The single malt whisky is upstaged by the Canon EF 24-105mm L shot glass that my daughter gave me for Christmas.

Cheers to a New Year filled with bokeh and high spirits! Happy New Year to one and all!

Please drink moderately. And if you do, please have a designated driver for the evening.

Aroma: The scent of citrus and ripening peaches is softened by the aroma of vanilla.
Taste: First, vanilla is detected on the tongue before it ripples along the palate bringing a burst of flowery fruitiness.
Finish: About a minute after tasting, you are left with a clean and salving aftertaste with hints of orange and peach.~ www.glenmorangie.com/our-whiskies/the-original

Rambling thoughts of a shutter bug while strolling through the Christmas Village at JFK Plaza in Philadelphia, PA.

Rushing home on a Friday afternoon.

Via Flickr:
Come ride with me on my commute home from Allentown, PA. Since it was a Friday afternoon I was in a rush to beat the crowd! Captured using "Lapse It", an app for Android devices. This is the lite version which only captures low resolution images. I'm definitely buying the Pro version. (586 frames rendered at 20 frames per second.)

When Massachusetts Institute of Technology commissioned Steven Holl in 1999 to design a new a dormitory for the school they had one goal in sight: that the spaces around and within the building would stir up interaction among students. While MIT focused on the building’s use and function, Holl aimed to create a memorable building. ~ www.archdaily.com/65172/simmons-hall-at-mit-steven-holl/

NYC Cab Facts

NYC Cab Facts by jomak14
NYC Cab Facts, a photo by jomak14 on Flickr.
Via Flickr:
Hailing a cab is as simple as stepping off the curb and holding out your arm -- it only gets complicated when you need to figure out why many New York taxis seem to drive by without stopping for you. The trick is in the lights atop the cab.
• When just the center is lit, highlighting the medallion number, the cab is available.
• When the medallion number, as well as the side lamps are lit, the cab is off-duty.
• When no lights are lit, the cab already has a fare they are bringing to a destination.
