doesn't it?

CalTrans Atrium

I've always enjoyed using Black & White film. Almost always Tri-X. But with digital cameras I haven't converted much to black & white because I just didn't like the look.

Then came Lightroom 4. I actually didn't do anything other than select the Black & White preset 'B&W Look 2.'

I do some Basic adjustments in the Develop module after I've converted to B&W but usually they're minor.

Next time I go to downtown Los Angeles I may shoot everything with converting to B&W in mind.

Why I Take MetroLink

$9 for all day parking. And a round trip on Metrolink for this senior is only $10.

Spent the day downtown and the total price was $25.

And when I got back home I was still ready to party.
