At long last, I present the latest in my series of transit map-styled designs. This time, we have the U.S. Highway system (that’s U.S. Routes, not to be confused with the newer Interstate Highway system – which as most of you well know, I have already mapped).
E-Road Diagram and TGV Diagram – Posters Now Available
Apr 29, ’11

These two diagrams, which I consider to be some of my best work, have never quite raised the same level of interest that my Interstate as Subway and Amtrak as Subway diagrams have. However, I have had a few queries requesting posters, so I have found a way to make them available to people who want them.
If you live in Europe, you can buy these prints from Artflakes. Click on the links below to go to the product page for each poster.
If you live in the US, visit Society6. Click on the links below to go to the product page for each poster.
If you live elsewhere, choose whichever of the two services gives you the best price. Bear in mind that this is single-print, on-demand printing, so the prices are a little higher than my other posters, where I can negotiate a better price for printing in bulk over a long period of time. Also, due to the small type and fine detail in these posters, I strongly recommend that you only purchase the larger sizes available.

My original Eisenhower Interstate System in the Style of H.C. Beck’s London Underground Diagram is one of my most successful pieces of design, with almost 85,000 views on Flickr, countless posters sold, and inclusion in the excellent book Mapping America: Exploring the Continent (highly recommended for map geeks!).

For a while now, I’ve wondered how to go about selling my photos. While we have a great Canon Pro 9000 printer at home, maintaining an Etsy store, making flawless prints and having to mail them out was too much hard work.
This is where Society6 comes in. You post your photos and set your price, and they produce the prints and mail them out. Perfect! So, if you’re looking for a nice photo or art print for your home or office, head on over and take a look. My Society6 store is here.
SOLD OUT: Washington, D.C. Metro Diagram Posters

In February this year, I set myself the task of redesigning Washington, D.C.’s ubiquitous Metro Map (read my original blog post here). What began as a simple design exercise (mainly to see just how different I could make the diagram look) has grown into something much bigger: my design has appeared on DC blogs and newspapers and has generated a lot of public discussion. Many people have asked for posters, and – finally – here they are.
Now sold out.
St. Johns Bridge

Camera: Canon Rebel XT
Lens: Canon EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM
Exposure: 30 seconds @ ƒ/14
ISO: 100
Focal Length: 40mm
Here’s a new photo that I’m extremely happy with. The St. Johns Bridge is a beautiful gothic-styled bridge from the 1930s on Portland’s northern edge, and is something of a photography magnet. I’ve been drawn to it myself with some mixed results in the past, but this shot certainly hit the mark. I used my new 6xND filter to lengthen the exposure time up to 30 seconds, even though the sky was still quite bright: the sun had set, but that beautiful summer dusk was lingering on. The combination of that glorious purple gradient in the sky with the light streams left by vehicles on the bridge add up to a very satisfying shot.
