Yeah, you’re right, Els; it will be a lower burden of proof. I did get some photos, but it was near dusk and they’re with my cell phone. I think they’ll still tell my story, but I really really wish I’d thought to bring my SLR. When he called, we rushed out without really thinking about the need to grab documentation tools. My insurance agent did say that if we succeeded in getting the ticket reversed that would help our case. Regardless, everyone’s OK and that’s the important part; the rest is just money and that comes and goes.

Amen. Glad everyone’s okay.

I like the first one and Roosevelt as well, linguine

But this is legal in farktography? I kinda thought things needed to be global, but then I was reading (somewhere) that it’s usable here (and damn–just something else I gotta learn!!)

[ravnostic]

Nice find, both in product and venue.

Glad for that last, CISS; I was going to ask about a dog statue…

I went out tonight to harvest nuts, but I didn’t like the patrons at the bar…

Ah…I get it. I was just wondering how he got on the list his first week.

[ravnostic]

I believe Else indicated some picadillo about scheduling that is precluding that at the moment? Besides, after Dec. 21st, does it really matter? If you’re an optimist, you can shoot for the 404 Error; that’s imminant…

Elsinore; that shot was taken at 5:30, sunset was at 5:20. The street faces dead-west, so the sunset was actually quite a bit to the left of the frame–about 30 or so degrees. 1/40th second, at ISO 800 with exp. compensation set to +1 1/3, 18mm (29mm equiv). Also might have helped that I was only 1/2 mile from all the Phoenix high rises which provided some extent of reflected light from all the glass buildings.

All that being said, though, I need you to pull the picture. :o( It’s the one where I edited out the telephone lines. I’m posting the fark-friendly version in it’s place.

Good deal, Barracuda 🙂

Hey Rav: How did you get the dark side of your Hotel shot to be so bright shooting into a sunset/sunrise?

I’d have to check the exif data on that particular one; but I basically shot a bunch of frames after the sun went down and for about 1/2 hour, looking for the right combination of remnant daylight and neon brightness to expose it moreso than it was when I was shooting it last week in the total darkness. I’ll get back to ya with the time of that shot when I get home from work.

It’s fine as far as that goes, but I’m actually kind of retiring from dance, so it wouldn’t be as representative of me these days.!

The farktography community mourns….

//sheds a tear…

[ravnostic]

All hail He who is Zod!

Elsinore; something with a belly and chimes, perhaps? Or is that too un-Den-motherly?

[ravnostic]

Now THAT is cool!! Awesome, swampa!!

[ravnostic]

God bless you! (Or spaghetti monster bless you, or geisuntyte, whichever you prefer). You’re a god among mortal beings.

Wheeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

[ravnostic]

New stuff abounds. Look, I have an avatar! (that feature hadn’t worked in forever, or at least not in my farktography history.) What are the chances, oh Zekeiness, of using my own gif for the purpose?

//I know it’s a lot to ask…
