Description: It was a crazy past few days in San Francisco.  The Giants won the World Series and the entire city celebrated yesterday with a parade that marched through the city.  Hopefully it won’t be a once in a life time opportunity, but you never know… You can view the rest of the images from […]

Project: BW$P | More from the project Meet Chad. Chad was standing in the middle of the sidewalk, barefooted with a cup filled with spare change, a dollar and a cigarette. As I approached Chad, he only kept staring at me, not saying anything.  I approached him slowly and said, “Hey, how are you doing?”  He […]

Meet David. Along with all of the other performers along Jefferson St. at the Fisherman’s Wharf, David sat. He was not harassing anyone for change, nor even actually physically asking, just getting ready to light a cigarette and holding his “Need $$$ 4-Weed” sign. I approached him and explained the project I was working on […]

Description:  No real story behind this one, just an image that caught my eye and the rest was history.  You can only take pictures of things you see if you have your camera with you and ready to go. Location:  Financial District, San Francisco, California Date Taken: January 8, 2010 Camera:  Canon 20D Lens:  Canon 18.0-200.0 mm […]

Description: I was going back through some old pictures and had the idea to crop this image several times, as well as process each crop differently, to make a montage type of display.  Well, I didn’t really like how it turned out, but I liked this crop.  Sometimes experimentation with cropping is all it takes to […]

It has been awhile since I’ve taken at portrait for this project due to two things: 1) I have been slacking on having my camera with me all the time (not something I like to admit) and 2) I keep finding myself without small bills available. Well, over the past several weeks, I have seen […]

Description:  Alcatraz is another one of those landmarks that constantly amazes me.  The amazement stems from not only the site of this old prison, sitting alone on an island 1.5 miles off the coast of San Francisco, but also, the fact that people flock to see this prison day-in and day-out.  The view of the […]

Description:  I recently read that the Canon 18.0-200.0 mm lens, when shooting at 200mm, works very well as a macro lens.  So, I put it to the test here.  I found it doesn’t exactly do “macro” exactly, but does allow you to get up close and personal with your subject while providing an awesome depth […]

Description:  It is amazing the things you see while walking around with your camera.  I can’t say I would not have seen this fire hydrant had I not had my camera with me, but I’m certain I would not have cared as much about the “I Love You” graffiti on it. If you are photo enthusiast […]

Description:  I took a stroll with my camera during lunch yesterday, as I try to do as often as possible.  When I came to the Transamerica Pyramid, I stopped and stared for awhile.  It’s amazing how many times you can walk by a building and still be in awe when seeing it. Before capturing the […]
