This past weekend David and I went to Philadelphia to support our friend, Ashley, run her first marathon. We managed to get a room at a hotel that was right on the marathon route. At around 7:15 or so we looked out the balcony and took some shots of the runners at the .5 mile mark. I attempted to take a motion shot similar to the ones you see of cars driving at night where all you can see are lines where the headlights were. I had an idea what it would look like, but it came out a bit different. I particularly like the effect of everyones’ white shoes.

You can see a slideshow of my photos from the marathon here.

In an effort to work more with my hands (since I sit at the computer all day) I signed up for an Enameling on Metal class at the Torpedo Factory. The class is nine weeks, and on week seven I finally found my style within enamel. I have been fiddling with different techniques over the weeks and haven’t been too excited about anything that’s come out. This past week (week seven), I worked on two pieces that I am pretty psyched about.
