It was a reversal of traditional roles: Painters contracted by the owners of an unoccupied building in Queens, New York, worked under the cover of night Tuesday morning to white wash years of graffiti that had turned 5Pointz into a street art mecca.

Lexus LF-LC Blue Concept
The Lexus LF-LC Blue Concept, which is spun off the Lexus LF-LC Concept shown earlier this year at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show, made its formal debut at the 2012 Sydney Auto Show. It gets a lighter body mass thanks to more carbon-fiber parts. Lexus rates the LF-LC's hybrid drivetrain, dubbed Advanced Lexus Hybrid Drive, at 500 horsepower.
As seen at the recently concluded SF Auto Show at the Moscone Center, San Francisco, CA.
Images were captured through a vintage Pentax 50mm f/1.2 lens on a Canon EOS 30D.

Some newer cameras make it even easier to create a tilt-shift effect in your image. This one was done using the Olympus E-P2's Art Filter Diorama. Just select the focal point and, voilà, your tilt-shift image is done!

Bay Bridge

The San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge (known locally as the Bay Bridge) is a pair of bridges spanning San Francisco Bay of California, in the United States. As part of Interstate 80 and the direct road route between San Francisco and Oakland, it carries approximately 270,000 vehicles per day on its two decks.[4] It has one of the longest spans in the world. ~ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Francisco_%E2%80%93_Oakland_Bay...
Tilt-shift images used to be a novelty. With the proliferation of software and apps that can manipulate the image, it has become ubiquitous and cliche. Happy Saturday!

Black and Bitter

After a 5-hour flight from SFO, a cup of black coffee is all I needed to perk me up for the drive home. Glad to be back in Philly but I'm anxiously anticipating my upcoming relocation to the Bay Area.

Philly Silhouetted
Via Flickr:
I had the white balance set to incandescent in this shot and it turned out too blue. So I increased the hue and contrast beyond what I normally do and came up with this silhouetted Philly skyline.

Not wanting to mix in with the blur of activity unfolding before her, she decided the focused side was the place to be.
