Photo-a-Day 2013: Week 3

If you’re following along, you already know about my “Photo of the Day” project on the blog. Along with my Lyric of the Day (#LOTD2013) project on Twitter, I’m keeping my senses of sight and sound active every day.

Here are the images from the third full week of 2013:

Picture This!? (Vol. 6, Kings Stanley Cup Run)

Last night, in celebration of the deal between owners and players to save what’s left of the 2013 NHL season, I was finally able to pull together a Flickr album of some of the better images from last spring’s Stanley Cup run by the L.A. Kings. The set of 50 images was shot in and around Staples Center between April and June. Below are a few sample images from the set. You can see the rest (50 in all) by simply clicking this link:
