If you use any of these photos for commercial purposes I assume you'll discuss that with me

These were shot with a Nikon D70 - using lens (1) AF-S Nikkor 18-70 mm 1:35-4.5G ED, or (2) AF Nikkor 70-300mm telephoto, or after 5 June 2006, (3) AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor, 55-200 mm f/4-5.6G ED. They were modified for web posting using Adobe Photoshop 7.0

Hollywood Calling
Topic: Light and Shadow
Hollywood Calling
A complex shot - in the window of a combination souvenir and pawn shop in the 6600 block of Hollywood Boulevard, junk for sale, Wednesday, August 23rd. The street is reflected in the upper right quadrant - jacaranda and the tourist looking at this stuff for sale - the Tweety Bird and Snow White's Castle phones, and the poster of the lighthouse at sunset. It's a bit of looking in from the real world into something else entirely.

Phones for sale - and there's something ineffably sad here -
