Milan, ItalyShooting up into the dome of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II during a recent trip to Milan over the Thanksgiving holiday, I was reminded of a glittering kaleidoscope. Built between 1865 and 1871, it is a classic double vaulted arcade classic of the time. The Galleria serves as an impressive connector between the Piazza del Duomo and Piazza della Scala. This is NOT shopping at the

Yes, faithful fan(s), this is the end of Exposure Factor as you know it. This website was created exactly one year ago (365 postings) as a means of sharing the fun I have behind the lens but because of my increasingly crazy work/travel schedule, it has made a daily posting become more of a chore at times. And when that happens, it's time to reconsider. So from here on out, I'll be posting on

Scharlooweg / Willemstad, CuraçaoA friendly ... There is no name for a person coming from Curaçao. How stupid is that? Someone from America is an American, someone from Venezuela is a Venezuelan, someone from Curaçao is, well, someone from Curaçao.

Wind Turbine Farm / Quebrada Azul ,Costa RicaCosta Rica is a country rich with renewable energy. In fact, it gets about 99% of all its electrical energy from clean sources and it’s aiming to be the first country to become carbon neutral. If you've ever stood behind a cow for any period of time you know what kind of wind power they are capable of.

Gas Street Basin / Birmingham, EnglandEven the canal system in city centre Birmingham has a roundabout. I used to refer to them as "suicide circles" when I lived outside of Boston because you required a death wish to enter one - fearing for one's life. Not so here; the Brits are much more civilized about the whole roundabout process - painfully so. Go - will you!

Puente de la Mujer / Buenos Aires, ArgentinaThe Puente de la Mujer ("Woman's Bridge") is a footbridge in the Puerto Madero district of Buenos Aires that spans the Rio de la Plata. It is unique in that is an asymmetrical arrangement with a single mast. Cables suspended a portion of the bridge which rotates 90 degrees in order to allow water traffic to pass.

Selfridges @ the Bull Ring / Birmingham, EnglandStill one of the quirkiest examples of mainstream pop architecture, Selfridges gives off a particularly alien feel at night when the aluminum disks which cover the outside of the structure begin to give off a blue glow - reminding me of some far off one-eyed space aliens.

Circus World Museum / Baraboo, WisconsinThis mirrored reflection from the side of a circus train car sadly is not a reflection of my wild & crazy weekend here in Brum - I worked all day saturday - it rained all day sunday. Though I did go see Brüno. You know, Americans (or is it just southern rednecks) seem even more stupider when you are watching them in a foreign country. Zahh Brüno izzahh

Woburn Road Garden / Ampthill, EnglandIn continuing the floral theme I've got going here at the moment, another shot from the english gardens I came across while walking through the village of Ampthill last weekend. Purple is a powerful color in nature - even in this soft and muted shade of violet.

Woburn Road Garden / Ampthill, EnglandLast weekend while working in Bedfordshire, I took a break and had a nice walk through the quaint village of Ampthill which I am told is quintessential England. I came upon a string of thatched roof cottages - each with lovely english gardens in the front. These bees were equally enjoying the sunshine.

Sandland / Charlottetown, Prince Edward IslandThis is where I should be. Basking in the sun, lounging about making sandcastles.Sandland in PEI was worth the visit (hope they bring it back this year). It was an outdoor sculpture museum - seasonal of course. It wasn't a big place, but they did have some impressive pieces as well as a little sandpit for the kiddies. It'd be a shame if they

Canal Street [堅尼街] / New York, New YorkUnlike most other urban Chinatowns, Manhattan's Chinatown is both a residential area as well as commercial area. Most population estimates are in the range of 90,000 to 100,000 residents making it the second most populous Chinatown after San Francisco. Canal Street, west of Broadway (especially on the North side), is filled with Chinese street vendors

Ulica Kanonicza / Krakow, PolandOne of Krakow's most picturesque streets, Ulica Kanonicza, up until the 14th century was lined with mansions of noblemen. Then the palatial residences of Krakow's canons and prelates moved in with a number of buildings still belonging to the Church. From 1951 to 1963, Father Karol Wojtyla (Pope Paul II) dwelled at 19-21 Kanonicza.

