Pictures of the Day
It’s 12:30 am on Sunday morning, aka prime party time in New York. Or at least, that’s the rumor I’ve heard. Seeing as I’m old (at least in my mind) and rather uncool, I don’t get invited to parties and I don’t try to find parties to get invited to. So my Saturday nights are often somewhat “quiet” by the standards of many. Of course, many would say that blogging late on a Saturday night is automatic proof of being lame. But when you find out that I’m blogging to take a break from work (currently marking up a Description of Notes for an i-bank that wants to pitch a refinancing deal to a perspective client next Thursday), well….I have pretty much proven beyond a doubt that I am not the most “fun” person living in New York City.
Anyway (in addition to providing an oblique way to complain about working on a Saturday night), I felt like posting some pics. Today’s selection was actually taken over a month ago, when J9 and I were out in LA over Christmas. We stopped by the Frank Gherey-designed Disney Concert Hall and I spent time taking some pictures. (In my case, some = 53 pictures in about an hour.) Unfortunately, I was rather disappointed by the results. It was getting dusky while we were there, and so hand-shake contributed to a lot of blurry pics. Also, looking through my pics is like a textbook with examples of mediocre composition and poor use of space.
Here are a few of the better results:


I’d like to say that this one has that whole “cool edgy blur effect” going on, but most people would probably recognize that as a lie and write it off as low-quality camera shake. You be the judge.
