Playing With A Camera

Not much to report. I got this camera [3.2 MP] for my birthday last month from my brother and sister-in-law. I'm not much of a photographer, but I like the way these turned out. Top to bottom, they depict:

- A view of the studio at WJYE-FM, Buffalo, NY, where I work. No more watching the spinning record (or CD). Nowadays everything that goes on the air [except me] is digitally recorded [or re-recorded], then placed into the computer that operates the system. I usually don't wax nostalgic for old technology, but there are nights when I really feel the thing has gotten too easy, and that I should be doing more of the work [Fortunately, the feeling passed in time for payday that week]

-Looking out the studio window, at the "Hotel lafayette" I'm 12 stories up, so a ground level perspective was impossible.

A parking garage near the radio station. I just liked the squares that decorate the second or third levels, formed by half-walls, decking, and the actual decorations themselves. So art can come from anything -
