noreply@blogger.com (UrbanPer$pectiV BLOG :) — Sat, 10 Mar 2012 15:18:01 PST

Hawaii came to the Philly International Flower Shower this year. Spectators were treated to island floral arrangements, and a general feel of Hawaiian paradise was in the air throughout the Convention Center and immediate surrounding areas.

#KONY2012

noreply@blogger.com (UrbanPer$pectiV BLOG :) — Thu, 08 Mar 2012 15:55:09 PST

KONY 2012. Its about an infamous terrorist warlord named Joseph Kony in the Uganda region of Africa. He & his forces kidnap children & recruit them into his "army" to commit horrendous atrocities against others in that region.

We already have American Advisors in the region to help local forces find , capture & bring to justice Joseph Kony, but the only way the government will commit them there further is if there is enough interest by us in bringing this crook to justice

Shot this sunset looking thru a window . I barely caught the full ball of the sun as I was standing on a bed to take this shot, as the sun was swiftly fading behind the trees. I didn't think much of this shot til I saw it on my pc monitor. (you can click on it to see it larger)

#OccupyPhilly : THIS is what Democracy Looks Like

noreply@blogger.com (UrbanPer$pectiV BLOG :) — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 15:41:26 PDT

This is spontaneous vid footage from my handy G2 #Droid.
I went down to #OccupyPhilly on 10/15/11 .. the day of GLOBAL marches. I really had no intention of shooting anything, mainly due to limited battery life "filming"

But I got caught up in it :) I originally streamed this live to my U-stream "channel" as the march was happening.
Came home & saw the footage... Definately a raw street type feel to it.. and this is what I was going for.
You'll have to sit thru a 14 sec commercial ... then I recommend you fast forward to 2:50 . This is where the video "catches up" to the sound (I was shootin "live" "broadcasting" to my channel, so there's the bandwidth issues, lag time, frames per second deal #TechissueMeaCulpa LOL
The pic may "stick" at one or two more points in the beginnin.. but give it a cpl seconds to catch up ...

#UrbanPerspectivObservatory : Selene

noreply@blogger.com (UrbanPer$pectiV BLOG :) — Mon, 25 Oct 2010 15:15:03 PDT

I've always had a fascination with that "thing" LOL! So whenever the conditions are right for shooting ... I will.
There's an actual science dedicated to the study of the moon "Lunar Science" called Selenology (u can clik link for Wiki def)
I shot this around 4AM EST "south" of Philly . Last month I noticed a full moon (they occur every 28-30 days) beamin thru my window one early morning. There are slats missing from the venetian blinds towards
the top of the window, so this provides me an UNPRECEDENTED view of the night sky. And thus the Twitter #UrbanperspectivObservatory "tag" was born. You can clik that tag for up to the minute Observatory updates :)
Anyways, there's only a certain timeframe to shoot from my "angle" . Remember, everything's in motion, including the rotating Earth, as well as the moon itself in it's own orbit around the EARTH .
Trying to shoot this is nearly impossible & takes patience, including tripod n "manual" focus . This is one out of a series of 47 shots that was the keeper (for me )
Also opened the window for the cleanest shot possible. If I remember, I think I had a polarized filter on this shot Togs clik here for EXIF info

American Cancer Society Bike a Thon : Philadelphia

noreply@blogger.com (UrbanPer$pectiV BLOG :) — Sun, 11 Jul 2010 11:35:12 PDT

Woke up early this morning and upon learning of the 38th Annual American Cancer Society Bike a Thon about to happen in Philly, I immediately grabbed the Canon & hurried down there to see this for myself!
Keep in mind this was at 6:00 AM. when I found out about this event on the local news , and less than a half hr before the event started They shut down the Ben Franklin Bridge which connects Philadelphia with New Jersey. I knew traffic would be light at that time of the morning, so I jumped on I-95N coming up
from Delaware County.
As I got into the area, I saw thousands upon thousands of bikes..... all there to support this cause. They were still lining up awaiting to begin the trek over the bridge.
You may click on the images to see them LARGER.

I'm glad I made that spontaneous trip down there, and hope my pics can in some way bring awareness to this cause
