Open Mic

I got to cover an open mic night at a pretty popular local music venue. Probably the most fun I've had at an assignment in a while. Of course the lighting was dark and made it difficult to shoot, but I like a challenge. Also since I really hate use flash, especially in a dark room, it was fun to come out with nice stuff.

4-Hour Traffic Assignment

So, I had the pleasure of a 4-hour, 4-mile trip yesterday. I was on my way to an assignment when I got stuck in traffic after only about 2-miles. I was there for almost 4-hours. The exits on the on-ramps to the interstate were closed due to ice and several accidents. So, that meant, no moving. When I finally got off, I just turned around and went home, the other 2-miles. Being bored, I got my camera out and took picture of some of my fellow commuters and other things I saw that I thought were interesting since I missed my two assignments.
