Orange Sunset

I really liked the colours of the sky here! :)

empty bleacher seats

At an A's vs Mariners game in June, 2005. Taken with a Lumix FZ3 at 1/400, f4.6, ISO 80, converted to b&w in picasa.

Statues

Nikon D100, Sigma 15-30mm

I took this grab shot from across the street while walking up Grant Avenue in Chinatown. I didn't have the optimal lens for this type of shot so I had to crop a bit in PS.

Muni in the Morning

I caught the morning sunlight reflecting off the Muni Metro tracks on Judah Street.

oh geez..

The snow has returned. Crossing my fingers that it will melt by the end of the day :)

Stairway to Discovery

Nikon F4, Nikkor 85mm f1.8D, Kodak Tri-X

I thought this scene with the lines made by the stairway would be interesting. I waited for someone to walk into the frame before snapping a few shots. This one with the little girl looking over the railing was the most interesting.

Airplane Engine Detail

Nikon F4, Nikkor 50mm f1.8D, Kodak Tri-X

This was seen at the Hiller Aviation Museum in San Carlos.

Dolph, I finally made it there! It's a very interesting place. I had no idea that there were so many aviation related innovations and milestones that happened right here in the SF Bay Area.

Superbird Reflection

Nikon D100

Does anyone remember the 1970 Plymouth Superbird? Here is its signature tail section and rear wing reflected on the Superbird's cousin, a Dodge Charger.

Historic Victorian Row, Presidio, San Francisco

Nikon D100, Sigma 15-30mm

This is the oldest surviving Victorian Streetscape in San Francisco. Many of the original Victorian homes in S.F. were destroyed in the 1906 earthquake. This row of Victorians, formerly married officers' quarters in the Presidio, survived and were kept intact and preserved through the years by the U.S Army.

They were recently restored, and they were open for tours over the last two weekends. We were there yesterday.

I took the opportunity to exercise my Sigma 15-30mm and D100.

Things have been slow around here. Where did everyone go??? I see that we lost a few people due to the Blogger to Google switchover. That's understandable because people are busy, and can easily lose interest.
