Constitutional Court II

Back in May of last year, I was in Johannesburg to conduct a video-archiving workshop at ANC. One of the ANC elders took time out of his busy schedule to show me the Constitutional Court. It’s an amazing physical space, built on top of an apartheid-era prison. Looking into past pictures, I had a great day of shooting photos there as well. Thanks so much Toine!

Too long

I’m not dead yet! Just a few long, very busy weeks. More photos coming soon – promise. For now, one from the past.

What a perfect day this was… wow, more than a year ago now. Cold, clear, windy, and perfect light for shooting photos. The company I kept that day was even more spectacular.

Making the move to Aperture and revisiting some old photos to play with them and my new toy software application. Shot this fella on the Savannah River.

One from the past – it’s too dang cold here with too much snow falling. Makes for a pretty Christmas, but I ain’t going out in it to shoot pictures right now. Seriously, absolute zero would be a warm-up.

ugh

Between end of semester and this sinus-thing I can’t seem to shake (antibiotics are good for you) I’ve not been a very faithful poster. It’s hard to get out in the cold when I’m under the weather. One from the past, taken last Fall:

It’s not the southern-most tip of the continent, but the Cape of Good Hope is known for wild weather. From the lighthouse, you can see where the Indian meets the Atlantic. One is colder than the other, and there’s sometimes a line on the surface where they mingle.

out for a walk

Along the riverfront in Brisbane while there for a conference. It’s so overcast and snowy here today that I wanted something a bit bright.

Fall

Red and blue show up in many of my pictures. I love the leaves here.
