The Arizona Justice League of Photographers Rides - the Train III

Thought I'd post a few photographs from the most recent Justice League photography shoot.

These pictures were taken by Eric the Photographer. As the handle implies, he actually takes pictures for a living. Eric is our Yoda, our Mr. Miagi, our Seargent Carter...

Got to tell you, I'm really digging this reflection image. From left to right, that's yours truly,Clif the Lawyer, Mario the Chef, and Eric the Photographer.

The streets of Phoenix were absolutely deserted.


Look, here's a shot of me talking on a cell phone next to a phone booth. Bet you don't see that everyday.
Then again, maybe you do. It could be that there's an old phone booth in front of your office and every stinking day some joker stands next to the booth, talking on his cell phone while shouting, "Hey look at me. I'm standing next to a phone booth talking on a cell phone. Bet you don't see that every day."



Here's the historic Luhrs Tower. Built in 1929, this building served as the backdrop for a scene in Hitcock's Psycho as Janet Leigh crossed the street with the bank deposit she was supposed to make for her boss.


These guys were singing:
I come from the land down under
Where beer does flow and men chunder
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run you better take cover.
Weird, huh?



It's all about the clouds.



Here's Mario the Chef yucking it up with Marge and Hank at The Coney Island Grill.





The Arizona Justice League of Photographers shoot it out in downtown Phoenix.




Absolutely nothing happened to any of us while were standing in front of this building.

I like all these pics, especially the architectural shots and the cell phone/pay phone pose. If I ever upgrade from my 1996 Motorola StarTac cell phone, I'm going to buy a retro bluetooth handset so I can keep the cell phone out of sight and look like I'm talking into a detached old-fashioned Ma Bell handset.
