dale said...: Gotta say, I get a kick out of interesting names for photos. Often it helps get a better understanding of the artists perspective and inspiration for the shot. On this one. I was immediately draw to the title which loaded much faster than the photo. When I saw the photo, I smiled. I reckon that's the mark of an excellent photographer, one who can invoke a reaction from another. I love this shot and part of that affinity is in the interesting title ;-); 4:36 AM

I don't see much (any) variance in the framing. You must have spent a good bit of time setting up the shot. Great Job!; 5:12 AM

: Name: Thomas Hawk; Location: San Francisco, California

Thomas Hawk is a photographer and blogger in the SF Bay Area writing under the pen name Thomas Hawk. Professionally Thomas Hawk is an investment advisor in a non-technology related field and uses his pen name to separate his investment career and identity from his thoughts and opinions on new media and technology, both fields which neither he nor his firm advise or offer services for professionally. Additionally, Thomas Hawk is Evangelist and CEO for the photo sharing Site Zooomr. My statement as an artist is to outdo New York’s Little Angel Angelo Rizzuto, who between 1952 and 1966 documented New York City with over 60,000 photos. We all have but a short time on this earth. As slow as time can be it is also fast, swift, furious and mighty and then it’s over. Angelo Rizzuto is dead, Jack Kerouac is dead. John Lennon is dead. Andy Warhol is dead. Garry Winogrand is dead. Lee Friedlander isn't dead yet, but he probably will be at some point. When I'm not taking or processing pictures I'm mostly thinking about pictures. I'm trying to publish a library of 1,000,000 finished, processed photographs before I die. You can reach me at tom(at)thomashawk.com.
