Char-LEE BOT.

This is what you get when you mix the Tin Toy Robot, Charlie Brown, and Existentialism.

I'm going to do more of these, either of other famous cartoons, or just the peanuts.
(if you click on it, it's eyes blink, and it's kinda mesmerizing)

Soulless

I thought that the outcome of this photo made the buildings seem, hollow, non existant, almost a dead feel.

In Time

An elderly man we passed on the Chicago trip (the China Town portion), I wanted to take a candid shot, so I kept my camera at my side and took the picture (I adjusted the focus on a wall that was about the same distance from me that the man was) But I had the camera to high and did not get the little boy next to him.

The Mime

This is the Cloud Gate (aka The Bean) sculpture on the AT&T Plaza (stupid companies taking over Chicago) in Millennium Park.I took it at an angle I have never seen somebody take before, I was able to get some of the Jay Pritzker Pavilion (a realy sweet place when lit at night) and most of the sky, giving it the name The mime, since it "mimmics" the sky.

The Son Comes

Nothing much to say, I just liked where the statue was in relation to the window, and the lighting was great, just had the wrong film in, which caused the fuzzyness

Tell it like it is

I thought that this placement was kinda ironic, as the Jesus statue is by the window with him carying the cross, and it's like the Angel is explaining it to him.
I picked this one out because of that scene, and I'm happy with how the lighting turned out.(same church as Overlook and Saving Light)

Overlook

This is the outside of the giant Saint Mary of the Angels (I must correct myself on "saving light", it's at Saint Mary of the Angels)
Well, other then being one huge church, it is run by the opus dei; a part of the Catholic church, no, they are not psycho killers.
