February 9, 2008 – Hollywood Blvd Heroes and Tourists


This is one of those shots that looks great on the camera’s LCD, then is kinda disappointing when you see it big. I like the subject matter and the framing, but at a 1/2 sec exposure without a tripod the blur is just too distracting.

February 3, 2008 – Life Grows On


From "Imagine Earth Without People" in New Scientist:

“All things considered, it will only take a few tens of thousands of years at most before almost every trace of our present dominance has vanished completely. Alien visitors coming to Earth 100,000 years hence will find no obvious signs that an advanced civilisation ever lived here.”

As for the asphalt in our yard, less than 20 years.
