The Man in the Alley
January 3, 2015

In the 1921 days the dailypic has been around I have never posted a photo somewhere else first, then posted it as the dailypic later. It is rare a dailypic was not shot on the same day either. One time I did repost The Old Mill photo months later because it won a contest and was going to be on tv. So, today is an expectation to my own rules, the rules that no one but me knows. I took this photo at 9:17pm 12/31/14 in the street of Cambridge, while waiting for the 10pm show for Ellis Paul. I loved it the second I took it. I looked down at the camera looked back up and the subject was gone.  I actually have another shot taken less than 1 minute later.

Not nearly the same photo. I have been sitting on the photo for 2 days, trying to figure out where it lives. Ellis Paul was the dailypic, then a toy, but I wanted this to be seen.  It is one of my favorite shots I may have ever taken. So, I tossed it on my facebook page, the second I did, I wish I had not.  People started to like it as much as I did, it needs to be a dailypic… so here it is. After so many people have already viewed it, here it is posted again.  I know there are many of you not on my facebook page, so it will get fresh eyes. And again, really, they are my rules, no one cares but me. It did get me thinking though, this is one of my favorites of at least 2014, if not more… so why not go through and pick some more favorites of last year. So I did, it took me 10 minutes. I started in January and tagged photos I loved, it did not matter if they were dailypics or not, I ended up with 55 photos that I guess are the ‘best of’ according to me. If I did it again, they might be different, I did not over think it. Just viewed and clicked. This is what I ended up with. Enjoy.

A few weeks ago I stopped and took a photo of K Mart before they closed. I forgot I took it. Today, I was in the lot again and noticed the signs are gone. A depressing empty lot. We used to shop there all the time as a family when I was kid, later I covered the store while I was working for Kodak. The last few years I really never had the patients to shop there, one register opened, lines of 20 people or more waiting to check out. It was time for it to go, just like, Two Guys, Bradlees, The Fair, Mars, Sears Roebuck, Caldor, Ames and all the other department stores that have closed in the area. It will be interesting to see what becomes of the lot.  Below are the shots from a couple weeks ago.

The hardest part of the carving this year was blowing out the candles with bronchitis. This one was lit from above by a sparkler with a 30 sec exposure. Check out some of the family’s designs below.

The Black Belt
October 18, 2014

The passion this kid has for Taekwondo is remarkable. He has played soccer, baseball, basketball, football, none of them came close to mattering. And in a world where the jocks rule the schools and community is driven by sports, not fitting into one of those 4, well, can be noticeable. We had taken Dan to a few free classes at different Martial Art studios, never going past the trial period.  It was not until our friends the Johnsons suggested trying Mu Han in Franklin, that I ever thought all we were doing was collecting free white scrubs. The first week there I knew we would be sticking around.  He was ready and this was the right place. He has been prepared for each belt test he was eligible for. Always practicing and earning the requirements so he could advance one step closer to Black. A broken leg set him back 6 months and he never let it stop him. The day the cast came off he asked when his next class was. He loves to help the younger kids when he assists as an instructor in training. This week he earned the Black Belt topping it off with a ceremony where he and other deserving students graduated with family and friends standing by. I could not be more proud, I gave him a hug and told him so, and as soon as I said “You did it!” he answered with “I need to start on my next degree”.

Thank you to all his instructors over the last few years, Master Kang, Master Oh, Master Lee, Instructor Jake, Instructor Christian, Instructor Thomas, Instructor Joe, Instructor Joshua, Instructor John and all the others over the years.

The Discovery

The best Smithsonian (in my opinion) is not in Washington DC, it is in Chantilly, VA at the Udvar-Hazy Center next to Dulles Airport. Anna and I went this morning, driving out in the pouring rain. Strolling through the 2 hangers full of aircraft is a great way to spend a raining morning.  The dailypic is the underside of the Space Shuttle Discovery, it was fun watching people walk up to it and just stand in awe.  If you have been there, maybe it was the same for you, to me it just looks fake. No matter how close you get to it, it is not something you could imagine has been to space and back 39 times. I took my time taking photos, close-ups, fish-eyes; I had it covered.  We also got to see the  Red Bull Stratos Capsule, Felix Baumgartner stepped out of to fall to earth a couple of years back. Check out the photos from the visit, if you get the chance I highly recommend making the trip.

A very full day, we had to navigate a marathon, it was one of of those “You cant get there from here” things,  but I worked down here long enough that I made it work. Then the Air & Space, back to Newseum, Natural History (where the people are a better exhibits than the, well, exhibits), A Sculpture Garden, Washington Monument and Lincoln Memorial. I will need to do some special posts later this week, maybe one just on selfies… it is INSANE how smart phones have made tourist traps worse than ever. We saw 2 people fall into the Reflecting Pool within 5 minutes of each other, in the same spot.  I had to rescue one of them. It was a very entertaining day.  One left. Not sure what the plan is tomorrow, there has been a request to visit the Lincoln Memorial again, at sunrise, to avoid people and get better light. We will see how that idea is met in the morning.

Today was the Smithsonian’s American History Museum, The Newseum and The Jefferson Memorial, one of the few places I have never been. Right before we left the lot, I took some shots as the sun set with the clouds as a backdrop.
