Entry Filed under: Photoblogging,PittsburghJust a last couple of shots before I get to the New Jersey photos I took before and after my sister’s wedding… last September. (I did process the wedding photos themselves right away – I don’t completely suck…)

Entry Filed under: Photoblogging,PittsburghIn case you’ve forgotten, I am objectively pro-black-and-white…

Entry Filed under: Photoblogging,PittsburghThe sad thing is that the arena is actually finished now. These photos are from almost a full year ago, that’s how long my photo-processing hiatus has been.

Entry Filed under: Photoblogging,PittsburghOkay, I think this is the last of the convention center photos – next up, the closing keynote.
Pretty damn cool, as elevators go.
A nice empty corridor.
Close-up of the tubes and lights in the big hall.
The overpriced concession stand.
Umm… Ceiling thingy? Possibly the underside of the escalator.
Hey, look who beamed in! Uh, twice, apparently.

Entry Filed under: Netroots Nation,Photoblogging,PittsburghYes, I still have more photos of the building…
For those of you new to this blog, I really like shadows.
Mystery Stairway!
I am fascinated by the upper reaches of the main halls.
Some say that NN warps your view of the outside world.
Looking right…
Looking left.

Entry Filed under: Netroots Nation,Photoblogging,PittsburghMore pictures of the convention center itself:
Skylight in the main hall.
I suppose this could technically be considered a people photo…
I like the exposed structural elements.
A closer look at said elements.
Shadows from the skylight.

Entry Filed under: Netroots Nation,Photoblogging,PittsburghHey look, it’s my new *cough* Democratic senator, Arlen Specter! He actually made a very good case for himself, provided you don’t know anything about his actual legislative record.
Arlen looks out at the audience and wonders what he’s gotten himself into.
Reviewing his index cards.
Behold, he smiles!
If I blow this up all the way, I can almost read his index card, but it’s just a little too blurry. Phooey.
Arlen gestures very sincerely.

Entry Filed under: Netroots Nation,People,Photoblogging,Pittsburgh,Pittsburgh/PA,SpecterThe five of you who read my blog regularly know that all these people pictures I’ve been posting from Netroots Nation are totally out of character for me. I’m much more comfortable walking around taking pictures of the building itself. Like so:
Yes, I was taking pictures of the ceiling during the opening keynote ceremony.
The railing on the stage right before Bill Clinton appeared. Although I assume it looked pretty much the same after he appeared, too.
Chairs waiting for Mike Lux, Tanya Tarr, and Howard Dean.
This was on the other side from the main hall where the keynotes were. I guess it’s basically for storage and spare parts.
It looks a little bit like the inside of an alien spacecraft…

Entry Filed under: Photoblogging,PittsburghWell, there is the one wooden steps picture because I had nowhere else to put it…

Entry Filed under: Photoblogging,PittsburghI still have some crane photoblogging left to do, but after that it’s going to be all California for a few weeks.

Entry Filed under: Photoblogging,PittsburghMore random photos about town.
One of those overhead latticework sign-holding thingies reflected in a tanker truck. Would have liked to have done more with it, but I only had time to grab a shot or two before the light changed.
More arena construction. Not sure what those strips hanging down are for.
A crane underarm, to the extent that cranes can be said to have underarms.

Entry Filed under: Photoblogging,PittsburghWell, so much for Arts Festival photoblogging. Back to construction and Random Stuff, of which this is the latter.

Entry Filed under: Photoblogging,PittsburghA few more shots from the Zany Umbrella Circus. I told you they had doubled in size.
July 30th, 2009 at 11:28am Posted by Eli
Entry Filed under: People,Photoblogging,PittsburghI particularly like the last shot.
July 29th, 2009 at 06:26pm Posted by Eli
Entry Filed under: People,Photoblogging,PittsburghThe Zany Umbrella Circus was in town for the Three Rivers Arts Festival, and has doubled in size since I saw them last. (They now have two people!)
July 27th, 2009 at 11:15am Posted by Eli
Entry Filed under: People,Photoblogging,PittsburghI did take some pictures of other stuff while I was downtown for the arts festival…

Entry Filed under: People,Photoblogging,PittsburghWhat can I say, they’re photogenic. I just wish my autofocus hadn’t decided that the backdrop behind the drummer was more interesting than the drummer himself…

Entry Filed under: People,Photoblogging,PittsburghThe Pittsburgh Boilermakers were at the Three Rivers Arts Festival. I’ve liked them ever since they played at a friend’s swing dance birthday.
