Flying Whale

@Shuva Brata Deb: Well . . . it's a bit risky. I do it very casually and openly, so that no one thinks I'm trying to hide something. Also, I don't do it around the security check points, but only near the gates or outside. Still . . . and especially at places like LAX . . . they are probably not happy with photographers. :-)

@Kelvin Chan: No HDR. I do have a tendency to bump up the contrast quite a bit on my photos. Plus, it was a rainy/cloudy day (yes it does rain in southern california) which gave a very nice light. Also, I like to zoom in on details of objects. I feel this "abstracts" ordinary scenesa and objects, gives us a different perspective and possibly an altered feeling, mood and/or meaning.
