Description Baltimore Soundstage
Baltimore, Maryland
December 5, 2014

Some of you may remember that this was the band that I saw in New Orleans last month.  When they told me that the were coming to Baltimore, I made a point to go see them again.  It was definitely worth seeing them again!

All in a fantastic atmosphere

I re-watch that series in spurts. . .  David Simon has developed a knack for knowing how not to let a series go on too long.
I'm glad you like the photo - even the green spotlights.

not "even" ... especially!
they give it a contrast which is exactly right. not too much, not too little.

i never know who has made a series and i agree that tremé ended just at the right moment. i like the beginning/intro in particular - i have even used it in a lesson once.
so much to take in there - tragedy and the will to survive, to struggle on, mixed with those strangely beautiful images of moldy wallpapers. great!

Yes, I will be out of the office for a week after Christmas, so I know that during some of that time, when I'm not reading, exercising, or preparing for my busy-season when I return to work in January, I will watch more of the 1st season of Treme'.

yeah, that's a nice prospect! is it cold outside in baltimore?
because here it should be but isn't really, when the nicest thing on the days "between the years" (that's what we call the days between christmas and the new year) is wrapping oneself in a nice blanket on the sofa and start reading the books you got as presents ...
i wish you a merry christmas and some nice time off!

But in addition to being a lazy bum for a few days , I just joined a photographers group in Washington.  The Group is tilted toward film photography, but some of the members shoot mostly digital.  I sought to be around film photographers who are better than I am.  As the newest member of the Group, I feel pressure to produce some good, new images.

The weather here is cold and rainy - my least favorite weather condition.  Oh well. I don't care, because I really don't have to go out in it unless I really want.

Merry Christmas to you too!

I just saw a Pro Jazz trumpet player (Freddie Jones) with a group of high school jazz band kids, part of a little workshop. Kids learned a lot, and had a blast.  It was awesome! Love great music... Great Photo!!
