<p>An announcement board on a disused platform at Ostkreuz station, Berlin.</p>
<p>A telephoto shot of the Odle group, some of the signature jagged peaks of the Dolomites. The cloud formations that whip through these teeth are a spectacle to behold.</p>
<p>Guitarists Joel Paterson (at right) and Andy Brown with drummer Alex Hall performing at Chicago's legendary Green Mill. <br /></p> <p>They play a mix of jazz, blues, and pedal-steel guitar pieces just about every Monday night and are well worth catching if you're in town.<br /></p>
<p>The light from sunrise coating the coast of Suðuroy.</p>
<p>A pretty corner store, no longer in use, somewhere in western Uruguay.</p>
