Castro Muni Stop

Description: Another photograph from a random page in my Flickr photostream.  This one was taken while exploring the Castro neighborhood almost a year ago.  The two yellow Muni cable cars lined up perfectly for me as I was capturing other photographs from the Muni platform. Location: Castro, San Francisco Date Taken: July 21, 2008 Camera: […]

My Birthday At The Happiest Place On Earth

If you follow me on FriendFeed, Twitter or are a friend of mine on Facebook, you are probably already aware that I made a trip down to Anaheim, California this past weekend to visit the “happiest place on earth” — Disneyland.  I specifically made the trip down there to take advantage of their current birthday […]

Dorothy – BW$P

Meet Dorothy. As I headed to the bus stop from work today, I bumped into Dorothy on the corner of Pine and Montgomery asking for change.  I approached her and explained my BW$P Project.  She didn’t agree right away, but rather stated, “I’ve been sitting on this corner since 6am this morning and all I’ve […]

Jumping Into The Social Web

Over the weekend, I was talking with my mother about social networking, it’s many benefits and many pitfalls.  She runs a small business providing in-home senior care and just recently started to venture out into the world of social networking.  As most people new to social networking, she is completely overwhelmed.  My mother took the […]

Happy Father’s Day

Over the past few years, I have been wanting to make a trip down to San Diego (where my parents and grandparents live) and surprise my dad and grandpa with a visit and tickets to a Padres game. Well, I finally made that happen this year, though, it didn’t end up being a surprise due […]

I Was Told, This is the Way

Description: For today’s picture share, I decided to choose a random page from my Flickr photostream and post one of the pictures from that page.  I’ll probably do this again from time to time.  It really helped me find a deserving photograph that I had missed previously. This particular photograph was taken while waiting for […]

Moo.com – They Love To Print

Back in October, during a photo walk in Sacramento, Thomas Hawk handed out new business cards to his fellow friends and photogs and I remember thinking to myself, “Wow, these look and feel awesome!”  I asked Thomas where he ordered them from and his answer was Moo.com.  He was totally jazzed about them, mostly because […]

Got What It Takes

Description: Okay, I’ll admit it, I love black and white photography.  For every photograph I process in color, I almost always check to see what it would look like processed as black and white.  In a previous post, I argued that the true beauty of the subject does not come out in a color photograph, […]

Take Steps for Crohn’s and Colitis 2009

As advertised on the San Francisco BART system over the past few weeks, the Take Steps for Crohn’s and Colitis walk was this past weekend.  For the 3rd year in a row, I donated my photography services to the cause and as usual had a great time doing it.  For the second year, the event […]

My First Experience with BorrowLenses.com

I finally had the opportunity to rent some gear this past weekend for a wedding I was capturing.  I must say, renting gear is a lot of fun.  Renting really gives anyone plenty of  opportunity to try out new stuff without breaking the bank.  If you are local (in the San Francisco Bay Area), for […]

YBCA Donor Circle with Nick Cave and Ronald K. Brown

Last Friday, I had the privilege of capturing the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts (YBCA) display of Nick Cave’s art exhibit, “Meet Me in the Center of the Earth,” to a private reception of YBCA’s top donors. The event was rather short and sweet, but still very interesting.  You can read more about the […]
