Blogger has been a real pain recently. I keep getting java errors when I attempt to post. It's driving me mad.

<< | home | >>Construction - I work in the ugly, brutal
building in the bottom of the frame. I have little good to say about the building, except for the positive renovation on the
2nd floor. The other building - Heaslip House, home of
The G. Raymond Chang School of Continuing Education - is a very nice new building. This photo's

<< | home | >>After the Rain - I have been trying to figure out the best way to get a sepia tone to an image. I am not sure if I like the results using Adobe Lightroom. I have also used Digital Photo Professional and ArcSoft's Photo Studio for this one. This is the back of a building south of Kensington, in China town. Too bad the sky was so boring that day.
