Well, the photo challenge didn’t quite work out. It had a good multi-week run, but my schedule got busy and my creativity dried up, so the challenge has lapsed. I think that I’ll just be posting favorite photos on an approximately daily basis to my Flickr account.

So, what’s been happening in the photo world? Well, I’ve had eight photos published so far in the circulation-10,000 Stanford Daily. Two have made the front page, one of the others was miscredited. I’m really enjoying my little taste of photojournalism.

Of course, not all events are right for the paper. I’m fond of many of my photos from last weekend’s Big Freeze, and while the hockey team liked them, they couldn’t find traction among the editorial staff. Oh well. I can take solace in the fact that about a half-dozen of them have become Facebook profile photos.

How about that election? If your polling places were like the ones here, you had a long wait. Here’s a photo of the line for Stanford’s polling place (the GCC):

Some of the people had to wait several hours to cast a vote. Wow. I wonder what the wait will be like in November?
