Taking Off and Landing

Spent some time around O'Hare last night.  Here is the whole set.  It was a beautiful night for a flight.

I tried some post processing by layering multiple photos on top of each other...

Taking the L to Navy Pier

I took some photos on the L and then around Navy Pier early Sunday morning.  I'm not sure if any of these are good enough to post to FineArtAmerica to try and sell so for now they are just on Flickr.

Night Game

We celebrated our 2nd anniversary Chicago style by enjoying nachos at the Cubby Bear and then taking in a Cubs night game.  We took part in the time honored tradition of buying tickets off a scalper taking the 50/50 chance they were legit tickets...which they were and they only cost us $10 per ticket!  It was a beautiful night.  You can check out Anthony's pictures on his Flickr page.

Vegas...For Work?

We went to Las Vegas last week Monday through Wednesday for work...we swear!  Sara had a conference and Anthony went to visit a client.  It was a hectic trip and we really didn't get to see each other much even though we were staying in the same hotel room but it was still fun to travel together.

Sara got up by 5am Tuesday and Wednesday to make sure all the lyonscg conference stuff was ready to go for the day and then had dinners/events late into the night.  Meanwhile, Anthony worked on Eastern time which meant he was up by 5am but it also meant he had some free time in the afternoon to play a little poker (won $23!) and take some photos of the Vegas Strip.

On Tuesday Anthony drove the 45 minutes to check out Lake Mead and Hoover Dam.  It was impressive.

Taking the Next Step in my Photography

After all the travel Sara and I have done over the past several years, not to mention living in beautiful Chicago, I've accumulated an inventory of decent photos, and I think it's time to see if people are willing to buy my stuff.  So, I've made my photos available for purchase on Fine Art America.

I have my own Artist Website as well as a profile page on Fine Art America.  Either site can be used to purchase a print along with any additional items you may want (frame, matting, paper, etc).  Fine Art America has an impressive selection of all sorts of artwork, so if you prefer other mediums (painting, sculptures, etc) you'll still enjoy this site.

Please share with anyone you feel may be interested.

Zipline Videos

One of our guides took two videos for us (using Amber's camera).  If we would have tried this the camera would have been shaking all over the place and you might have heard some screaming (and possibly cursing). It felt much faster in real life.

The first video shows a great view of Jaco.  This was also the highest zipline we went on...several hundred feet from the ground.

The second video shows Anthony zipping by on the same zipline that was shown in the first video.
