neon cups of coffee


Nighttime on the neon hunt. A pizza shop in Clarendon, I believe.

beau's lawn


No caption needed. If you don't know who lives here, I'll give you a hint. He's kind of a big deal.

lunch in lafayette square


For such a gorgeous day, there weren't a whole lot of people out and about in Lafayette Square. The A. Litteri subs we got were best enjoyed with a warming filter from a worm's eye view. The White House gawkers were an entertaining bonus.

popeye's harem


A. Litteri is an Italian market in D.C. that has been open since 1926. They keep eighty or so types of olive oil in stock. Popeye wouldn't need to fight with Bluto anymore.

early morning sunlight


Goofing off with my camera, quietly in the morning. It rekindled my desire to take some photos of interesting bathrooms, starting with the retro-cool men's room at the Corcoran Gallery. Is that strange?

halls of justice


Armed only with my 35mm, I had to be creative to photograph the front of the Supreme Court in the early evening. I couldn't fit the facade in any other way.

purity in fall


It's not often that I find flowers worth photographing in the fall. These didn't seem all that worthy, but sometimes the shutter sees things differently.

saturated paintjob


I can't even believe some of the so-called facts about this automaker from Wikipedia. They're mighty ridiculous.

parade of trabants


East German automaker Trabant made cars with two-stroke engines and 10-year waiting lists. Zero-to-sixty in 21 seconds: scorching!
