Time well wasted

Sunrise Sunset
Since taking up the photography hobby I tend to watch the sky a lot more - watching for a good cloud day that will make for a good sunset. Sunrises are also quite amazing - I just don't make it up that early very often. But over the past couple weeks I've gotten to see some of both.

From Thanksgiving

This was actually a few minutes before sunset, but I liked the sun in the dilapidated barn window.

Jess and I stayed up all night to watch a sunrise - it was a great day. I was a little worried it would be too cloudy, but it was perfect.

From Sunset 12.15

Winter is great for sunsets, unfortunately they generally happen right around 5pm - right as I'm getting off work. I happened to notice this one starting at about 4:30, so I left work early ran like a crazy man over to my favorite photo spot to get a few pictures.

From KY Christmas 08

My mom actually took this one. It was Christmas eve, I had taken some pictures of the clouds earlier that day and missed the sunset. I stitched together a few of her pictures to get a panoramic shot.

The Places We've Been
So my roommate Taylor was joking around about the picture from my last post being a terrible photoshop job - I had "forgotten to put in a background." So to appease Taylor (and to stave off boredom while in the middle-of-nowhere Kentucky for Thanksgiving) I had a little fun with photoshop and the picture of Jess, Taylor, Terra and I from the Womack's wedding.

So here's what our group has been up to lately:

Taylor's dad (who just happens to be Rick Moranis) built a miniaturizing machine and forgot to mention that it now works. Thanks Rick.

We visited Mexico's famous Chechen Itza - it was smaller than we expected.

When those crazy Chinese guys popped out of the boxes during the opening ceremony I almost had a heart attack.

I mean, it's just a bunch of rocks in a field.

Sometimes you only have to venture across the street to see amazing things...
... amazing is used a little too loosely these days

The Chinese live in the largest gated community in the world.

How we found ourselves trying to escape a black hole we'll never know. Those big bastards are scary as hell.

More rocks in a field - didn't people have better things to do back then?

Calling it "Grand" really seems like an understatement