La Fortuna de San Carlos, Costa RicaAs anyone who has visited the tropical climates knows, the colorful floral vegetation is always an eye catcher. Living in Manhattan, even on the edge of Central Park, one doesn't see much in the way of colorful natural vegetation - other than green. Perhaps that's why all of the corner bodegas throughout the city seem to have flower stalls; allowing us to bring

Birmingham Canal Main Line / Birmingham, EnglandI've posted several times about the extensive canal system in Birmingham - said to have more miles of canal than Venice. Here I was standing on a footbridge at the convergence of three major canals - the Worcester & Birmingham Canal, the Birmingham & Fazeley Canal, and the Birmingham Canal Main Line. The Main Line, pictured here looking west, was

Tabacón / Arenal, Costa RicaWhile walking through some dense rain forest in the Hanging Bridges area of the Arenal volcano, I came across two male Anole lizards - both simultaneously inflating their dewflaps. The males pump up these these brightly colored dewflaps to attract females for mating - strutting their stuff, you might say.

Quebrada Azul, Costa RicaAfter stopping at a macadamia farm advertising fresh macadamia nuts - but then finding out they weren't harvesting until the following week - we continued on our way back to Liberia via a short cut that the macadamia owner suggested. It was all pretty rugged dirt road over a ridge top crested with fascinating wind turbines - and cows. Lots of big eared cows. They

McGraw-Hill Executive Dining / New York CityIf a salad has glorious hunks of slab bacon, fine slices of a hard-boiled egg, chopped ham, crumbled Roquefort cheese and it's dripping with dressing, can it still be considered a salad? According to Robert H. Cobb - when he scavenged the fridge late at night in 1937 - that is exactly what it is. The tasty creation happened to catch on with the

Discovery Cruises / AntarcticaAntarctica is exactly what you would expect - penguins, icebergs and old people. A wonderland to explore for the retired cruising crowd. Crystal ice water, endless days, animal poop and on-board bingo. Antarctica has it all. Pack warm. Bring boots. See it while you can.

Señor Frog's / BahamasSeñor Frog's Caribbean chain bar/restaurant is the kind of place you need to visit at least once - though you may not remember the night so it's possible to end up there again by accident - as we more recently did in Aruba. It's loud and deceptively expensive. A party scene of binge drinking followed by the inebriated removal of clothing in public, typically by those who

Royal Clipper / CaribbeanWhen you take your sailing certification tests, they make you demonstrate your ability to tie a series of intricate knots. The important skills required to successfully tie those knots will immediately vaporize from your brain minutes after the exam. The rabbit comes out of the hole and which way around the tree?

Rutgers University / New Brunswick, New JerseyVoorhees Mall is a grassy area (28 acres!) located on the College Avenue Campus of Rutgers University. Not the typical image that comes to mind when you think of a Jersey mall. Voorhees has an eclectic mix of architectural styles, offering many of the older and historic academic buildings on campus.

Mücsarnok - Kunsthalle / Budapest, HungaryIf you subway or trolley just out of city center, you'll find Hero's Square and City park. A great place to stroll around, ice skate or get some culture at the Museum of Fine Arts - designed in the eclectic-neoclassical style in 1906.

Mauna Kea Observatory / HawaiiShould you find yourself on Saddle Road crossing the Big Island in Hawaii, be sure to drive up to the peak of Mauna Kea. Spectacular moonscape views above the clouds. Besides the giant golfball space observatories, there's a rare permafrost lake to explore (assuming that you aren't too winded from the altitude.) You can just coast all the way back down to the

Ponte Santa'Angelo / Rome , ItalyFor those who have seen Angels and Demons (which I highly recommend), you will recognize the Castel Sant'Angelo in the background. In the movie, Castel Sant'Angelo is seen as the last existing church of the Illuminati. The book also emphasized the Passetto di Borgo, an 800m long secret passage from the Vatican to the castle which was commissioned by Pope

West 16th St / New York, New YorkUp until the mid-1960's, this building served as the headquarters for the National Maritime Union. Its signature portal windows look out over the Hudson River, carrying through the nauticalness of it all. It has been converted into a "hot spot" boutique hotel, fitting right in with the quirkiness of the meatpacking district - an area which diligently serves the

Times Square / New York, New YorkAs if Times Square wasn't already a disaster, last week Mayor Bloomberg began his 6 month experiment of closing off Broadway from 46th St to 42nd St to vehicular traffic. While the concept isn't so bad as the city can always use less taxi, bus and car traffic in already congested areas - whoever made the decision to put the cheap plastic lawn chairs out there so

Most sculptures were erected between 1683 and 1714 and depict various saints and patron saints. Beginning in 1965, all of the statues have been systematically replaced by replicas and the originals have been exhibited in the lapidarium of the National Museum. I'm not very good at

Auschwitz I / Auschwitz, PolandI recently finished reading The Boy in Striped Pyjamas which once again brought back to mind the atrocities carried out at the three concentration camps built by the Germans in Auschwitz (or "Out-With" as it is called by Bruno). Millions upon millions of people were systematically murdered here, primarily Jews but also non-Jewish Poles, Czechs, Yugoslavs, French,

The Medieval Walls / York, EnglandFrom the top of the medieval city walls of York, I shot into this variegated Norway Maple tree growing up against the stone. I've seen alot of variegated vegetation but I think this is the first maple I've come across.

Pollywogg Hollër / Belmont, New YorkTonight I am spending the night with this lovely. Deep in the woods - pitch dark - alone - in the wood loft. If I scream, will anyone hear me. She will - she once was one of us, afterall.

Washington Convention Center / Washington, DCI've posted several previous photos of the art and architecture of this building. For public architecture and for a convention center, it definitely has some unique spacial experiences.

Cortlandt Alley (Tribeca) / New York, New YorkWhile we have Central Park and a plethora of other smaller pockets of nature scattered throughout the city, it is urban survivors like this that deserve the recognition. Manhattan is a harsh environment and when I see strands of green growing out of concrete pushing upwards to find both sunlight and nourishment - I wish them nothing but success.

Franklin Street (Tribeca) / New York, New YorkOne thing to say about New York City, there's lots of interesting street art - some good; some not so good.

Plaza San Martin / Buenos Aires, ArgentinaThe beautiful Plaza San Martin in the Retiro neighborhood of Buenos Aires was in full bllom of the Silk Floss Tree, also known as the "drunken tree". After taking advantage of the marvelously delicious and inexpensive Malbecs, I can appreciate the name.

The Arboretum @ JMU / Harrisonburg, VirginiaI was scrolling through the thousands of photos I have taken and came across this great dog shot. It was right around this time of year; I had just gotten Argyle through Airedale Rescue and we took a road trip to Harrisonburg, Virginia to visit one of my kids at James Madison. She had been a neglected pup and was loving the new found attention.

On the Waters of the CaribbeanWhat more needs to be said - the sheer beauty of sailing the Caribbean speaks for itself. While I'm not heading to the Caribbean, I am on my way back home to NYC!

Cartagena De Indias Cathedral / Cartagena, ColombiaLocated on the Plaza de Bolívar, the main cathedral of Cartagena is a beautiful example of Latin American colonial architecture - having been built in the late 16th century. The city of Cartagena De Indias was discovered by the Spanish in the early 16th century and immediately grew into a strategically located port for shipping and slave trade.

Pinfold Lane / Kirk Smeaton, EnglandThis time of years, fields upon fields of rural England are in full bloom with rapeseed, a bright yellow flowering member of the family Brassicaceae (mustard or cabbage family). They are really quite stunning; from a distance the fields appear as vast carpets of brilliant sunshine. This was taken around 8pm against a setting sun.

Waterloo Bridge / London, EnglandWaterloo Bridge is a road and foot traffic bridge crossing the River Thames. Thanks to its location at a strategic bend in the River Thames, the views of London from the bridge are widely held to be the finest from any spot at ground level. The view looking up is pretty cool, as well.

Curbar Gap / Curbar, EnglandWith a very early departure yesterday from Birmingham up into the Peaks District, I was able to catch a stormy morning sky as the sun was rising behind this stone barn. Fortunately, the rest of the day turned out nice.

Soufrière, St. LuciaAfter finishing up an obviously stressful day at school, this little one just needed the comfort of her thumb to get her the rest of the way home. We could all use a good thumbsucking now and again, I suppose - if it were only that easy.

C Train Platform @ W 23rd / New York, New YorkIt's a strange phenomena, waiting for the subway. People continually "bob" their heads out from behind the steel columns on the platform to see if they can spot a distant headlight in the darkness - as if it will somehow get the train there sooner.

Llanhamlach, WalesI've spent the past few days in Wales outside of Cardiff. While Llanlamlach is further inland to the northeast, this is fairly typical of the rustic Welsh countryside - though where I am at the moment is in the coal mining areas suffering significantly from the lack of a sustainable local economy.

High Street / Birmingham, EnglandIt's rare to see the accordion being played much anymore - especially by a young boy. I suspect it was largely due to the particular song they were playing, but the scene had a very melancholy feel to it.

These runners were captured passing under the Jubilee Bridge at about the 25.5 mile mark - just a half mile (plus 385 yards) to go. Up until 1908 a marathon was 26 miles - but is now 26 miles, 385 yards. Why you may ask? Because, for the 1908 Olympics in London,
