07/11/11 - Synacor booze cruise with unexpected L lenses!

IT guy! I forget his name

Tom Embt!

The controls to the Miss Buffalo

USS Littlerock

Ben's got a drink

Geese!

Chilling on the lower deck

The first picture I took with an L lens! It turns out Tom has some serious photographic hardware and let me play with it

The Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM

Tom takes a shot with his 70-200mm

Lens hood!

Eric and.. Eric!

That's a lot of birds

Darin

Mike considers his meal

This closeup of Topaz is sort of weird, but I like it

A super closeup of Adam with Tom's 100mm L lens

Macro mode on my meal

A nice shot of Veena taken with Tom's 70-200mm f/4L

Veena with the bridge

Water around around the bridge support

Boat!

I forget this guy's name

Bird

I don't know this guy's name either

John points out the Coast Guard ship

There it is!

Big sphere?

The Peace Bridge

This guy seems really intense

Speedboat!

Driving the Miss Buffalo under the very low bridge

You can't really tell here, but we had no more than 18 inches of clearance

Eric looks off the front of the ship

Bird landing

Tom tries out a wider lens

Fisherman dude!

Get any bites?

Bike people

I've never gone through a lock before!

At this point we were close enough that bike girl noticed me

Coming up to the lock

Another guy fishing

Seagull!

I'm a big fan of the feather detail

This guy worked on the lock

Birds on some tower

Sukumar!

I should probably learn more of my coworkers' names..

Tom with his 50d

I love those petal lens hoods

Fellow foosball champ Mike! Spiffy glasses

A creepy closeup of Darin's eyeball. I realized later that I actually focused on my own reflection

What's with that face, Eric?

Seagull!

A thumbs up from John

More people fishing!

Darin with a big movable bridge behind him

The movable bridge

Buoy

Topaz hanging with some other Synacorians

Veena wanted me to take some pictures of some water dripping out of a cup

Adam's moving on from Synacor next week. Good luck with your freelancing!

Ben kept asking if I was drunk yet..

Tom and Jen Embt!

Veena caught me taking her picture

Kids checking out our boat

Lots of trucks waiting to get into the country

Taking a walk by the water

I love this picture. "Do work", "Danger: Keep Off" and "Buffalo's Finest" all apply. I call it "Buffalo's Finest"

Tim and Adam checking out the scenary

The Peace Bridge

What the hell is this guy trucking?

Veena telling a story to John

Synacorians!

Mike hanging out at the HR girls' table. Sarah tried hiding

When people hide from my camera, it just makes me try harder, haha

Lots of sailbots

I think this is Melissa.. goddamn, I need to learn some names

Heyyyy!

Sarah made a face and apparently thought I wouldn't put it online.. surprise!

Veena forgot today was the boat day and didn't bring her nifty Nikon. iPhone pics it is!

Taking a picture of the USS Littlerock

Veena had fun

The grain elevator I drive by every day

The Spirit of Buffalo!

Hey, how do I get on that boat?
