Wide angle view from Fenway Park, Loge Box 157, Row BB

Today’s photo is a photomerge of more than half a dozen photos taken from the seat I previously mentioned here. This would have been a great seat, had there not been people (fans, ushers, and vendors) walking in front of me constantly. There were very few pitches in which I could see both the pitcher and the batter and quite a few pitches in which I couldn’t see either.

It’s tough to tell, given the wide angle of the lens coupled with a photomerge in Photoshop of numerous pics, but David Ortiz is the batter against Ricky Romero. Big Papi hit his 399th career home run in this game as Romero was roughed up for just his second loss (eight victories) on the season.

I flew home from Boston today after about 12 days in New York and Boston. Great trip! Photos on the way…

Olve Eikemo (aka Abbath Doom Occulta) turns 39 today. I hope he has a headbanging good b-day.

Detroit catcher Alex Avila swings while A's catcher Kurt Suzuki prepares to catch

I spent a wonderful week in New York last week, including baseball games at Yankee Stadium and Citi Field. Today I’m in Boston, and tomorrow I will visit Fenway Park for the first time. I’m very excited.

Today’s photo is from a game in Oakland last month.

Københavns Rådhus' clock tower

Today’s photo of the Copenhagen City Hall clock tower was taken from an open window within the city hall building itself. On a different day I went up in the clock tower on a tour which was pretty cool.
