Frank Gehry in LA

Disneyhallposterous

Despite its silly and off-putting name, Frank Gehry's Disney Hall in downtown LA is a stunning building which has nothing to do with the cheapness of Disney's other enterprises.

Venice Beach sunset #photo

Sunsetposterous

Yeah, I know, sunsets. So last year.
This one however was probably one of the most spectacular sunsets I've ever seen.

Anish Kapoor @ The Royal Academy

I somehow managed to miss the exhibition itself, but at least I got to see the giant sculpture outside the Royal Academy.

Is this my best #photo of 2009?

I wanted to submit something to Flickr's 'Your best of 2009' pool, but wasn't even sure whether I had at least one pic that would qualify. But I couldn't face the prospect of trawling though my entire 2009 library.
So rather than spending weeks trying to find 'the one', I've submitted the image above which became my favourite picture by accident. I took it while testing some settings on my then new camera.
Hope you like it too.

Now bring on 2010.
