Sunday Outings

I had an eventful weekend this week. The weather was a bit chilly but I ventured out anyway. I met up with some fellow photographer hobbyist on Sunday and roamed Maxwell street market. It was a small fun little group, thanks for letting me join guys.

Later in the day I was able to make it to the St. Patrick's Day Parade on the South Side of Chicago. I had a good time and was intoxicating-ly joyful :) I will post some photos of the parade on Wednesday here and a few of the Street market in the Chicago Photos section. - Stay tuned!

Lincoln Park Church

I don't know the name of this church but I had to pull over and take a picture of it. I like the architecture of many church building but with the reflection of the sunset against it, this one just called to me.

Night Settings

I finally discovered the ENV setting of my camera and now know how to get rid of that flare from direct lights at night. Well at least I can dim them down a bit. Call my corny but this is exciting to me :)

Drive-by Photography

I took a nice drive through the Chicago loop today. The day was nice, tomorrow is expected to be warmer. I've added more pictures to my Chicago Photoblog. I'm officially addicted to these drive-by photography shootings :).

Train Ride

This is one of the few pictures you'll find of myself. As many other photography hobbyist, I love taking pictures but don't like being in them. This is my reflection from the train window.

Scent Addict

Another addiction I have besides music and photography is perfume. I stopped by the perfume stand at the mall to get a wiff of the new scents out in the market right now. MMMmmm smelled so good!
