Happy New Year

Paul Revere Park

Boston, 2002. Sometimes I miss shooting on film. On a shot like this, you just couldn’t know what you had until hours (or days later).

Bodega

Santa Monica, 2009. Things are looking up.

Red (Read)

Through the Ivy

cbell — Sat, 13 Dec 2008 14:25:01 +0000

Street View

cbell — Thu, 27 Nov 2008 02:56:40 +0000

New York, 2006. 8th Avenue. I only noticed the people hours later.

Skylight

Los Angeles, 2006. Digging a little deeper into the archives.

Overhang

cbell — Sun, 23 Nov 2008 16:20:05 +0000

Santa Monica, 2008. The moon was nearly full, but I was too impatient to shoot it ‘right’.

Mist (Missed)

cbell — Sat, 22 Nov 2008 03:03:06 +0000

Santa Monica, 2008. Somehow the night is different in November.

New York, 2008. I was already thinking about the flight home.

Empire State

cbell — Fri, 24 Oct 2008 19:41:38 +0000

New York, 2008. Not enough time this trip to shoot at night except for this one quick image I caught before jumping into a cab.

We’re on Mars too

cbell — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 01:22:01 +0000

Mars, 2008. This more-or-less true color image shows the special DVD containing about 250,000 names (including cbell’s) and other information velcroed onto the Mars Phoenix Lander. Image: NASA (obviously).

The Phoenix Lander like the Spirit and Opportunity Rover missions before have reignited my long-standing interest in planetary exploration that dates back to afternoons in the late 70s and early 80s sitting in absolute awe watching the “live” images coming back from the Voyager 1 & 2 missions.

Weatherford

cbell — Fri, 16 May 2008 08:04:34 +0000

Weatherford, OK, 2008. This growing wind power installation creates an impressive view along the horizon. I took this shot while driving east on I-40 across Oklahoma last March.

Last clear night

cbell — Fri, 25 Jan 2008 22:49:40 +0000

Marina del Rey, CA, 2008. By the end of the evening, it was raining (and it hasn’t really stopped since).

Back on the road

cbell — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 18:54:49 +0000

Apple Valley, CA, 2008. I was ready for a long drive in the rain to kick-off the annual pilgrimage to LasVegas for CES, but as soon as I crossed the mountain pass, the clouds parted a bit and the rain stopped. The vista views were dramatic with the sun poking through the dense clouds.

First aid

cbell — Mon, 17 Dec 2007 14:47:27 +0000

Santa Monica, 2007. Time to go back outside.

Haze

Ferry Building and Justin Herman Plaza at the end of Market Street.

Mmmm

cbell — Mon, 22 Oct 2007 15:00:40 +0000

I’ve set a personal limit of two cups of coffee a day—it’s enough to have a real taste of something I truly enjoy, but not so much that it makes me feel like I’m turning my stomach into shoe leather. It’s tough to stick to that, though, since someone delivered a full pot of the tasty brew right to my room at 6:30.

Film crew

cbell — Sun, 21 Oct 2007 20:00:57 +0000

After warning one of the riders they were filming to hold on, “with both hands,” the producer heard my chuckle and turned back to me and said “those things are death traps, you know.” After walking around for a few hours, I took one back over the hill for the first time.

Powell & California

cbell — Sun, 21 Oct 2007 19:30:19 +0000

A perfect day in San Francisco today.

Yellowstone

cbell — Sat, 20 Oct 2007 19:00:50 +0000

I was thinking today about going back to Yellowstone.
