I should photoshop this. An energetic black-and-white dog snoozing on black-and-white tiles on Florida Street in Buenos Aires.

Crane on the docks in Buenos Aires...at night. I left the tripod in the plane, so used the camera bag instead.

ART! (Meaning I couldn't ever do this again.) An attempt at a long exposure on the docks. Interesting to notice the "dashed lines" -- those were NOT blinking lights, so the camera (Canon EOS 40D) must be turning the sensor off.

Presidente Sarmiento Frigate. We payed the dollar to walk around inside. Well worth it, if you're a nerd. You can walk down to the boilers and see the main drive shaft (though, being nautical, its probably called something else).
