📷 Glass Photo Walk

📷 Glass Photo Walk

On Sunday I went to a meetup and photo walk with the team behind Glass. It was wonderful to see old friends, and to make new ones. Glass has a great community, as has become more evident with these gatherings.

A silhouette of people walking under a shade structure with a basketball hoop in the middle. Many of the people have cameras in their hands. There’s a red brick building and a field in the distance.

Close in view of speckled shadows on a red and blue play structure. Some blurred green trees in the background.

A man holds a camera pointing straight at the viewer. He’s lit by the warm glow of the afternoon sun. The entire background is blue sky with a few puffy clouds.

A man holds a camera pointing to the left of the viewer. He’s standing atop a structure. The background is blue sky with a couple of puffy clouds.

People with cameras are scattered about taking photos in a field with green grass and rose beds. In the background is a house with trees on both sides, and a bit of blue sky above.

A shiny motorcycle with some bright blue parts is parked by the side of a road. In the background is some yellow metal scaffolding, orange traffic cones, and some trees lining the other side of the road.

Close up of a stack of green plastic pipes. Each one is about 12 to 18 inches in diameter.

Two men work on a large mural on the side of a building. They are applying white paint over a previous mural that is mostly hidden except for two red roses and the partial word, “PORTLA”. The men are standing in a hanging platform with the words “HAND OF DOGG” in large letters.

Some sonic explorations with modular synthesis.

Listener beware: It’s a bit rough round the edges 😆

Just before the 10 minute mark I came across some fun computer-voicey sounds so I settled in to relish those with minor variations until the end.

Recorded directly with iPhone camera and mic so the sound is not the best it can be. Someday I expect to do a better job at recording the actual sound.

A gathering of people in a city park in an open field surrounded by trees. The ground is speckled with shadows. They blue sky is specked with clouds.

Side view of a vintage car in red white and black parked on the other side of the street. There’s a tall green hedge behind, blue sky above, and road in the foreground. The car has the speckled shadow of a tree on it.

Backyard view from a hammock under a pergola with a grapevine on it. In the distance the sky has clouds lit in the yellow orange light of the sunset.

A puffy cloud with blue skies and distant wispy clouds behind it.

I got 4/10 correct before I gave up on this AI or Art quiz 😬
