That's How I See It 2011 -

Self portrait - <br /> (My first, and probably only one...)<br /> <br /> Daily Photos - February 8, 2012<br /> <br /> Well, this was extremely difficult for me to post, but I did it anyways... Please be kind :) LOL<br /> As much as I love photographing other people, places, and things, I am pretty reserved (and overly opinionated) about my own appearance. So many of the people we work with are just naturally photogenic and seem so comfortable in front of the camera, that its a bit unnerving and awkward to be on the other end of the lens! Does anybody else have that same feeling? Do you see the same self image when looking at a picture that someone took of you as when you look into the mirror in the morning?

  • These Boots<br /> <br /> Daily Photos - February 17, 2012<br /> <br /> I couldn't help but wonder if she was showing off her fancy boots, flipping me the bird or if she was just off in her own world...
  • Look - Up In The Sky!! It's a bird, it's a plane! It's... <br /> <br /> ...my ONE-HUNDRED THOUSANDTH photo view!<br /> <br /> It's a huge milestone and a mini-celebration for me!!! I'm coming up to the 1 year anniversary (Feb 25th) of the date I opened my account and posted my very first picture on SmugMug. 100,000 photo views is probably small-beans compared to the activity a lot of other SmugMuggers see, but I'm pretty happy with my little site so far! Yeah!! <br /> <br /> Daily Photos - February 21, 2012

  • Hockey Anyone?<br /> <br /> Daily Photos - February 10, 2012<br /> <br /> Pick a stick...any stick... This is part of the Stick Prep room in the University of Notre Dame's new Compton Family Ice Arena. The main rink in the facility is named the "Lefty Smith Rink", in honor of my wife's grandpa who was the first hockey coach in the program's history. Go Irish!!

  • Preoccupied<br /> <br /> Daily Photos - February 1, 2012<br /> <br /> Out on a lunchtime photo-walk enjoying the near 60 degree weather. Certainly a welcome reprieve from the typical January weather here in Chicago! <br /> <br /> Don't know if word has spread yet, but I was totally bummed out yesterday when I learned that Picnik will soon be no more!!! :(
  • "Orange, Orange...Banana?"<br /> <br /> Daily Photos - January 31, 2012<br /> <br /> Waiting... Eating a banana... And unknowingly doing so in fabulous color matching style...<br /> <br /> I spotted this person while I was out for a quick photo walk on my lunch break yesterday. The touches of orange in her jacket and hat against the rusty orange wall jumped out at me. I was only able to get off this one shot before she started walking away.

  • "All About L's"<br /> <br /> There are three things in this shot that begin with the letter "L" , the first of which being Legs... Care to venture a guess about the other two?<br /> <br /> Daily Photos - January 18, 2012
  • "Little Red Riding Hood"<br /> <br /> Daily Photos - January 13, 2012<br /> <br /> One of the few people out braving Chicago's first real snow of the season...
  • "Wabash"<br /> <br /> Daily Photos - January 19, 2012<br /> <br /> Thank you all so much for commenting on my posting from yesterday, All About L's. It was really an eye-opener for me to learn what others saw in the image! I have to admit that, originally, I only saw three things in the shot that start with the letter "L" : Legs, Lines, and Light, but everyone that commented found quite a few more!

  • Daily Photos - January 3, 2012<br /> <br /> Hi everyone and Happy New Year! <br /> Between the holidays and some family health issues that have been preoccupying my time, I’ve totally neglected my website and leaving comments on the daily postings for over two weeks now... Being back online feels great and is definitely helping to get my creative juices flowing again. Now that everyone and everything seems to be on the mend, I’ve got a lot of catching up to do!

    Fantastic sp! I think you are very handsome! You look like you were born to be in front of the camera!

    Nice work! I don't like having the camera pointed at myself either, but I'm always happily surprised by how nice I look in the photos that Nini takes of me.

    No, you're not alone! I hate to see myself in a photo: it is definitely a different person than the guy in the mirror!
